Single-edge back-boring tools

When back boring, diameter range will be changed. Take care that the protrusion length of the assembly will not cause any collision.

Always use a torque wrench, and apply recommended torque on screws for insert and tool assembly torque.

Replace worn or exhausted screws, washers, and cup springs. It is recommended to replace the cup springs used when clamping the slides every 5th use to keep the pre-clamping functionality in place, while setting the diameter in the pre-setter.

Lubricate all assembly items with oil at least once a year.

Make sure the boring tool will go through the hole with the shoulder and that the front of the boring tool will not collide with the component. When back boring, the boring tool is configured to go through a hole with minimum diameter of DC/2 + BD1/2.

Remove the grub screw from the top cutting fluid outlet, and attach it into the lower cutting
fluid outlet in order to get the correct coolant position
Rotate cartridge 180°
Use the slide extension, if needed
Reverse rotation direction

When roughing, make sure the machine has the required power and torque needed for the specific boring application. Feed, number of inserts, hole diameter, and depth of cut are the main affecting parameters.
