Operation
Only use high quality water-soluble cutting
fluid in this system. Never attempt to pump
straight cutting oils or kerosene. If you do, the
higher viscosity of the oil will overload the motor,
causing damage, or flammable liquids may
ignite.
Following the cutting fluid manufacturer’s
guidelines, check and maintain the specific
gravity of the cutting fluid to its required level.
Change the fluid when it becomes overly dirty,
rancid, or contaminated.
To use the cutting fluid system:
1. Make sure the cutting fluid is properly
serviced and the tank is filled.
2. Put on the necessary personal protection
equipment.
3. Position the cutting fluid nozzle for your
operation.
4. Use the control panel coolant switch to turn
the cutting fluid pump ON.
Figure 3. SB1029 control panel.
5. Adjust the flow of cutting fluid for the type of
flooding required.
Note: Promptly clean any splashed cutting fluid
from the floor to avoid a slipping hazard.
