Installing Tooling; Removing Tooling - Grizzly G0823 Owner's Manual

Installing Tooling

This machine features a spindle that accepts R-8
collets and arbors. It can also use MT#3 or MT#2
tooling with the included adapter sleeves.
To install tooling:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Open belt cover.
3.
Make sure tapered mating surfaces of tooling
and spindle are clean and free of grease or
other contaminants.
4. Align tooling alignment slot (see Figure 21)
with pin inside spindle, then insert tooling into
spindle until it contacts drawbar.
Note: Drawbar height inside spindle can be
changed by rotating the drawbar lock nut (see
Figure 21).
5.
Working from the top, hand-thread drawbar
into tooling until finger-tight, then use a lug
wrench to snug it.
Note: DO NOT
Overtightening makes tooling removal dif-
ficult and could damage arbor and drawbar
threads.

6.
Continue to tighten drawbar until collet and
cutter (or arbor) are snugged firmly in place.
Do not over-tighten drawbar, and never use
power tools to tighten it.
—If drawbar bottoms out in tooling and will
not tighten further before tooling is tight
in spindle, tighten drawbar lock nut (see
Figure 21) to secure tooling in spindle.

Removing Tooling

1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Loosen, but do not remove, drawbar.
Tip: If necessary, insert included drill chuck
key into chuck to hold chuck in place when
tightening drawbar.
3.
Hold tooling to prevent it from dropping com-
pletely out of machine. Tap on top of drawbar
with a brass hammer to loosen collet/arbor
from spindle, as shown in Figure 22.
