Cutting Fluid System

The cutting fluid system delivers cutting fluid through a positionable nozzle and is turned ON/ OFF by the control panel cutting fluid pump switch and the valve lever near the base of the nozzle hose (see Figure 100).

Always use high quality cutting fluid in your coolant system and follow the manufacturer's instructions for diluting. The quick reference table shown in Figure 101 can help you select the appropriate cutting fluid.

Refer to Cutting Fluid System on Page 62 for detailed instructions on how to add or change cutting fluid. Check the cutting fluid regularly and promptly change it when it becomes overly dirty or rancid, or as recommended by fluid manufacturer.

BIOLOGICAL & POISON

HAZARD!

Use the correct personal

protection equipment

when handling cutting

fluid. Follow federal, state,

and fluid manufacturer

requirements for proper

disposal.

Running the pump without adequate fluid in the tank may permanently damage it. This is abuse and is not covered by the warranty.

To use the cutting fluid system on your lathe:

1.Make sure the tank is properly serviced and filled with cutting fluid, and that you wear the necessary personal protection equipment.

2.Position the cutting fluid nozzle for your operation.

3.Use the control panel cutting fluid pump switch to turn the coolant pump ON.

4.Adjust the flow of cutting fluid by using the valve lever near the base of the nozzle hose.

Note: Promptly clean any splashed cutting fluid from the floor to avoid a slipping hazard.

General Note: Cutting fluids are used for heavy-duty lathe operations and production turning. Oil-water emulsions and synthetic cutting fluids are the most common for typical lathe operations. Sulferized oils often are used for threading. For small projects, spot lubrications can be done with an oil can or brush, or omitted completely.
