4.1 Lathe Preparation
Prior to installing the bar feeder, the lathe installation must be completed and ready to produce
parts. If no lathe spindle work holding is installed or no compressed air the bar feeder cannot be
installed.
Caution should be taken, only qualified electrician or serviceman
should perform any electrical troubleshooting or maintenance to this
equipment.
Warning be sure lathe and bar feeder emergency stop is engaged
when performing the manual alingment procedure.
Lathe must be operational to perform the alingment and installation with the proper
chucking package.
On some lathe models there are covers for the spindle area. These covers may or may not be
on the lathe when the lathe is ready for bar feeder installation. A review with the lathe personal
would prove useful to identify the related covers. If the covers are off the lathe this may become
an issue when the bar feeder is placed too close but ok for reach. When the covers are placed
on the lathe the bar feeder could be in the way. It is suggested to test fit the covers prior to
securring the bar feeder to the floor.
