Maintenance
Lubricating the Linear Rails
The linear rails are self-lubricating. If, after initial installation, you hear chatter from the linear rails, apply a thin
layer of way oil to the linear rails.
Replacing the Plastic Screws on a Fork
The plastic screws that hold the fork to the tool
tray are designed to fail under greater-than-normal
loads: when a tool crashes, the plastic screws snap to
prevent damage to the ATC.
If the plastic screws that hold the fork to the tool tray
break, do the following:
1.
From the fork, remove the broken screws.
2.
Use two included Plastic Screws to secure the
fork to the tool tray.
Make sure the groove on the fork faces the
machine table (see
Figure 38
).
IMPORTANT!
Do not use metal screws to
replace broken screws on an ATC’s fork. Failure
to do so could cause machine damage.
3. Repeat the
Adjusting the Tool Tray Rotation
section.
