SPADE DRILL HOLDER MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
- Always add a small amount of anti- seize to the threads of
the Torx screws. This prevents the screw from seizing in the holder and will eliminate
striping the torx socket in the screw.
- Long run jobs require that the Torx screws be removed and
anti- seize be reapplied every time the bit is replaced or every 24-48 hours of
use.
- High pressure coolant is recommended for deep holes if aggressive
feeds are used.
- Always make sure the pipe plug is tight in the hole you are
not using for coolant.
- When tools are not in use make sure that the holders' shanks
are protected from damage.
- When selecting the spade drill holder, remember that the range
on some holders overlap. Always use the largest size holder which fits the spade
drill tip. This will reduce drill breakage due to excessive holder clearance.
- Watch the load meter on your CNC, as the spade tip wears,
the load on the meter will increase. By keeping track of how much load is on the
meter when the tip is ready to be changed , you can reduce tool breakage and the
tip will be able to be reground.
- No need to align the Survivor, you can use the default setting
on your turret position.
- Tool change times are reduced by changing the Spade drill
tip.
