Tooling Changes

Your mill/drill has an R-8 spindle taper. Follow these general procedures to install and remove R-8 tooling like drill chuck arbors, face cutters, or collets of your choice.

LACERATION HAZARD! Leading edges of end mills and other cutting tools can be very sharp. Protect your hands with gloves or a shop towel when handling.

To install tooling in the spindle:

1.DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

2.Carefully clean the R-8 tapered surface of the tooling and the spindle. Ensure that they are free of debris and burrs.

3.Insert the tooling into the spindle, and rotate it so the slot in the tool taper lines up with the pin inside of the spindle.

4.Press the tooling up firmly to seat it with the spindle taper.

5.Finger tighten the drawbar into place, then tighten the drawbar (Figure 13).

Note: Overtightening the drawbar makes tool removal difficult and stretches the threads of the tool and drawbar.
