4.8 Setting Axial Track Synchronization Switches
Caution setting of the synchronization switches is extremely
Important to reduce a possible crash between lathe and bar feeder.
Caution Place bar feeder and lathe into emergency stop when setting switch
positions
The first step in proper switch positioning is placing the synch rod block in the correct position.
See section for setting of the synch block.
Setting of the axial synchronization emergency stop switches is critical during the installation.
The switch locations are preinstalled and do not require adjusting. The adjustment will come
from the trimming of the synch switch plate as required.
The switches must be set so if the headstock was moved no over collapse or over extension of
the telescoping nose would occur.
