DT-1 - Spindle - Tool Clamp System - Push-Out Adjustment - Manual
Tools Required
Also required: magnetic base, feeler gauges
1. Place the split tool in the spindle.
2. Indicate the ground surface of the split tool and zero the indicator.
3. Push up on the split tool to keep it from dropping and press Tool Release. The drawbar will push the
split tool out of the spindle.
4. Check the indicator. The tool should be pushed out 0.030". If the pushout varies from this value, adjust
the air cylinder clevis position in or out until the correct pushout is achieved.
NOTE: Each 180° rotation of the clevis adjusts pushout by approximately 0.010". If
an exact pushout of 0.030" cannot be achieved, adjust pushout to the closest
possible value over 0.030". For example, if pushout can only be adjusted to
0.025" or 0.035", adjust it to 0.035"
