Tool assembly and maintenance

When using dampened tools in assemblies, care should be taken
to hold the tool bodies correctly to make sure that the adaptors
are not damaged. These are easily deformed due to the thin wall
thickness.

• Use assembly mounting fixture
• Check that all units are assembled correctly, with the correct

torque

• Check machine spindle, run-out, wear and clamping force
• Always use a torque wrench and apply recommended torque on

screws for insert and tool assembly

• Check inserts and insert seats regularly
• Replace worn or exhausted screws and washers
• Clean all assembly items before assembly
• Lubricate all assembly items with oil at least once a year
• Lubricate the fine adjustment mechanism for fine boring regularly
