PROBLEM:

THE CLUTCH SLIPS AND THE TAP CANNOT BE TURNED:

Probable reasons  

Solution 

1.- Clutch slackness 

=  Clutch adjustment (page 11) 

2.- No tool lubrication 

=  Use cutting oil 

3.- inappropriate tap for the material 

=  Use the correct tap according to material and 

manufacturer’s advice  

4.- Tap spoiled, “worn” 

5.- Misaligned hole 

6.- Drilled hole diameter too small 

PROBLEM: THE LUBRICATION SYSTEM FAILS TO OPERATE 

Probable reasons  

Solution 

1.- The oil reservoir is empty 

=  Fill the reservoir (see page 6) 

2.- The oil-hole is clogged 

=  Unscrew the end of the lubrication nipple and clean 

it.  (ATTENTION: Do not mislay the spring and the 

ball located inside) 

IMPORTANT: 

If the oil reservoir has been fully emptied the circuit will have possibly been filled with air, so that 

after having filled the reservoir it is necessary to start the motor several times in succession in a 

state of the highest setting position of the lubrication regulating control.   

Main features of the cutting oil type to be used:  
 
Use pure cutting oil without additives. 

- Viscosity: 20-40 cSt. 
- Additives E.P. –extreme pressure- (Sulphur, Phosphorous and Chlorine inactives) 
- It does not contain solvents
