Installing The Surface Levelling Tool - Roland MDX-40A Step-By-Step Manual

Installing the surface levelling tool

1
Install the collet and tool appropriate for cutting.
This tutorial requires the 6mm collet and 6mm straight end mill.
2
Insert the tool from below. The tool extension
length needs to exceed the cutting depth of
the workpiece. In this tutorial, the cutting
depth of the model is 28mm, so set the tool
extension from the collet to roughly 35mm
(±5mm).
P;fter surface-levelling the base, continue
on to surface-levelling the model workpiece
and making the model.
3
Tighten the tool using the two spanners (large and
small) included in the accessory box.
Ensure the tool is held securely, but do not over-
tighten. Excessive force may damage the collet or
the spindle base.
Tool extension length
This is the length from the base of the collet to the tool tip.
The extension length should be enough to ensure the tool can cut the entire depth without the collet or
spindle body making contact with the workpiece.
