Setting the supplied thread-tapping oil quantity
When cleaning, servicing, inspecting or repairing the machine, it is essential to
switch it off and pull out the mains plug (de-energised operation)!
Ensure that the oil tank is filled with oil up to the level
of the sieve mesh.
If the amount of thread-tapping oil running via the
thread-tapping head does not meet the
requirements, the supplied amount must be
adjusted with the aid of the oil adjustment screw.
Undo the locking nut of the oil adjustment screw.
Turning the oil adjustment screw clockwise
increases the amount of oil delivered and turning it
anti-clockwise reduces the amount.
Tighten the locking nut firmly after making the
adjustment.

Draining off the oil
It is essential to also observe the
safety and disposal regulations in
Chapter 7!

Operation of the thread-tapping machine
5.1
Clamping the workpieces
The tool carriage can make contact with the frame before the tapping process has
ended and the clamping chuck and the machine can be damaged as a result!
A clearance of at least 70 mm must therefore be maintained between the thread
cut on the workpiece and the clamping chuck!
Move the pipe cutter and the thread-tapping head up so that they are not in the way and
position the internal deburrer on the rear side.
Insert the workpiece from the centring chuck side (fig. 1) and tighten the centring chuck
(fig. 2).
Hold the workpiece on the clamping chuck side securely with your right hand and gradually
tighten it with the clamping chuck (fig. 3).
