NOTE:
INSTALLATION
Make surethat the Model 572AC is disconnected from its power source before
installing a tool bit.
Install a Collet into the Model 572AC.
Insert a tube into the Collet and bring it flush to the front of the Collet and clamp the tube
in place.
Rotate the cam feed knob counter-clockwise with a 3/8” wrench, so that the scribe mark
points to the bottom (this will place the tool holder to the end of the feed).
The cam can only rotate in the direction noted on the knob with an arrow.
Slide a tool bit into the tool slot until the end of the cutting edge of the tool bit passes the
ID of the tube by approximately .020” (.51 mm)
DO NOT install the tool bit backwards; it will not cut and may destroy the tool bit.
Secure the tool bit in place by tightening the four (4) set screws in the tool holder.
Rotate the cam feed knob until the tool holder returns to top of its travel.
Screw in the feed limit adjustment screw until the end of the cutting edge of the tool bit
just clears the OD of the tube.
Rotate the cam feed knob counter-clockwise to pick up the feed slack.
Loosen the Collet and re-position the tube to sever.
To adjust the feed rate, loosen feed lock screw, rotate the feed adjustment screw and
read the feed rate graduations to find the desired feed rate.
Some experimentation should be made to maximize the efficiency and tool bit
life.
A feed rate of .002” (.05 mm) to .003” (.08 mm) will accommodate most tube
materials.
When the desired feed rate is set, tighten the feed lock screw. (Don’t over tighten.)
