6.2.3 Central lubrication system
The automatic machine lubrication system lubricates the slide ways, support and ball screws the amount of oil
that is ejected at every lubrication point is defined by the opening diameter of the tube. In the software the number
of minutes and the time interval of the lubrication system can be adjusted.
Options → Defaults → Lubrication
After selecting this option the dialog box 'lubrication settings' emerges on the display where settings can be
changed.
On: number of seconds the pump actually pumps
Off: number of seconds the pumps does not work
The 'Input Valid' is the time in which the pump can build up oil pressure. When no pressure is present, an error
message will appear on the display. This setting may never be greater that the 'On' setting.
Keep in mind that wrong values can inflict extra wear on the slide ways and bearings of the machine.
As an indication for the correct settings: there should be a slight layer of oil be present on the slide ways and
cross slide. When in doubt, always contact your dealer.
6.2.4 Refill central lubrication pump
Open the sheetmetal cover, this is located on the left bottom of the machine frame
Open the filler cap and fill the reservoir to the maximum indicated level.
Caution: A strainer is placed inside the filling tube. Do not remove this strainer to avoid
internal contamination.
Make sure the oil level is between the HIGH and LOW marks on the oil reservoir
6.2.5 Tailstock
The spindle and quill of the tailstock are lubricated by two grease nipples which are located on top of the tailstock.
The slide ways on which the tail stock slides should be cleaned regularly and re-lubricated.
6.3 General cleaning of the machine
The machine needs to be cleaned daily. Metal chips need to be removed from the bed and the chip container
needs to be emptied. The guides and support need to be cleaned using some cloth to remove coolant stains.
Never use dissolving cleaners like gasoline. This to prevent paint-damage of the
machine.
The slide ways of the tailstock needs to be cleaned and lubricated regularly.
Always clean refill points and nipples with a clean dry towel, to prevent dirt and dust entering
the lubrication system
