Power Drive Inspection
WARNING
To prevent serious injury, inspect your Power Drive. The following inspection procedures should be performed on a daily basis:
1.Make sure Power Drive is unplugged.
2.Inspect the power cord and plug for damage. If the plug has been modified or if the cord is damaged, do not use the Power Drive until the cord has been replaced.
3.Inspect the Power Drive for any broken, missing, misaligned or binding parts as well as any other con- ditions which may affect the safe and normal opera- tion of the tool. If any of these conditions are present, do not use the Power Drive until any problem has been repaired.
4.Use tools and accessories that are designed for your Power Drive and meet the needs of your application. The correct tools and accessories allow you to do the job successfully and safely. Accessories suitable for use with other equipment may be hazardous when used with this Power Drive.
5.Clean any oil, grease or dirt from all equipment han- dles and controls. This reduces the risk of injury due to a tool or control slipping from your grip.
Inspect the cutting edges of your dies. If necessary, have them replaced prior to using the Power Drive. Dull or damaged dies can lead to binding and poor quality threads.
6.Clean metal shavings and other debris from the chip tray of the 418 Oiler. Check the level and quality of the thread cutting oil. Replace or add oil if necessary.
NOTE! Thread cutting oil lubricates and cools the threads during the threading operation. A dirty or poor grade cutting oil can result in poor thread quality.
