To change coolant:
1. Position coolant nozzle over back of back
splash so that it is pointing behind lathe.
2. Place 2-gallon bucket behind lathe and under
coolant nozzle. Have another person hold
bucket up to nozzle to prevent coolant from
splashing out.
3. Turn coolant pump ON and pump old fluid
out of reservoir. Turn pump OFF immediately
after fluid stops flowing.
Adding Coolant
4. DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!
5. Remove access cover from side of right
stand, then slide tank out.
Note: The fluid hose, pump cord, and ground
wire (see Figure 129) were purposely left
long, so the tank can be removed and dumped
out without disconnecting them from the tank.
However, the drain tube (see Figure 128 on
Page 71) may come out of the tank when you
empty it.
6. Pour remaining coolant into 2-gallon bucket
and close lid.
7. Clean all sludge from bottom of tank and
then flush it clean. Use second bucket to hold
waste and make sure to seal lid closed when
done.
Dispose of old coolant and swarf according
to federal, state, and fluid manufacturer's
requirements.
Running coolant pump longer than nec-
essary for this procedure without adequate
fluid in tank may permanently damage it,
which will not be covered under warranty.
3. Pour coolant into tank until it is approximately
1" from top.
4. Slide tank back into cabinet and replace
access cover.
Changing Coolant
When you replace the old coolant, take the time
to thoroughly clean out the chip drawer and fluid
tank. The entire job only takes about a
1
⁄2 hour
when you are prepared with the proper materi-
als and tools. Make sure to dispose of old fluid
according to federal, state, and fluid manufac-
turer's requirements.
