The 3/8” hose with a T-fitting on the end can now be run to
the regulator. The T-fitting should be inserted into the
regulator stem first as shown in the picture at right.
Run the 2 1/4” blue tubes included with the pneumatics
manifold from push-in connectors on the manifold to the
push-in connectors marked
5
and
2
on the spindle.
The spindle’s push-in connector marked 5 should connect to
the lower of the
2
push-in connectors on the manifold (this is
the spindle’s drawbar which will actuate tool pickup and
release).
The spindle’s push in connector marked 2 should run to the
upper of the 2 push in connectors on the manifold with a
regulator (this is supply for positive pressure air to the
spindle which will remain open when the tool is on).
Turn on the pneumatics switch at the filter regulator manifold and verify that the pressure here is between
90 and 100 psi.
The small regulator for the spindle’s positive pressure should be set to 60 psi (note that the gauge reads
in 1/10ths). The red LED on the positive pressure solenoid should be on.
