STEP 9
(Machining The Rotor)
NOTE:
Steps 6-8 must be completed successfully
before proceeding or damage to
the rotor or lathe may occur.
1. Turn the outside Cutter Hand Wheel clock wise until
the Cutter just touches the surface of the rotor.
2. Zero the Cutter Hand Wheel Micrometer. Hold the
outer knurled knobs firmly with your left hand, then
carefully rotate the inner knurled dial indicator knobs
clockwise with your right hand until ZERO is positioned at
top dead center and lined up with the tick mark. This will
give you an initial zero-set starting point.
Note: there are both millimeter and tenths of inches
graduations on the micrometer.
3. Back off the Cutter.
4. Repeat step 1-3 for the inside Cutter.
5. Turn the Cross Feed Hand Wheel clockwise until the
Cutters are just past the inside edge of the face of the
rotor, being careful not to run the carbide inserts into the
hub portion of the rotor.
6. Adjust each Cutter Hand Wheel clockwise to remove
approximately 5 - 6 thousandth of and inch of
material. Remember to measure from the zero mark on
the micrometer.
7. Tighten each cutter locking knob.
8. Tighten the Spindle Locking Knob.
9. Tighten the Spindle Handle Wheel Locking Knob.
10. Tighten the on the Cross Feed Hand Wheel Locking
Knob.
11. Loosen the Cross Feed Lock Knob.
12. Tighten the Spindle Hand Wheel Locking Knob.
13. Check all clearances closely to make sure that nothing
will “crash” when the power is turned on and the rotor starts
rotating.
NOTE:
It may help to manually turn the rotor
by hand to check all clearances.
ENSURE THAT THE TWIN CUTTING TIPS ARE
CLEAR OF THE ROTOR PRIOR TO TURNING
ON THE SPINDLE MOTOR.
