i second huflungdungs statment. It has worked every time for me.


To keep it from happening again the manual says to use some sort of thin film lubricant on the tool holders. The techs say Never use grease (the manual probably says so to) That being said I use a fairly thin lithium grease as it dosnt wash off with coolant.

The reason the tech said I shouldn't use grease is the accumulation of crap in the spindle. Well I got news for the tech guys and the manual,you cant stop the dirt from getting everywhere and I have been using grease for about 7 years now and havn't had any problems and the tools stick in to holder about 1/10th as much as they used to. I also have my guys clean the tool taper 1 or 2 times a day with a clean lint free rag.

hope this helps.
