5. MAINTENANCE
5.01 BEFORE USING THE EQUIPMENT FOR THE FIRST TIME
1. Clean all components.
2. Coat the components with a light film of oil. Use a clean, non-detergent oil,
such as SAE 10 (90 SSU) or lighter.
5.02 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
BEFORE AND AFTER YOU USE THE EQUIPMENT:
• Wipe the equipment.
• If the weather is humid, spray the equipment with rust preventative.
• Visually inspect the equipment for loose or missing parts and for damage.
AFTER EVERY 20 HOURS OF OPERATION:
• Lubricate the Male and Female Tool Block Slides and Feed Screw(s).
AFTER EVERY 40 HOURS OF OPERATION:
• Clean and lubricate the Main Gear, Drive Gear, Male and Female Tool Slides
and the Tripper Block Assembly.
AS NEEDED:
• If the Tool Blocks collects debris, clean the Tool Blocks and Feed Screws after
operation.
• If there are feed problems, clean and check the Tool Blocks.
• If Headstock becomes loose on the Clamshell, readjust the 90° Vee Bearings,
see the Clamshell Manual for the procedure.
5.03 STORAGE
When you store the Clamshell or take it out of service for 30 days or more, clean
it, lubricate it, and spray it with a rust preventative before you store it.
5.04 TOOL HOLDER MAINTENANCE
1. Dissassemble the Tool Holder.
2. Clean the slide rails, the Tool Holder and the feed components.
3. Inspect the parts for damage and replace as needed.
4. Lubricate the parts.
5. Re-assemble the Tool Holder.

Holder. The pressure ensures that the oil becomes a thin film on the surfaces
of the slide rails.
