For Machines Mfg. Since 3/11

EVS Toolroom Lathe w/DRO

In addition to the reservoirs, we also recommend 
that you lubricate all other points on the 
machine at this time. This can be accomplished 
by following the maintenance schedule on 
Page 66.

 If this lathe was shipped with oil in the 

reservoirs, do not change that oil until after the 
test run and spindle break-in procedures.

Add the coolant of your choice now. For detailed 
instructions on where the coolant tank is located 
and how to add fluid, refer to Coolant System 
Service on Page 75.

After you have completed all previous setup 
instructions and circuit requirements, the 
machine is ready to be connected to the power 
supply.

Due to the complexity required for planning, 
bending, and installing the conduit necessary for 
a code-compliant hardwire setup, an electrician 
or other qualified person MUST perform this 
type of installation.

Hardwire setups typically require power supply 
wires to be enclosed inside of a solid or flexible 
conduit, which is securely mounted at both ends 
with the appropriate conduit fittings. All work 
must adhere to the required electrical codes.

The hardwire setup must include a locking 
disconnect switch (see Figure 20) between the 
power source and the machine. This switch 
serves as the means to completely disconnect 
the machine from power to prevent electrocution 
from accidental startup during adjustments, 
maintenance, or service to the machine.
