Setting should be done in tool setter
1. | Mount insert. |
2. | Set tool setter to required diameter. |
3. | Place tool in tool setter. |
4. | Rotate tool to obtain largest diameter on display. |
5. | Perform rough setting by moving extension slide. |
6. | Tighten extension slide screws. |
7. | Unlock locking screw on fine boring head. |
8. | Retract cartridge by turning dial counterclockwise to facilitate setting from smaller to larger diameter. |
9. | Set diameter by turning dial clockwise. |
10. | Tighten locking screw to specified torque. |
11. | Set counter weight to same scale value as extension slide. |
12. | Tighten counter weight screws to specified torque. |
 | Set counter weight to same scale value as extension slide. |
|
WARNING |
Setting the fine boring unit diameter without first unlocking the locking screw will result in damage to the tool. The same thing will happen if the setting limits are exceeded.
It is vital that the flat of the ball – not the sphere – is directed towards the cross-slide. Otherwise the cross-slide will be damaged. |

Lubrication
Lubricating should be done at regular intervals. It is done by depressing the spring-loaded ball and adding a few drops of light oil. |
Recommended light oil:
E.g.
Mobil Vactra oil No. 2
BP Olex HLP-D
Kluber Isoflex PDP 94 |  |

The geometries above are suitable for finish boring and will perform excellently with the recommended cutting data. Unfavorable conditions e.g. thin work pieces, bad fixturing, worn spindle bearings and long overhangs, can cause vibrations with unacceptable surface finish as results.
In order to avoid such conditions.
- Use the largest basic holder possible with reductions.
- Use insert with sharp cutting edge.
- Use as small nose radius as possible.
- Reduce cutting speed.
Note! Do not combine maximum recommended depth of cut with maximum recommended feed. |

Setting scale for CoroBore 825
One full turn of the scale will move the insert 0.25 mm radially. Subsequently the diameter change will be 0.5 mm.
The dial has 50 divisions. Each division represents 0.5/50 = 0.010 mm/diameter.
The vernier has 5 divisions. Each scale division can be divided into 5 parts 0.010/5 = 0.002 mm, making it possible to adjust the diameter by 0.002 mm.
Example of setting
In this example the blue line on scale disc is reference since it is aligned to a line on the vernier in the start position. | |
| Start position | Adjusted position |  |

|  | Scale disc turned clockwise until line of scale (red) lines up with second line (green) of vernier.
Diameter increased by 0.002 mm. |

|  | Scale disc turned clockwise until line of scale (red) lines up with third line (green) of vernier.
Diameter increased by 0.004 mm. |

|  | Scale disc turned clockwise until line of scale (red) lines up with fourth line (green) of vernier.
Diameter increased by 0.006 mm. |

|  | Scale disc turned clockwise until line of scale (red) lines up with fifth line (green) of vernier.
Diameter increased by 0.008 mm. |

|  | Scale disc turned clockwise until line of scale (red) lines up with sixth line (green) of vernier.
Diameter increased by 0.010 mm = 1 division of scale. |
