key and the holder slides into the spindle.
Use a wrench to tighten the drawbar (see 26)
until the tool is secure in the spindle.
Do not overtighten the drawbar.
Overtightening makes collet removal difficult and
causes unnecessary wear to the draw bar threads,
collet, and the spindle taper.
Close the pulley cover and clear all items away from
the cutting tool before turning the mill ON.
Make sure the spindle is turned OFF and the quill is
at the upmost position.
Use a brush to remove any debris or chips from the
tool and the tool holder/arbor.
Use a wrench to loosen the drawbar from the tool.
Once the tool is loosened, support the cutter with
a gloved hand, and strike the drawbar with a dead
blow hammer or rubber mallet to release the tool
holder from the spindle.
DO NOT strike the drawbar if it is completely
unscrewed from the tool. This can damage the
threads on the drawbar and the tool.
Finish unscrewing the drawbar by hand.
