    Air on fadal

    My Fadal got a air/oil spindel. And every time that i run spindel it blow air on the back on the machine (near the chiller cabinet) thru vent.
    Does the air blow all the time, or only to remove water?

    The air/oil system turns on intermitedly (SP) when the spindle is off and will will turn on when the spindle turns on and then turn off a few minutes after the spindle turns off. The air/oil system vents to the atmosphere near the back of the machine. It sounds as though your machine is running fine.

    Thanks for reply.
    I put a tube on valve (improvised silencer), because it can get noisy, specialy when i need to listen a tool.
