LUBRIFICATION / LUBRIFICATION Huile / Oil : SAE 30-50 Après 20 jours d’utilisation / After 20 days of using. Ajout d’huile tous les six mois ( après nettoyage ) / Re-adding every 6 months ( must be cleaned first ) L’adjonction d’huile ne doit pas dépasser les 2/3 de la jauge / The oil adding level souldn’t be higher than 2/3 of the oil gauge.
Page 3: Preparing The Installation Location
PREPARING THE INSTALLATION LOCATION The bench where the unit is to be installed must measure at least: L 1000 mm, W 600 mm, H 550 mm and must be able to bear 150 Kg. For safety reasons, the bench must be placed against a wall while still leaving access to the rear of the machine.

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS - Milling: Max. machining diameter: 400 mm Distance between tips: 400 mm Max. longitudinal apron travel: 410 mm Max. transverse carriage travel: 80 mm Tool turret of size 20 x 20 max. No. 3 jaw taper tailstock Seven rotation speeds from 160 to 1360 rpm Metric thread leadscrew (19 metric increments from 0.2 to 3 mm ) - Drilling/milling: Max.
Page 9: Transmission System
TRANSMISSION SYSTEM Spindle speed settings: (in rpm) The spindle speed is set to match the diameter of the part and the material to be ma- chined, The setting is made after calculating the number of rpm and after determining the position of the belts on the pulleys, referring back to the chart provided on the machine.

Page 15: Sharpening Tools
SHARPENING TOOLS Note: The grinding head is the ideal tool for this operation. The grinding head may be fitted with a green grinder (green silicon carbide) specially designed to sharpen carbide tools Metal carbides (Cobalt, tungsten, titanium, boron combinations) These carbides that are obtained with a special heat treatment called sintering, are used in the form of disks or “inserts”.
Page 16: Straight Turning
VARIOUS GRINDING/MILLING OPERATIONS FACING a/ Comprises removing metal from the part surface, b/ Clamp the part into the chuck, always use the same jaw tightening square. Never let the part protrude by more than twice its diameter (spinning in the air), c/ Position the tool tip so that it is perfectly aligned with the part axis (to do this, use steel shims that are placed under the tool body) 1000 x V...
Page 17 Example: To advance by 0.2 mm per revolution: Gear A=24, B=120, D=60, lever No. 3 on position II, d/ Set the tool at a tangent to the part diameter. Reverse the tool to the right to escape from the part. Set a penetration depth of 0.5 mm. 10 divisions on the Vernier callipers = 1 mm in diameter.

Page 19 CUTTING a/ Comprises cutting a part that has already been drilled and bored to obtain a spacer or washer, b/ Use a cutting tool. Bring the tool tip to the same height as the axis (again using shims) or a little below the part centre, c/ Start the machine after first setting the rpm, 1000 x V π...
Page 20 The tool is aligned with the part using a centre gage. This centre gage is useful when checking tool sharpening. 1/ Once the tool is correctly sharpened and aligned, set the rpm, a setting that will be far slower than the theoretical rpm rate, (approx. 50% less). Example: For an M 20 x 2.5, semi-hard steel=30 1000 x 30 = 477 tr/ min π...
Page 21 External thread on the right Inner thread: - When cutting an inner thread, the speed remains the same for an equivalent diameter, - The gear settings are the same. Nevertheless, you need to calculate the bore diameter and penetration depth. To do this, use the following formulas: BORE DIAMETER FOR A THREAD OF M 20 X 2,5 = D - ( 1,08 x P ) =...
Page 22 WARNING: Never release lever 2 until the thread cutting is finished To reset the tool in the start position, reverse the chuck direction and repeat a number of 0.25 mm passes to achieve the final 1.3925 mm dimension, Try the M 20 x 2.5 bolt before disengaging the centre gage lever 2 Metric threading...
Page 23 fitting between tailstocks FITTING WITH A STEADY (OPTION 114300) A steady is used when machining very long axes and when the tailstock centre can be used. The steady is mounted on the longitudinal carriage and the brass pads or ball bearings are positioned on the opposite side to the tool.
