Loading Tooling

1.DISCONNECT MILL FROM POWER!

2.Clean any debris or surface substances from inside the spindle taper and the mating surface of the tooling.

Note: Debris or oil substances can prevent the tooling and spindle from properly mating. This condition can cause excessive vibration, poor cutting results, or tool/workpiece damage.

3.Place the mill in the low spindle speed range to keep the spindle from turning in the next steps.

4.Align the keyway of the tool with the protruding pin inside the spindle taper, then firmly push the tool into the spindle to seat it.

5.With one hand holding the tool in place, insert the drawbar into the spindle from the top of the head, then thread it into the tool (see Figure 47).

6.Tighten the drawbar until it is snug. Avoid overtightening, as it could make removing the tool difficult.

2.Place the mill in the low spindle speed range to keep the spindle from turning in the next step.

Note: Make sure that the drawbar has at least three threads engaged with the tooling in the next step to avoid damaging the threads of the drawbar or tool.

3.Loosen the drawbar a couple of turns, then tap the top of it with brass hammer to knock the tool loose at the bottom of the spindle.

4.Support the tool with one hand, then completely unthread the drawbar.
