Setup and operation
To set up the VM7000, pick the proper
adapter ring and put it in the valve's
counterbore. The upper surface of the
ring will be slightly above the surface of
the valve face.
Next, choose the proper mounting
fixture and put it on the valve. The
adapter ring will automatically center the
mounting fixture. Rotate the mounting
fixture to fit the slots to the valve studs.
Once the mounting fixture is set up, the
power head with attached tool head
goes into the mounting fixture bore and
is bolted in place. With the proper head
and tool bit in place, you can do facing,
boring and turning operations. Vertical
feed is controlled manually. The vertical
adjustment dial is calibrated in 0.001
inch increments.
To start a cut, turn the vertical feed
crank clockwise until the tool just begins
to cut and the vertical adjusting dial is
zeroed. Then cut to the valve
manufacturer's specified depth. A tool
set fixture is provided with the machine
to give a reference point for determining
the cut diameter.
Optional tool gage set
To ensure a perfect tool setup, Climax
offers gage block sets that allow exact
tool positioning every time. The gage
blocks are precision machined to match
the valve nozzle manufacturer's original
specifications.
