Preselecting the speed (option)
On units with setting wheel 6, the speed can be set with the setting wheel 6 depending on the
range of application.
In general, the speed should be set so that chips are produced during milling
and not just dust. If necessary, reduce the speed until visible chips form. Please
observe the speed specications of the milling cutter manufacturer when using
the respective tool.
On units with control cable instead of the setting wheel, the speed can be set with an analogue
0-10 V DC signal depending on the range of application.
Please note: Even if the motor is switched on at the on/o switch, it will not start until it receives
a signal from the control at the gantry.
Once the motor is connected to the gantry, the speed can be controlled continuously between
between the minimum and maximum speed of the unit from the gantry.
The characteristic curve of the control voltage over the speed follows the path as shown.
The detailed settings you need to make depend on the portal or the software used.
Please contact the portal manufacturer directly for further information.
Changing tools
Switch the machine o at the on/o switch before making machine settings or
changing accessories or putting the machine away. This precaution prevents the
machine from starting accidentally.
Wear protective gloves when changing tools. The insert tool may heat up during
prolonged operations. The cutting edges of the tools used are sharp.
Changing collets
Loosen the union nut 1 and remove the tool with suitable cut protection
(caution: risk of injury).
Standard collet
Unscrew the union nut 1 with the collet 2. Press the collet 2 together at the through slot with
your thumb and index nger. Tilt the collet 2 down and remove it from the union nut 1.
