Note: Improper filtration may result in interrupted flow of lubricating oil. This creates a sticky surface on the bearing pads and leads to premature wear of thetool and overloading the coolant pump and spindle seals • Temperature of the coolant should be between 20 and 22º C Note: Above 50º C the viscosity of the coolant is reduced by 50% and becomes ineffective. 666 ISCAR
