Tool holders and pull studs must be in good condition and tightened together with wrenches or they may stick
in the spindle taper. Clean the tool tapers with a lightly-oiled rag to leave a film to prevent rusting. Tools that
make a loud bang when being released indicate a problem and should be checked before serious damage to
the shuttle occurs. When the TOOL RELEASE button is pressed, the tool should be pushed out of the spindle
by a small amount (approximately .07"). This is an indication that the pull stud is correctly touching the release
mechanism.
TOOL C HANGER L UBRICATION
Place lubricating grease on the outside edge of the guide rails of the tool changer and run through all tools.
