An inspection to find some damaged portion which might have been caused by shock during the transportion, all surfaces of exposed machined are coated with a antirust liquid. Before moving turret and cross-slide, leadscrew, rack……etc, these surface should be thoroughly cleaned down the antirust liquid by soft brush and solvent. This is very important since it prevents any dirt and grit which may have accumulated on the antirust liquid from working under the sliding members and causing undue wear. CAUTION : DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR TO CLEAN, WHICH WILL REDUCE THE MACHINE'S LIFE. |
It is very important to obtain machine's accuracy that foundation and installation of machine are need. For the reason, a perfect foundation with proper thickness and pressure-enduring space must be provided. (In general case, a thickness of 30mm (12") is considered to be enough). The machine has six adjustable feet at the corner of the pedestal for leveling machine, it is necessary to use shims under pedestal feet. When adjust foot loosen set screw, then raiser or lower foot with a pin wrench so that all six feet rest on the floor. Tighten set screw to setting. |

| Inverter unit "A" is used to perform dynamic braking. In addition, discharge resistor "B" shortens braking time (Figure 9). | ![]() Figure 9-Electric Switch Case |
| For allow belts to equalize their tension, must check belt tension. To tighten belts, first, loosen nut "N" (Figure 10) then turn screw "O" (Figure 10) to lower motor plate and to tighten belts equalize their tension. | ![]() Figure 10-Belt Adjustment |
The collet closer in place without using collet when running the machine, that may damage the collet closer. So must remove the collet closer when using jaw chucks, face plates, fixture plates or other nose type fixtures. When cleaning the machine need to remove the collet closer for prevent leading of chips between collet tube, and inside of spindle at rear end and collet threads. The methods of removal is described below :
|
|||||
Replace the collet closer first, must clean inside of the headstock spindle and outside diameter at rear of spindle where located adjusting nut "N" (Figure 14), apply a film of light oil on there. Do not force adjusting nut "N" (Figure 14) on spindle. If adjustment nut "N" (Figure 14) goes on tight, remove and check for burrs or scratches, then clean collet closer tube inside and outside apply a film of light oil on slip surface "T" (see figure 15) of the collet closer tube, replace collet closer and insert link pin "L" (figure 15).

| The six-station turret mounted on preloads ball bearing, can eliminates all play between the turret head and turret slide. The turret suit any operations such as, drilling, reaming, counterboring, threading, turning, boring…etc. The turret head is automatically unlocked and indexed to the next station, and locked by operation of feed lever "L" (Figure 19), the turret head has six 5/8" diameter standard tooling shanks. Turret slide travel is adjusted by stop screw "H" (Figure 20) one for each turret station. To limit travel for each turret station, loosen set screw "S" (Figure 20) and turn stop screw "H" (Figure 20) to required stop location. |
||||
|
||||
| The turret can be located at any location on the bed. First, loosen clamp screw “L” (Figure 21), then move turret assembly to required location, the bed has locate notches, so the turret assembly must clamp into notch to prevent turret end movement. The turret feed lever "L" (Figure 19) can adjusted for height and length to suit operator's "FEEL". Loosen clamp screw "D" (Figure 20), to move lever "L" (Figure 19) in the central neutral The turret head can than be hand swiveled past stations which are not tooled.
