4. SETTING UP THE MACHINE
The table and saddle are firmly clamped for the protection of the machine during
transportation. The clamping should be released for setting it up.
Anti-rust oil must be removed and new oil applied. Table way protection bakelite
bars must be replaced with the ball bearing retainers in the table-sliding ways.
RELEASING THE CLAMPS
1. Loose the bolts and detach the saddle stoppers brackets from both sides of the
machine. Saddle is free now.
2. Loose and detach the table fixing bolts from the bottom of both ends of
the table.
With Model MSG-250M/250MHi, loose the bolts and detach the table stopper
brackets clamping the table and saddle, from back left hand of the table.
Loose the screw of the table stoppers and slide them away from the
table stopper bar. (Refer Fig.4 and 5)
Tab le is free but must not be moved until the neoprene protection bars in the
table slideways are replaced by the ball bearing retainers.
REMOVAL OF ANTI-RUST OIL AND WASHING
For the protection of machine from rust during transportation,
important parts are coated with anti-rust agent. They have to be wiped and
washed off completely with solvent like a kerosene in the following order.
1. Slideways of the Saddle and Base
When the machine is delivered to the customer, the saddle is being clamped at a
position nearest the column. Wipe off Anti-rust grease Heavy coated to the bottom
V-ways of the saddle extending out of the base, wash the V-ways with solvent and
apply MOBIL Vactra No.2 (Heavy Medium) or equivalent to the
V-way surfaces.
Then pull the saddle toward the operator by turning the handwheel for
table traverse. Counter-clockwise until the saddle is no further pulled.
