Press black folder and find thumb drive, folder and file. Then find file in drop down list | === Machine Tool:=== | ||
* Air compressor on | |||
Hook in dust hose | * Air valve (red) on | ||
Check everything! | * Controller on. - black box silver button | ||
Turn on dust collection, gate open for your hose | * Home? Clear the edges! Ok | ||
* Jog with Xbox controller | |||
Play button becomes the pause button. Hover your finger a while to be ready for any weirdness. | * Green=slow, red= medium Yellow= fast. | ||
Issue with job: screen pause | * Ok to shut ball valve while fixturing | ||
Issue with machine: stop on back of controller | * Carpet tape! Weight down workpiece | ||
See “remaining” indicator for job time. Progress bar is by line# | * Warm up procedure: | ||
Scroll display to x,y,x readout. | * Air back on | ||
Hearing protection | * Power for 220 VFD: behind crates | ||
* Radiator: beige box on floor, top right rocker. | |||
At job end, use dust collector to clean area, then turn off. | * Spindle will ramp up to 24k. Load & run Warmup.ngc on screen scroll list | ||
If you take out your tool, leave a tool in the spindle to keep it clean and spring catch engaged | * Clear the spindle, then hit play. Caution: it’s quiet! 8 minutes, then it stops | ||
Home the tool to back left to leave table open | * *** check on Henry’s touch screen | ||
Power off the air ball valve, then the air compressor | * Check motor housing for shake, heat. Should be cool to touch, else the bearings are first suspect | ||
Turn off the radiator | * Wiggle check workpiece. | ||
Turn off the 220 Volt VFD | * Remove dust shoe to layout workpiece zero | ||
Turn off controller | * X0 Y0 | ||
* Set the tool in collet | |||
* Hold tool, press pedal until completely out, release pedal | |||
* Leave pedal tough to accidentally hit | |||
* Hold tool collet just under, press pedal tough air clean a few seconds, push tool up and release pedal to catch spindle. Test spin with fingers and pull by hand to ensure seating. | |||
* X zero: Machine is actually in metric mode for input values, but displays “inches”. Or “in”. It wakes up in metric mode. So input a 1/4” as 6.35. | |||
* | |||
* Replace dust shoe- magnet catch. Adjust dust feet with wing nuts for brush to contact work surface. | |||
* | |||
* Load your guide by inserting thumb drive in back of controller | |||
