machine body and the supplying pump is filled with coolant and there are no air
bubbles.
If there are air bubbles, loosen the screw of the supplying pump , and hold up
the hose to fill it up with coolant at the supplying pump side. Then, start up the
supplying pump .
After confirming that the air comes out of the area where the screw is loosened,
put down the hose and tighten the screw .
If the supplying pump starts up when air bubbles are inside the hose, the unit will
continue dry running and will cause a malfunction of the pump (the pump is not a
self-suction pump).
▪ When supplying coolant to the coolant tank of the machine body, fill it to the upper
limit. If the coolant is supplied over the upper limit, it may cause tank overflow.
▪ Do not position the hose above the connecting port of the coolant tank of the
machine body because air bubbles will be generated.
▪ For details on handling the high pressure coolant pump , the supplying pump
and the relief valve , refer to the operation manual of each device and follow the
instructions.
▪ If pressure cannot be adjusted by the relief valve (rise or fall in pressure), fine
cutting chips may have accumulated in the relief valve .
If this occurs, follow the instructions of the operation manual of the relief valve to
clean it.
If the pressure cannot be adjusted even after cleaning, contact STAR MICRONICS
immediately.

 Maintenance of the filter
 Cleaning and replacement of the filter
▪ Check the pressure gauge to check the clogging condition of the filter .
The pressure will change in accordance with clogging of the filter . Therefore,
check the pressure periodically.
Check the pressure while the supplying pump is in operation. The pressure
gauge works by the occurrence of differential pressure, therefore the pointer
reads 0MPa unless the supplying pump is operating.
When the pressure gauge reads 0.2MPa or more, it shows clogging of the filter
in which case, clean the element or replace it with a new one immediately.
▪ The element is made of non-woven fabric, so it is hard to maintain its original
condition even by cleaning.
Cleaning it roughly will make it become easily clogged. When this occurs, replace it
with a new one.
▪ When cleaning the element, drain the oil adequately and place it in the sun to dry
completely. Then carefully remove the cutting chips which have stuck to the element
with a soft brush etc.
▪ Cutting chips are invisibly fine. They stick to the inner side of the large element, and
to the outer side of the small element.
▪ To avoid stopping operation of the machine to clean the element (while it is drying),
prepare a spare element beforehand.

◼ About the flow setting
Detection point setting : Setting of step (22)

⚫ : Switch point
As the range of valid flow of the initial setting is only from LED 7 to LED 9, setting of the
switch point is difficult therefore switch point setting is carried out to widen the adjustment
range.
Using the switch point setting, widen the adjustment range by changing the minimum flow
setting to LED 6 of the initial value. This makes the switch point setting easier.
To make this setting more sensitive, use the detection point setting to make the minimum
flow setting a value bigger than LED 6.
Conversely, to make this setting less sensitive, use the detection point setting to make the
minimum flow setting a value smaller than LED 6.
◼ Alarm
When the coolant flow becomes lower than the preset value, alarm No. 1017 will be displayed.
◼ Initialization of the flow sensor

Follow the procedure below to carry out initialization of the sensor .
(1) Press and hold the button of the flow sensor for approximately 15 seconds.
LED 9 will light up, and then flash after 5 seconds.
(2) In 15 seconds, when LEDs 0~9 flash orange, release the button.
