Changing Cutting Fluid

When you replace the old cutting fluid, take the time to thoroughly clean out the chip drawer, catch tray, and fluid tank. The entire job only takes about a 1⁄2 hour when you are prepared with the proper materials and tools. Used cutting fluid is hazardous! Follow all applicable regulations for storage and disposal.

Items Needed:

To change the cutting fluid:

1.Position the coolant nozzle over the splash guard, so it is pointing behind the lathe. If you have the optional hose, connect it to the end of the coolant nozzle now.

2.Place the 5-gallon bucket behind the lathe and underneath the coolant nozzle. If you have the optional hose, place the hose in the bucket. Otherwise, you may need to hold the bucket up to the coolant nozzle to prevent coolant from splashing outside of the bucket.

3.Turn the cutting fluid pump ON (or have another person turn it ON if you are holding the bucket), and pump the old cutting fluid out of the tank. Turn the pump OFF immediately after fluid stops flowing.

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

4.DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!

5.Remove the vented cover shown in Figure 122 and slide the tank half way out of the base, as shown in Figure 123.

—If necessary, disconnect fluid hose from pump, where shown in Figure 124.

Note: The electrical conduit was purposely left long, so the tank can be removed without disconnecting wires from the pump. Do not disconnect electrical lines.

disconnected in order to remove tank for cleaning.

6.Pour out the remaining cutting fluid into your 5-gallon bucket and close the lid.

7.Wipe up the layer of swarf/residue on the bottom of the tank and put the waste in the second 5-gallon bucket. Flush out the tank with soapy water and drain into the second 5-gallon bucket.

8.Slide the tank partially into the base and reconnect fluid hose (if removed).

Tip: Leave one or more magnets at the bottom of the tank to collect metal chips and make cleanup easier next time.

9.Refill the tank with new cutting fluid, then slide the tank completely into the base.

10.CONNECT LATHE TO POWER.

11.Open the valve on the cutting fluid nozzle.

12.Turn the cutting fluid pump ON to verify that fluid cycles properly, then turn it OFF.

Note: It may take a few seconds for the pump to start circulating fluid; however, if fluid does not start coming out within the first minute, turn the pump OFF so you do not burn out the pump motor. Try priming the pump manually by pour cutting fluid down into the nozzle, then repeat Step 13.
