Swivelling the milling head
ATTENTION!
If the milling head is slewn too far oil might escape from the gear. Therefore, we recom-
mend to slew the milling head only as far as no oil escapes while the vertical spindle is
running.
INFORMATION
The gear of the milling machine is located in open reservoirs which have to be con-
nected with the ambient air.
The milling head can be swivelled to the right and to the left.
Loosen the nuts for clamping the rotary disc maximum of one turn. A complete removal or
loosening of the nuts can lead to jamming of the rotary disc.
Rotate the square head in order to set the milling head to max. 45 °. Use the scale on the
rotary disc to set the angle.
Clamp the nuts again after adjusting the required angle.
4.12.1 Setting the milling head to zero position
Loosen the nuts to clamp the rotary disc.
Turn the square head until the milling head is in the zero position.
Retighten the nuts.
INFORMATION
The milling head should be aligned after resetting to the initial position with a dial indicator so
that holes can be produced with the spindle sleeve at a right angle.
4.13
Turning the spindle head carrier
It is possible to rotate the spindle head carrier by ± 180°.
The spindle head carrier must be turned by 180 ° for horizontal milling to be able to mount the
thrust bearing.
Proceed as follows:
Loosen the clamping screws.
Crank the spindle head carrier forwards as far as possible in order to pass the operating
panel during the turning process. For technical reasons, the control panel has an intended
short arm.
Position the spindle head carrier to the desired position by turning it by hand.
Fasten the clamping screws.
4.14
Conversion to horizontal milling
Mount the side milling cutters to the desired position of the milling spindle.
Determine the position of the thrust bearing.
Turn the spindle head carrier 180°. The vertical milling head must be located behind.
Fix the milling spindle by means of the draw bar.
