2.2 BB5000 FEATURES
The BB5000 can be used easily in small workspaces. CLIMAX’s mounting com-
ponents provide the flexibility to handle tough boring jobs. The BB5000's through-
bar design allows you to mount the rotational drive and feed unit anywhere along
the bar. This flexibility means the BB5000 will complete your job where others
would not even fit.
This portable boring machine is a versatile tool. Its broad array of accessories
enables the BB5000 for use in blind boring, line boring, drilling, facing, threading,
valve repair, and trepanning. A special interface kit allows quick attachment and
precise alignment of a welder to the BB5000’s mounting fixtures. CLIMAX also
offers the industry’s broadest range of electric, hydraulic, and pneumatic power
options for added flexibility.
The BB5000 is a highly configurable machine with many options and accessories,
though this manual only covers the basic assembly components. If a specific
machine application requires accessories, contact CLIMAX for more information.
This manual also describes the operation (Section 4 on page 51) and maintenance
(Section 5 on page 57) of your BB5000. The machine is designed for on-site main-
tenance of heavy-duty industrial equipment. All parts meet CLIMAX’s strict qual-
ity standards. For maximum safety and performance, read the entire manual before
operating the machine.
2.3 COMPONENTS
The BB4500 and BB5000 have the following components.
2.3.1 Rotational drive unit
The RDU with sealed lubrication has worm gear reduction
and may be mounted anywhere along the bar. A key within
the collet drives the boring bar. The clamp ring holds the
RDU to the spherical bearing mounting bracket. A clamp col-
lar provides a snug, sliding fit between the RDU and the bar,
or it may be clamped tight for facing operations.
