2 ULTRA PRECISION DIAMETER ADJUSTMENT.00025" PER CLICK The ultra precision diameter adjustment is extremely accurate, as well as, quick and easy to use. The adjustment mechanism is spring loaded to take out back lash. There is also a detent mechanism so the adjusting screw can be turned in precise increments for diameter adjustments in increments of.00025". There is also a spring loaded dovetail way system to keep chips out during adjustment. On top of that, the lock screw is easily accessible and securely locks the adjustment in all directions on a dovetail way. To adjust the diameter: 1 Loosen the lock screw 2 Turn the micrometer diameter adjustment screw with your fingers or by inserting a 1/16" Allen wrench into the cross holes on the head of the screw. To make the part diameter larger, turn clockwise. To make the part diameter smaller, turn counter clockwise. As you turn the adjustment screw you should be able to feel a click. Each click will change the part diameter.00025". 3 Tighten the lock screw Note: Be sure to loosen the lock screw before adjustment and to tighten the lock screw after adjustment. If the lock screw is not loosened before adjustment, you will not get proper adjustment and loosening the lock screw latter will cause the adjustment to jump. If the lock screw is not tightened after adjustment, then the roller will not be secure when it is machining the part, causing inaccuracy. One way to ensure tightening of the lock screw is to leave the wrench in the lock screw until it is retightened.

3 Taper Adjustment Screws ULTRA PRECISION TAPER ADJUSTMENT Ultra precision taper adjustment is quick and easy to use. Furthermore the pivot position is in line with the cutting zone so taper adjustment does not affect side position of the tool. To adjust taper: 1 Loosen one of the taper adjustment screws (two 1/4" hex head set screws) To make the part bigger on the out board end (away from the carrier collet) loosen the taper adjustment screw closest to the roller. To make the part bigger on the in board end (closest to the carrier collet) loosen the taper adjustment screw that is closest to the tool. 2 Tighten the opposite taper adjustment screw.

4 Lock Nut Side Adjustment Screw Side Adjustment Clamp Screw To adjust the head sideways: LATERALLY ADJUSTABLE HEAD 1 loosen the side adjustment lock nut 2 Loosen the side adjustment clamp screw 3 Turn the side adjustment screw To move the head away from the carrier spindle, turn clockwise. To move the head towards the carrier spindle, turn counterclockwise and also slide the head over so that the side adjusting screw contacts the side adjustment bracket. 4 Tighten the lock nut. 5 Tighten the side adjustment clamp screw. Note: Minor adjustments to the side adjustment screw can be made without loosening the lock nut providing the lock nut is not overly tight.

5 QUICK CHANGE PRESETABLE HEADS The quick change shave tool heads are easy to remove from the machine and they are easy to replace with accurate repetition. This allows more convenient off line adjustment and/or presetting for: Diameter Adjustment Taper Adjustment Side Adjustment of Tool Side Adjustment of Roller Independent of Tool Float Adjustment Over Travel Adjustment Spring Tension Adjustment Dovetail Gib Adjustment

6 Down Cut Base Up Cut Base Down Cut Base and Support Up Cut Base and Support Down Cut Base and Support Up Cut Base and Support The base is attached to the slide with 6 hold down screws for maximum rigidity. The support is interchangeable between down cut and up cut and is securely locked to the base with a dovetail by a wedge clamp. The rear adjustment screw allows accurate adjustment for positioning the support. The pivot clamp easily and quickly locks the head for quick change ability.

7 Lock Screw LATERALLY ADJUSTABLE ROLL BLOCK The roll block can be easily adjusted sideways to meet various applications to reduce the need for special rolls on tools. To adjust the roll block position sideways: 1 Loosen the roll block lock screw 2 Slide the roll block sideways to the desired position. 3. Tighten the lock screw OFFSET STRADDLE OFFSET IN BOARD OUT BOARD The roll blocks are available in various styles. The 3 most common are illustrated above. Other roll blocks are available on as need basis.

8 Float Adjustment Screw Lock Screw EASILY ACCESSABLE FLOAT ADJUSTMENT The float adjustment establishes the return position of the head when the roller is not contacting work and also determines how much the head slides from return position to initial cutting position. (.020" is normally adequate for this movement.) To adjust the float: 1 Loosen the float adjustment lock screw (located towards the tool). 2 Turn the float adjustment screw ((located towards the tool). To reduce the amount that the head moves when the roller contacts the work, turn clockwise. 3 Tighten the lock screw Note: Minor adjustments to the float adjustment screw can be made without loosening the lock screw, providing the lock screw is not overly tight.

9 Spring Adjustment Screw ADJUSTABLE FLOAT TENSION The float spring adjustment is located on the end of head towards the tool. This adjustment changes the amount of pressure between the roller and the work piece. To adjust the spring pressure: To increase the spring pressure, turn the spring adjustment screw clockwise. Note: if this adjustment is over tightened, the spring can bottom out and the roller will not be able to lift the head as it contacts the work.

10 Over Travel Adjustment Screw Lock Screw OVER TRAVEL ADJUSTMENT The over travel adjustment is easily accessible on the out board side of the holder. This adjustment limits the amount that the head can slide to prevent the tool from sucking into the work piece, which can happen if the shave tool scrubs excessively on perpendicular cutting faces. Limiting over travel with the over travel adjustment screw is only needed if the shave tool may scrub excessively on cutting faces perpendicular to the axis of the part rotation.) To adjust the over travel: 1 Loosen the over travel adjustment lock screw (located towards the roller). 2 Turn the over travel adjustment screw (located towards the roller). To reduce the amount of allowable over travel, turn clockwise. 3 Tighten the lock screw Note; Minor adjustments to the over travel adjustment screw can be made without loosening the lock screw, providing the lock screw is not overly tight. Note: If the amount of allowable over travel is not enough, then the head will not be able to move adequately and will not allow the roller to move the head as it contacts the work. If the amount of allowable over travel is too much, then the tool could be sucked into the work and cause a smash up if the tool has any perpendicular cutting faces that cause scrubbing pressures sufficient to overcome the spring pressure. In general, it is desirable to not use shave tools to finish perpendicular faces that are of considerable depth. This is due to the fact that perpendicular cutting faces cause a scrubbing pressure. Excessive scrubbing pressure can overcome the spring pressure and cause the tool to suck into the work, which will prevent the roller from contacting the work. Consequently, inconsistent part size will occur if the spring pressure does not overcome the scrubbing pressure and make the roller contact the work before final sizing of the part. Spring pressure should be increased if the shave tool has perpendicular cutting faces.

11 Gib Adjustment Socket Head Cap Screws Gib Adjustment Set Screws ADJUSTABLE DOVETAIL GIB FOR HEAD SLIDE The adjustable dovetail gib for the head slide is easily and precisely adjustable to eliminate play in both axes and eliminate excessive friction. To adjust the gib adjustment: To tighten the gib, turn the socket head cap screw(s) counter clockwise a slight amount and turn the adjacent set screw(s) clockwise an equal amount so that both screws are tight. To loosen the gib, turn the set screw(s) counter clockwise a slight amount and turn the adjacent socket head cap screw(s) clockwise an equal amount so that both screws are tight. 1 Adjust each end of the gib until there is no play or excessive friction. Note: At final adjustment, all four gib adjustment screws should be tight to create an opposing tension to maintain position of the gib. Also the screws can be turned independently without counter-adjusting the opposing screw, providing the adjustment is minimal and providing that all four screws are reasonably tight. This opposing tension system allows a very precise adjustment of the gib.

12 Lock Nut FRICTION ADJUSTMENT Friction Adjustment Screw The friction adjustment is an easy way to increase the friction it takes to slide the head. On jobs where the work piece is unstable additional friction can eliminate or reduce chatter. It is only needed when the work piece is unstable. To adjust the friction adjustment: 1 Loosen the friction adjustment screw lock nut (a hex nut located on the out board side of the slide) with a 7/16" wrench. 2 Turn the friction adjustment screw (a 1/4" set screw) with a 1/8" Allen wrench. To increase the friction, turn the screw clockwise. Note: Check that the friction does not exceed the spring tension by pressing on the head to overcome the spring tension and then releasing pressure and observing if the head returns to its return position. 3 Tighten the lock nut while holding the friction adjustment screw.

13 REMOVABLE GUSSET The removable gusset provides rigidity that vastly exceeds conventional shave tool holders. In house testing results found that the New Market Product s shave tool holder was considerably stiffer and could perform wider cuts without chatter than conventional shave tool holders. It was also through this in house testing that New Market Products developed the gusset for even wider cuts. The gusset is removable for applications where additional clearance is needed.
