INSTALLING A COLLET IN THE MODEL 301QL

Insert the Collet into the tapered Collet Clamping Model 301QL.
Swing the Collet Clamping Assy down into position.
Insert the Ball Lock Pin completely into the hole provided for it in the Collet clamping
Assy.
Be sure that the Toggle Clamp Lever is in the up position in order to permit
the pin to be pushed into the Collet Clamping Assy.
Insert the pipe or tube to be machined into the Collet.
Verify a clearance of 1/16” (1.6 mm) between the Tool Bits(s) and the pipe or tube
face as held by the Collet.
As the Collet closes, the tube is drawn toward the Tool bit.
