Changing Coolant

When you replace the old coolant, take the time to thoroughly clean out the chip drawer and fluid tank. The entire job only takes about a 1⁄2 hour when you are prepared with the proper materi- als and tools. Make sure to dispose of old fluid according to federal, state, and fluid manufac- turer's requirements.

To change the coolant:

1.Position the coolant nozzle over the back of the back splash so that it is pointing behind the lathe.

2.place the 5-gallon bucket behind the lathe and under the coolant nozzle. Have another person hold the bucket up to the nozzle to prevent coolant from splashing out.

3.turn the coolant pump ON and pump the old fluid out of the reservoir. Turn the pump OFF immediately after the fluid stops flowing.

Running the coolant pump longer than necessary for this procedure without adequate fluid in the tank may permanently damage it, which will not be covered under warranty.

4.DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!

5.remove the access cover from the side of the right stand, then slide the tank out.

Note: The fluid hose, pump cord, and ground wire (see Figure 125) were purposely left long, so the tank can be removed and dumped out without disconnecting them from the tank. However, the drain tube (see Figure 124 on Page 72) may come out of the tank when you empty it.

6.pour the remaining coolant into the 5-gallon bucket and close the lid.

7.Clean all the sludge out of the bottom of the tank and then flush it clean. Use the second bucket to hold the waste and make sure to seal the lid closed when done.

Dispose of the old coolant and swarf accord- ing to federal, state, and fluid manufacturer's requirements.
