3. Verify that the ATC is all the way forward (toward the
spindle), and then slowly move the Z-axis down (-Z) to
examine the clearance of the carousel door opening.
4. Verify that the carousel door opening is approximately
equal to the front back and left of the spindle mounting

6. Adjust the carousel door opening as required:
l
If the Carousel Door Opening is Contacting the
Front Pivot the ATC around the locating pin on the
bottom of the mounting bracket toward the front of
the machine (closer to you).
l
If the Carousel Door Opening is Contacting the

bottom of the mounting bracket toward the back of
the machine (closer to the machine column).
l
