The accuracy of .00008" (2m) guaranteed for the settings of the work-table permits to satisfy all requirements met with in that field. The three tools mostly used, viz. the boring spindle, the spotting tool and the loca~ ting microscope can be set successively on the same point of the workpiece by simply operating a handwheel. This permits to spot a point, to check its posi- tion and to drill the hole without any loss of time. Furthermore, readings, made on screens instead of eyepieces, are highly accurate and so easy that the fati- gue of the operator's eye is considerably lessened. The operator is normally seated. The most sensitive feed of the quill permits to drill holes from about .01" (0,2 mm) in diameter up to 1/2" (12 mm) in steel. The tool holders permit holes from .02" (0,4 mm) up to 1" (25 mm) in diameter to be bored. The spindle being very rigid, it is possible to mill without fear of wear of the traversing screws which serve exclusively for displacing the table and not for performing measure- ments. The optical device is of such accuracy that the machine constitutes a high precision measuring machine.MAIN CHARACTERISTICS English Metric units units inch mn Measuring range Table nominal longitudinal travel 8 200 Table nominal transverse travel 8 200 Guaranteed accuracy for table settings -00008 0.002 Work table Length 16 400 Width 10 250 Width of T-slots 3/8 10 Number of slots 5 5 Distance between axes of clamping slots 21/16 53 10-47 40,5 ae Boring spindle Internal Morse taper Nol External taper SIP special Nominal quill travel 21/8 55 Distance from table top to boring head: maximum 16 1/4 413 minimum 6 150 Spindle speeds (7) from 360 to 3000 rpm.

INSTALLATION Opening of packing case Remove first the roof of the case, and then the walls specified "open here". ‘The case contains the counterweight for the vertical slide, the case or the ca~ ses containing the accessories as well as a parcel containing a hand pump and some screws intended for closing the holes uncovered by dismantling the locking parts during the transportation.The machine is anchored to the bottom of the ca~ se by means of stays the removing of which presents no difficulties. For lifting up the machine, pass a rope through the three lifting buckles keeping both rope ends straddled by a wooden beam for preventing the levers of the slide from being damaged (see photo No 6172). Putting down the machine To obtain full benefit of the high inherent accuracy of the No 1H, it must be installed in a room fulfilling the following conditions: a) Temperature controlled to 68° F (20° ¢) b) Free from vibration ¢) No dust d) Suitable illumination This room can be located at any floor level provided it is protected against vibration; however, ground floor is always preferable. The windows must be of the double-panel type and provided with curtains or blinds for protecting the machine as well as the workpiece to be machined from receiving direct sunlight. In fact, any local heating causes unequal expansion which renders the accuracy of the ma- chine quite illusory. For the same reason the room radiators mist be provided with protecting screens preventing direct radiations. A concrete foundation block must be provided when the machine is installed at the ground floor (drawing 514115). The bed must rest on three points constituted by steel plates of about 4x4 in. and 3/8 in. thick (10x10x1 cm). On each of them a steel cylinder of 3/8" dia. and 2 5/16" in length (10 mm dia. and 60 mm in length) is placed and located on the V-grooves 11 foreseen at the lower part of the bed.6172BS mind 264 min. 4" 10"1/2 100 1000 40" 800 gen 100, E. 1:10-1:1 Seale: 1/10-Full siz - 5 Sos19% Although it is not necessary absolutely to have the work table set perfectly level, it is however advisable to correctly level the machine. By doing so, round workpieces will not toll and fall down on the floor. To this aim, introduce sheet steel pieces of convenient thickness between the plates and the cylinders. After having gauged them, complete levelling by grinding or milling a flat of the re- quired dimension under the two opposite cylinders. It is unadvisable and even dangerous to run cement underneath the bed, as it may subjected to deformations when drying and thus subject the machine to detrimental strains. Cleansing Remove completely thg anti-rust grease coating all non-painted surfaces. For doing/this, use.a white rag soaked with paraffine and squeezed nearly dry. Where the anti-rust grease sticks more tenaciously, insist on rubbing it away as, in spite of its denomination, this so-called grease has no lubricating pro- perty. Avoid the use of alcohol, petrol or of proprietory mixtures, which may con- tain solvents prejudiciable to the paint-work. After this cleansing, coat the non=painted surfaces with a light film of lubricating oil. Note: Should the machine have exceptionally been left in its packing case for over three months, it is then necessary to remove all oil from the ways and from the roller races. For doing this, lift the work-table and then the slide, remove the rol- lers and their respective cages and clean the surfaces with paraffine. Remove every trace of dried oil or grease and repolish carefully any sur- faces showing a slight oxydation. Using a clean oily rag. For lifting the work-table, untighten firstly the screws 351 and let the bar lean on the slide. The rear bar 36 can be removed without any difficulty. Displace the work-table to its right-hand end position. Untighten slightly the screw 341 and completely the screw 34. This permits to push the table approxi- mately 1 9/16" (4 cm) more to its right. In this position the work-table is released from its locking device and can be lifted. For lifting the slide, dis- mantle the strip 14 by unscrewing at the front side the screws 141 and the plug of the Vee 1411, and then the Screws 143 at the rear, which fasten the cover 142. Having removed this cover, the fixation 144 can be dismantled and the strip is thus releaséd. Place the slide at the utmost end of its front travel. Remove the three screws and the two dowels fixing the tube 22 of the traverse nut to the column (drawing 508383). Pull the slide approximately 1 9/16" (4 cm) forward to release it from its locking device. It can now be lifted. ‘The reassembling is performed in the reverse sequence.3 vis M6 508383E17322s Unlocking of the work-table and of the slide When working, the front way 311 of the work-table and the left-hand way of the slide 211 roll on rollers. During transportation these rollers have been relieved. This is done by introducing steel setting pieces which lift the ta~ ble from .005" up to .01" (0,1 up to 0,2 mm). Moreover, various clamps painted in red immobilize these components with respect to each other on the bed (pho- to No 6173). Dismantle the clamps A and B fixing the slide 2 and remove the bolt C. Af» ter this, remove both setting pieces D, lowering gently and taking care not to let the slide drop on its roller, because even a dropping of .005" up to .01" (0,1 up to 0,2 mm) may damage the roller ways. Proceed afterwards with the sa- me precautions for removing the clamps E and the setting pieces F of the table- work 3. When the clamps E and the setting pieces F are removed from the table, the latter can be moved on its guideways. One notices that the handwheel 24 has a large backlash. This is done on purpose for transportation. In order to reduce this backlash, proceed as follows: Nove the table 1 to 1 1/2 in. (2 to 3 cm) from its centre position to the left. Unscrew slightly the small screw 341. Screw without locking the screw 34. Lock it by means of the small screw 341. The holes left as a result of the dismantling of the lifting buckles and the locking clamps can be closed by means of screws supplied for this purpose. Putting the counterweight in place First remove the cover 41 of the column and the bracket 422 of the chain pulleys: remove also both small covers 44 protecting the holes located about in the middle of the column. The counterweight 42 which weighs 133 1bs (60 kg) must be lowered inside the column by means of a small rope until its hole is located opposite to both holes of the column. Pass through these three holes aniron bar of about 3/4" (20 mm) dia. and let the counterweight rest on it without drawing away the small rope. Put in place the pulley bracket, pass the chain 421 according to sketch 300655 and fasten its end by means of the removable connecting link 4211. Let now the counterweight go down up to the chain extremity by sustaining it by means of the small rope and by remo- ving the iron bar. Take the small rope away and put again the cover 41 on the column. The vertical slide 5 an now work and the setting picce G which supported it during the transportation can be removed. Close the holes of the setting piece by means of the headless screws supplied to this purpose.4 42" 300655cand ee 2. LUBRICATION 1. Oil and grease to be used 1.1.

Housing of the vertical leadscrew, fine settings, locking devices Grease : Marfak O of Caltex Oil 1.3. Ball bearings of the motors and of the gear-box, ball and roller bearings of the spindle, optical micrometers Grease : Premium 2 of Caltex Oil 2. Use and frequency TONNA_27 2.1. Once a month give one pump shot in each nipple. 2.2. To lubricate the mechanism of the transversal displace- ment of the boring head put it in the boring position against the right hand abutment. Lubricate this nipple once a week with one pump shot. 2.3. The lubrication of the spotting tool sleeves must be made once a week by spreading a very thin film of oil, with a clean rag, on the part of the spotting tool which projects out of the head at the top and at the bottom. 2.4. The V-way 21 of the transversal slide must be lubricated once every six months (photo No 6176). To do this, push the slide fully to the rear, unscrew 141 which fasten the strip 14 to the V. Pour about 2 cu.in (30 cm3) in the Vee. This oil will flow in the front lubricating cup. Replace the strip 14 in position and displace the slide fully forward. Dismantle the cover 142 of the strip by unscrew- ing the screws 143. The fixation 144 is the accessible; dismantle it and lift the strip. Pour also 2 cu.in. (30 cm3) oil in this portion of the Veez it will run in the rear lubricating cup. Replace the strip in position and displace the slide once at least over its whole travel.= 36 = MARFAK O 2.5. The lubrication of the housing of the vertical leadscrew, fine settings, locking device should be done every three years. PREMIUM 2 2.6. The lubrication of the ball bearings of the spindle and ventilator's motors should be done every three years. The spindle motor must be greased by one of our service- men. 2.7. The lubrication of the optical micrometers and bearings of the spindle must be made by one of our servicemen every three years. 3. NOTE To ensure a good lubrication of the ways of the table and transversal slide, one must displace them to and fro over their whole travel once a day. UPKEEP In addition to periodical lubrication as per instructions con- tained in preceding chapter, the machine will require the following care in order to be kept in good condition. External surface of the machine Remove once a week the chips and the dirt by means of a brush or a rag. Do not use air pressure: (see remark in page 35). After com- pletion of cleansing, slightly grease the non-painted surfaces with an oily rag. Internal mechanisms These do not require particular upkeep, except the lubrication already specified. Optical elements All the optical devices are fully enclosed so that the only periodical cleaning to be done comprise the following parts: a) The glass windows on the viewing screens, using a dry rag. b) The eyepiece of the spindle head microscope and the pro- tecting glass under the spindle head, through which the light rays pass when the spotting tool is retracted.These last two surfaces are to be cleaned by rubbing them gently with a clean rag or some cotton-wool on which a few drops of rectified paraffine oil have been poured. Never use deer skin which carries dust and abrasive particles which will scratch the glass. Filter of the electro-ventilator The inlet pipe of the ventilator 15 (page 31) is provided with a filter 151 made of oiled paper. A decrease of the air supply, which can be detected by placing the hand before the outlet openings of the spindle motor, reveals that the filter is stuffed and must be changed. This is made by opening the cover 12 and removing the eight screws 1511. Remove the lattice cover and the filter 151.seats Part I DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINEasec MACHINE ELEMENTS Bed The bed is of completely closed design, strongly ribbed and very rigid. An aluminium cover 12 which projects at the rear side contains the electrical equip- ment as well as the two-step fan device. Slide and work-table The slide moves along the bed, being guided by a V-shaped way at the right- hand and by a flat way at its left-hand side. In the V-way plain surfaces are in contact, whereas on the flat way rolls a roller. The V-way guarantees the maximum straightness of the movement; however, as the friction attains a rather high va~ lue, it is relieved of a part of its weight by means of a sprung roller, the pres- sure of which is adjusted at its optimum value. The work-table moves along the slide, guided by a plain V-way at the rear, and by a roller guide-way at the front. Its relatively light weight makes a re— lieving roller unnecessary. The transversal traversing screw is controlled by handwheel; at the right it is fixed to the slide, whereas its nut ie fastened to the column at the end of the tube 22. The longitudinal screw is controlled by the handwheel at the left; it is also fastened to the slide and its nut travels along with the work-table. The controlling handwheels are provided with slow motion knobs for fine set~ tings which facilitate the accurate positioning of the table. The locking of the slide on the bed and of the work-table on the slide is obtained by means of an eccentric acting on fixed jaws clamping a sheet-steel plate affixed to the movable element. The right-hand lever (13) locks the car= riage slide whereas the left-hand lever (25) locks the work-table. After each setting in co-ordinates, lock first the slide, and then the work-table. Column and vertical slide The column 4, rigidly assembled to the bed, is provided with guiding ways on which the vertical slide 5 moves. The latter is suspended on the chain 421 Provided with the counterweight 42 which weighs only half the weight to be ba- janced. The chain is attached on two oblique connecting rods 423 in such a way that the reversing torque, which tends to upset the overhanging slide, is transformed into an equally distributed pressure along the ways.aD The vertical displacement is controlled by the handwheel 131 located below on the left; it is determined by means of the auxiliary scale 52. This figure is useful to determine the position of the vertical slide in order to locate the focussing position of the microscope for the workpiece being machined. The clam- ping action is obtained by:means of the jaw 511 with grip on the column, it is controlled by the lever 51. Boring head The boring head contains three tools, viz. the boring spindle 617, the spot- ting tool 65 and the locating microscope 66 which may all three be brought exac- tly on the same point of the workpiece. The axis of the three tools are parallel to each other and situated within the same vertical plane. The boring head can be traversed transversally and can occupy two positions: in the first, the spin- dle is in working position, in the second the spotting tool and the locating mi- croscope are both ready for use. For this purpose, the microscope is provided with a tiltable portion which is withdrawn inside when the spotting tool is lowered and which regains its working position as soon as the spotting tool is raised. The boring head travel is limited by the abutments 531, the value of which is precisely equal to the distance between the axes of the boring spindle and the ‘spotting tool. The pressure against the abutments is maintained constant by means of a spring loaded by the controlling handwheel 53. The accurate repetition of both positions is thus guaranteed. A clamping device acting on a sheet iron plate and controlled by the handle 64 locks the boring head in either position. Spotting tool The up- and downward movement of the spotting tool is controlled by the le- ver 651. The spotting tool being set in place, a blow is imparted by a weight (652), the falling height of which is indicated by a graduated scale, thus permitting to vary the diameter of the impression. When the wear of tool point occurs, it is necessary to re-grind it. The point is a taper the included angle of which is 90°. For dismantling it, unscrew the point by means of a fork spanner 3/8" (10 mm). It is then possible to remove it from below. The grinding operation must be performed by supporting the cylindri- cal portion of 3/16" (6 mm) dia. adjacent to the conical portion, into a fixed steady. For re-assembling the spotting tool, screw it thoroughly into its re~ cess, however without forcing it too much. Height of the spott: tool When the locating microscope is focused on the top surface of a workpiece, the tip of the spotting tool have to be at .008" to .02" (0,2 to 0,5 mm) from this surface. After some re-grindings of the tip this distance will be too great. To correct this distance, proceed as follows:ease 1) Traverse the head in the position giving in the microscope an absolute sharp image of the top surface of a workpiece. 2) Lower the spotting tool and measure the distance between the top surface of the workpiece and the tip, raise the spotting tool. 3) Loose the screw placed in-the front of the control lever of the spotting tool (651) on photograph 10512. 4) Go beyond the maximum travel and notice the position of the control lever in the moment where the rack is disengaged. 5) Remove the splitted'steel ring acting as lowest travel abutment. Reduce its thickness to obtain the normal distance, as specified here over. 6) Re-assemble the sleeve of the spotting tool on the head, place the control lever in the position noted under 4, lower the spotting tool, tighten the screw in front of the boss of the control lever. In no case the setting of the locating microscope must be modified because it will produce a charge in the magnification and, consequently, the distances measured by means of the graduation of the reticule will no more be correct. Boring spindle The boring spindle runs in special ball and roller bearings of high accura~ cy. It is bored No 1 Morse taper and provided with a special external taper to accomodate some of the tool holders, etc. (sketch 520150). The boring spindle is adjusted in a carefully balanced quill, controlled by the lever 62 the motion of which is slightly reduced by appropriate gearing in order to insure the necessary sensitivity for the drilling of small holes. The small handwheel 621 for fine feed is provided with a friction clutch engaged by means of the knob 622. The lever 161 permits to lock the quill during milling operations, whereas the lever 615 permits of locking the spindle when clamping or releasing the tools by means of knob 613 which operates only when the quill is fully raised. Avoid clamping the draw-in bar very strongly, as the Norse taper tightens itself when the tool is subjected to a sufficient load. Depth measuring device This device permits to limit the depth of the holes bored to an exact value determined by a gauge block the height of which is equal to the depth of the hole to be machined. The device comprises a dial indicator 63 fixed to the quill and a flat sup- port 631 adjustable vertically for accommodating the gauge blocks.=eB55 =< For drilling a hole of a given depth 1, bring the tip of the tool into con- tact with the workpiece to be machined. Lower the support 631 so as to permit the required gauge block to be placed , lift the support until the feeler of the dial indicator contacts the gauge block and its hand indicates 0. Then, clamp the knob 632. Remove the gauge block and drill or bore the hole until the feeler contacts the support 631 and the hand on the dial indicates 0. The hole is then exactly drilled or bored to the required depth 1. Speed gear box The speed gear box 61 is located between the motor 611 and the boring head 6. It is driven by a two-speed three-phase motor. The set of gears gives 4 com binations, so that the available spindle speeds are the following: motor speed 1500 rsp.m. spindle speeds 360 - 535 - 1070 ~ 1600 motor speed 3000 r.p.m. spindle speeds 720 - 1070 - 2140 - 3000 viz. 7 different spindle speeds. The shifting gear of the gear box is controlled by the lever 612. Optical equipment The standard scales built into the table are made of glass, the thermal ex- pansion coefficient of which is very close to that of steel. The transverse scale is fixed to the bed, parallel to the V-way. It is sighted by an objective fixed to the slide which throws the image of the graduation lines of the scale onto the right-hand projection screen, visible behind the window 271. The longitudinal scale is located underneath the work-table and being soli- dly attached, moves with it. The objective which sights it, is mounted on the slide and throws the image of the graduation lines of the scale onto the left~ hand projection screen, visible behind the window 272. All the optical components are mounted in dust and shock+proof housings. Nevertheless, the machine must not be cleansed by means of compressed air, lest the pressure might cause fine dust particles to enter the housings. The necessary light for the projection is supplied by 6 V. - 1,45 A., 6052M Philips lamps. The lamp of the transversal optical system is located within the housing 28, on the right, at the rear of the slide, sketch 520147, whereas the lamp of the longitudinal system is located within the optical housing 27 in front of the slide (sketch 520146). The centering of the filament of the bulbs in the axis of the optical system is of prime importance (see following chapter, rechan- ging the bulb).292 28 520147293 520146508367= ie The projection screens carry six double lines represented 1/20 of an inch di- vided into 5 parts (viz. 1 mm divided into ten parts). The graduated lines of the standard scales are projected on the screens at such a magnification that when the double line 0 of the screen is centered on the image of a scale line, the image of the next line is centered in the double line 10 of the screen. When traversing the slide or the table, the image of the line of the corresponding standard scale mo- ves on the screen. When it has travelled from one to the next double line of the screen, the displacement effected is equal to 0.01 inch or 0,1 mm. By keeping the screen steady, it is only possible to displace the table or the slide by incre~ ments of .01 inch or 0,1 mm. This is the reason why the screens are adjustable and controlled by a micrometer screw the drum 273 or 274 of which is divided into 100 parts. One turn of the micrometer drum corresponds to a screen displacement equal to the distance between two consecutive double lines. Thus the .0l inch (or 0,1 mm) length is divided into 100 parts. Consequently, one graduation of the micrometer drum represents .0001 inch or 0,001 mm. Outside auxiliary scales graduated into .05 in. (or 1 mm) are used in con- junction with adjustable index marks for approximate settings. Changing the bulbs The projection bulb for longitudinal readings can be removed ty slightly un- tightening the screw 277. It then falls by its own weight in one's hand placed un- der the housing 27. It is now only necessary to disconnect the pin-plug 295. The bulb for transverse readings is accessible by removing the housing 28 held by four screws. Disconnect the pin-plugs 293, unscrew the screw 262 and push then the upwards from below. The lamp comes out and can be grasped with the other hand. The bulbs have threaded socket. In order to avoid short-circuits, the bulbs tust only be removed after having cut off the current by operating the switch 1212 of the illuminating devices. For putting a new bulb in place, proceed as follows (sketch 508387): 1. Serew the bulb into the socket 291. 2, Introduce the socket into the centering templet 7. 3. Maintain it by tightening the screw 71 which must enter the slot. 4. Untighten slightly the nut 292 so as to be able to place the filaments as shown by sketch 508387 and push the bulb by operating the screws 72 until the filament is located at the intersection of the axis defined by the slots 73. 5. Tighten nut 292. 6. Remove the socket from the templet and place it again in the machine by con- necting the pin-plug. 7. Light the lamps.8. Determine the height giving a good illumination of the screens by letting the lamp-holder socket slide vertically in its recess. This position being found, tighten the screws 277 or 282. REMARK : The duration of life of the bulbs is a function in which the ratio nominal tension ‘actual tension itervenes at the 14th power. The life of a over-run lamp is considerably shortened. For this reason, the main switch board of the electrical equipment is provided with adjustable resistors which permit to maintain the tension of 6 V. constant in spite of a possible variation of + 15 % of the net tension. The normal duration of use of the No 6052M Philips bulb is about 2'000 hours. Zero setting With a view to make readings easier, it is advantageous to choose a full num- ber of in. (or centimetres) as starting point and to set the table and the slide to zero. The setting to zero can be performed after the boring spindle has been centered on the origin of the coordinates and when the drums of the micrometers read 0, the image of a line of the standard scales is centered within the double line 0 on the screen, the index marks of the auxiliary scales are set to a full number of inches or mm at choice. In order to obtain this result, the standard scales can be displaced by means of the knurled knobs 132 and 32. The index marks on the auxiliary scales can be displaced by means of the knurled Imobs 261 and 276. Coordinate setting ‘The machine being set to zero, the setting of the prescribed coordinate va- lve is performed as follows: - Set the micrometer drum of the screen to the prescribed figure. - Displace the table or the slide, using the auxiliary scale, until the required number coincides with the index. Complete the setting by using the slow motion knob and looking at the projection screen to centre the image of the scale li- ne in the double line of the screen according to the figure prescribed. Set- ting to be obtained: 6.8279 in. (173,429 mm).= §ise Example: Set the drum on 79 (on 29). Move the table until the index of the auxiliary scale is on 6.8 (on 173). Complete the movement by letting the image of the line coincides with the double stroke 2 (4). Viewing microscope The viewing or locating microscope built into the boring head is illumina— ted by a 6 V. - 0,5 A. lamp accessible from the rear of the protecting cover 661. The centering of the filament of this bulb within the optical axis of the micros- cope is not very important and any 6 V. - 0,5 A. bulb screwed onto its socket is generally sufficiently well centered. The microscope is provided with a double cross-line reticle and with con- centric circles graduated in thousandth of inches or 0,1 mn. Lighting of the viewing microscope The illumination built into the boring head is suitable for the observation of perfectly polished pieces, such as the optical centering plug of the dividing table, reference square, etc. For workpieces with non-polished surfaces, but on the contrary diffusing sur- faces, the external illumination must be used. It consists of a fluorescent ring-shaped tube mounted on a polished reflec- tor. It is fixed under the boring head in a taped hole foreseen for this purpose. This Dlumination is fed by plugging in the wire into the upper outlet socket. The cooling is made by plugging in the plastic tube into the snap cover fitting 663 which is on the left hand side of the boring head. Use The central switch 1212 of the electrical switch-board presents three posi- tions of work. In the zero position, nothing is switched on. In the first position, it lights up the built-in illumination allowing the observation of polished workpieces, op- tical centering plug of the dividing table, reference square. In the second posi- tion, it lights up the fluorescent tube which enables the observation of other parts.as Precision Although of low power, the fluorescent tube releases a certain quantity of heat. If one wants to work with the maximum precision by avoiding any expansion of the boring head, it is advisable to light up the tube only during the time ne- cessary for observation. Replacement of tube This tube has a very long life and its replacement is very rare. To replace a worn out tube, first remove the accessory from the machine. Then remove the sheet metal cover fixed by three chamfer-head screws. The electrical connections are then visible, dismantle the connection between the tube and the binding screw. Remove the large screw which fixes the reflector to the body of the ac~ cessory. Take out the reflector, remove the tube and replace it by the new one. Reassemble the accessory carrying out the above operations in reverse order. Electrical equipment ‘The machine is supplied with complete electric equipment ready to be con- nected to the supply net. As it is neither provided with safety fuses nor with section switch, it is important to provide fuses or an accross the line switch. This for safety's sake and to prevent any possible accident which may occur to the electrician who might have to handle any part of the electrical equipment of the machine.

The machine is connected to the net by the terminals 81. Higher on the left, there are twelve fuses. Above the fuses are mounted the adjustable resistors for the illumination intensity. At the upper part, in the middle, there is a contac- tor 83 for the spindle head motor and on the right the contactor 84 for the fan motor. On the right the transformer 85 feeds the coils of the contactors and of the illumination devices. Fuses Following fuses are to be used: Spindle head motor, 3 fuses « + 24 DIL type Ventilator motor, 3 fuses « + 2k DIT type Transformer, 2 fuses ... 2k DIT type Contactor, 1 fuse’. + 1A DI type Lighting, 1 fuse ..... + 64 DI type Working lamp, signal lamp, 1 fuse + 1A DI type Lighting spotting tool, 1 fuse . + 1A DI type Contactors The tension of the machine being always 380 V., the contactors are adjusted on: spindle head motor 0,57 A., fan-motor 0,42 A. Outlet socket There are three outlet sockets on the left hand side of the column: the high one serves to feed the fluorescent tube and corresponds to the fuse 1A marked "lighting spotting tool". The middle one feeds the working lamp and corresponds to the fuse marked "signal". The low one feeds the dividing table and corresponds to the fuse 6A marked "lighting". Connecting autotransformer The machine connected to a mains of different tension than 380 V., possesses an autotransformer 86 connected in such a way that the tension of the machine al- ways is 380 V.SAT Connecting to the mains The terminal 81 enables the connection to the three-phase supply mains. The small terminal which is next to it allows the possibility of connecting the fluo- rescent tube to a single phase supply mains of 110 or 220 V. without using the transformer 85. The change of connection from one to the other is obtained by mo- ving a connecting strip on the terminal plate situated behind the fuses (see diagram 890026) . The special transformer of the fluorescent tube possesses a primary winding with two entries 110 or 220 V. If the parted supply is chosen, the tension of the mains must evidently correspond to one or the other of these primary tensions and the connections made accordingly. Controlling switch board The inclined desk-shaped panel at the front of the bed bears the controlling switch board 121 fitted with: the main cut-off switch 1211 the cut-off switch 1212 for the illuminating devices the switch 1213 for the spindle head motor two signal lamps constituted by EM 769/6 bulbs. The right-hand one (1214) lights up when the main switch is closed. The left- hand one (1215) lights up with the illumination devices.eS Pre rr THE ACCESSORIES=i50= ACCESSORIES Regular equipment (Generally supplied with the machine) 1 illumination attachment with fluorescent tube for observing non-polished work-pieces, 1 clamping socket for holding spring collets, 7 spring collets 3/64" - 1/16" - 5/64" - 3/32" - 1/8" - 9/64" - 5/32" - (1 - 1,5 - 2 - 2,5 - 3 - 3,5 - 4 am dia.) 1 drill chuck, capacity 5/16" (8 mn), 1 adjustable boring tool holder L0e-1/64" to 9/16" (0,4 - 15 mm) with 9 cutters.
