Maintenance
Lubrication
Greasing areas
To maintain the safe function and high quality of the lathe chuck, it
has to be regularly lubricated at the lubrication nipples in the
chuck body.
The chuck must be lubricated in the open position.
Select the position with the chuck set up horizontally when
lubricating so that the lubricating nipple and the ventilation hole
are at 60° to the horizontal.
When lubricating a vertical or hanging chuck, the upper ventilation
hole must be opened.
When lubricating, press the grease gun until grease is pushed out
on the 120° offset upper ventilation hole.
For optimum grease distribution, the chuck piston must travel the
entire clamping stroke several times after lubrication.
CAUTION
Allergic reactions due to grease in contact with skin!
Wear gloves.
Operating conditions
Depending on the operating conditions, the function and clamping
force must be checked after a specific period of operation (see
"Maintenance intervals"
). Only use a calibrated
clamping force tester for measuring in the clamping force test
(SCHUNK GFT-X).
