-16-4.3 Tool changeDangerPull the power plug during allservice work.Wear protective gloves during atool change. The insertion tool canget very hot during longer operationand/or the insertion tool’s cuttingedges are sharp.The spindle 1 (Fig. 1) of the milling and grindingmotor is equipped with a precision collet 2 (Fig. 1) tohold the tools. Tightening and releasing the unit nut 3(Fig. 1) is made easy with a spindle lock 4.Proceed as follows for the tool change: Lock the spindle 1 (Fig. 1) to unclamp the toolby pressing the locking button 4 (Fig. 1). Detach union nut 3 with an open-ended spannerAF 17. Pull off the tool to the front. Push the new tool into the tool holding fixture upto the limit stop. Check the tool’s seat. Spindle 1 is locked when the tool is clamped. Tighten union nut 3 with the open-endedspanner5 Operation5.1 Initial operationPersonnel entrusted to work with the machine mustbe made aware of the operating instructions, callingparticular attention to the chapter "Safetyinstructions".This operating manual only deals with the millingmotor and not with the installation situation. Pleasetake note of any other operating manuals.5.2 Switching on and off Switching on: Push the switch 5 (Fig. 1)forward until it engages. Switching off: Push onto the rear end of theswitch. The switch jumps into off position.The built-in electronic system provides for jerk-freeacceleration when the machine is switched on andunder load readjusts the speed to the fixed setting.In addition, this electronic system reduces the motoroutput in case of an overload, i.e. the spindle stops.Switch the machine off then. Then switch themachine on again and continue working at a reducedfeed speed.With the setting wheel X (Fig. 2) you can adjust thespeed continuously. Appropriate speed values at thedifferent levels can be referenced in the table on page3.5.3 ColletsDangerTo protect the thread, only screwthe union nut 3 lightly onto thespindle 1, but do not tighten whenno tool is inserted. Collet 2 couldget pressed together too much andbe damaged in the process. Unscrew the union nut 3 with the collet 2 (Fig.1). Tilt out the collet 2 to the side.6 Service and maintenanceDangerPull the power plug during allservice work.MAFELL machines are designed to be low inmaintenance.Replace the carbon brushes at the latest after 125 -150 operating hours. The spare parts can bereferenced in chapter 9.The ball bearings used are greased for life. When themachine has been in operation for a longer period oftime, we recommend to hand the machine in at anauthorised MAFELL customer service shop forinspection.6.1 StorageIf the machine is not used for a longer period of time,it has to be carefully cleaned. Spray bright metal partswith a rust inhibitor.
