Leveling Procedure For VB or MC Machines 

When leveling a machine with more than 6 leveling pads, care must be taken to not twist the base 

of the machine. This procedure will review the proper steps to level successfully. 

Tools required – 12” .0005 per foot level, & 32 mm (1.25) wrench 

Estimated time – VB 1 to 2 hrs, MC 2 to 3 hrs 

Step 1 

With the table centered, level the machine’s four outside pads. Be sure that the center pads are 

not touching, and all four outside pads have load. Also check to make sure that the machine’s casting is 

not touching the floor. 

Place level in 

center of 

table 

Adjust four pads 

Step 2 

Bring four inside pads down till they are just touching. 


Step 3 

Move table to the front of the travel, and level the four front pads. The majority of adjustment 

should be on the two middle pads. Once level is achieved, verify all four pads have load. 

Two center pads 

Step 4 

Now move the table to the rear and adjust the final two leveling pads. Once level is achieved, 

verify all eight pads have load 

Final pads 


Step 5 

Now that the machine should be level, jog the Y-axis back and forth to verify that level is 

consistent. If it is still out, slowly adjust pads to achieve level thru the travel of the machine. 

Jog machine 

Step 6 

The final check to be performed is traming of the head. Over a 12” diameter circle you must be 

within .0005 total indicator reading.

High Pressure Coolant System 

Component description and service procedures 

Low pressure tank - this component 

holds the coolant filter and supplies 

the hi pressure pump. 

Input feed from the coolant tank. 

Transfer pump – supplies coolant to 

the low pressure tank, as well as the 

standard flood coolant system. 

This pump is not self-priming. Only 

prime if coolant tank is full 

High pressure pump – supplies 

the high pressure thru spindle 

coolant only when turned on 

separate from flood coolant. 

MC max pressure 1000psi 

VB max pressure 300psi 


High pressure pump adjuster – 

this is preset from the factory, 

and do not recommend changing 

High pressure gauge – will only 

display reading if there is 

sufficient backpressure. 

Tank pressure gauge – will 

display 30 to 35psi with a new 

filter installed. You must 

replace the filter if pressure 

exceeds 50psi. 

Tank pressure relief valve – use 

to bleed excess air out of the 

tank after replacing the coolant 

filter. 


Do not open if drivers 

are powered on. 

Machine must be in 

E-stop. 

Filter replacement should be performed if the tank pressure gauge exceeds 50psi. You may also 

experience a high-pressure coolant fault on the cnc control. If this fault occurs check the pressure first. 

Filter replacement procedure 

1. Place machine in e-stop 

2. Open ball valve to insure the tank has no pressure. 

3. Open top lid of the tank and remove the filter. 

4. Discard filter (filter is not reusable) 

5. Insert new filter and use installation tool to push the filter down until you feel it snap into place. 

6. Close the tank lid and ball valve 

7. Now turn on the drives and coolant option 

8. You will need to bleed the tank with the ball valve while the high pressure thru spindle coolant is 

running 

9. Now you should be able to continue machine operation. 


Fill point for pump oil - 

Replace hydraulic oil 

once a year. 

If you are using the 

machine more than a 

typical 40 hr work 

week, change oil more 

frequently.

Unpack Machine: 

1. Remove plastic wrap. Carefully inspect for any damage. 

2. Install leveling pads and level machine. (This is usually the responsibility of the rigger or 

customer) 

Assistance will be necessary to perform the following steps: 

3. Using a socket or suitable wrench (Pliers are not recommended) turn the Z ballscrew 

clockwise from the top of the screw enough to remove wooden shipping block on table. Be 

careful not to let the ratchet/wrench slip backwards. 

4. Turn the ratchet/wrench counter clockwise until counterweight chains are taut, and 

counterweight bar is free 

5. Remove counterweight bar. At this time you must remove the ratchet/wrench otherwise 

serious damage could occur. 

6. Install the Z-Axis motor and drive belt, and any other items that may have been removed for 

shipping purposes. Make sure to align marks on direct drive coupling if equipped. Do not 

tighten motor locking bolts until motor is floated into center. 

7. Check that front panel with swivel arm is clear of Z-Axis head motion. (If equipped) 

8. Optional ATC: Remove the carousel support bolted to the table. Remove the locking orange 

bracket to prevent the carousel to slide back and fourth(mounted on rear of atc next to large 

air cylinder). 

Line voltage check: 

1. Verify 230/460 vac. (+/- 10%) is wired to the main disconnect correctly. (460vac. Optional). 

The factory configuration is stamped on the serial number plack. The transformer equipped 

with all 6000i controls has multiple taps, that should be configured for 400VAC at the control 

amplifier input. See documentation included with this manual. 

2. Check all wire connections, relays, contacts, and plugs to be sure nothing has come loose. If 

so, reseat or tighten before turning on main power. 

All voltage checks should be recorded on the STARTUP REPORT form.

PANEL LAYOUT 


Fryer Mill with Anilam 6000 and 20KVA Transformer 

Setup 

The Anilam 6000 control requires special secondary voltage of 400 vac. This requires a 

special transformer to be installed on all mills equipped with this control. The 20KVA 

transformer is used on all mills except ones with the 30 Horsepower spindle option. The 

transformer is pre-wired at the factory for the primary voltage specified at time of order 

and the machine serial number tag. 

Main input power must ONLY be connected to the line side (TOP) of the disconnect 

switch located inside the electrical cabinet. NEVER connect main power directly to the 

Transformer. Following is an explanation of how to configure the transformer (all wiring 

changes are done inside the transformer) for the two most common incoming primary 

voltage ranges. Refer to the specifications on the front cover of the transformer for other 

possible inputs (210 – 483 V). 

For 208-250 VAC input (Voltage must be within this range or warranty will be void.), 

connect the internal tap wires from H1-H2-H3 to each corresponding tap (4=250, 5=230, 

6=210) respectively (one wire per phase). The 3- 12 AWG black wires labeled as 13-14- 

15 should be connected to H1, H2, H3 respectively alongside with the input AC wires 

ONLY when 208 – 250 volt primary is used. 

For 420-495 VAC input (Voltage must be within this range or warranty will be void), 

connect the internal tap wires from H1-H2-H3 to each corresponding tap (1=483, 2=460, 

3=437) respectively (one wire per phase). The 3- 12 AWG black wires labeled as 13-14- 

15 should be connected to X1-13, X2-14, X3-15 


Fryer Mill with Anilam 6000i Controls and 25KVA 

Transformer Setup 

The Anilam 6000 control requires special voltage of 400 volts AC. This requires a special 

transformer to be installed on all mills equipped with this control. The 25 KVA 

transformer is only used on mills equipped with the 30 HP spindle motor. The transformer 

is pre-wired at the factory for the primary voltage specified on the order and the machine 

serial number tag. 

Main input power is ALWAYS connected to the line side of the disconnect switch 

located inside the electrical cabinet. NEVER connect main power directly to Transformer 

wires. 

Following is an explanation of how to configure the transformer ( all wiring changes are 

done inside the transformer) for the two possible incoming voltage ranges. 

For 208-250 VAC input (Voltage must be within this range or warranty will be void.), 

connect the wires with white insulation from H1-H2-H3 to corresponding taps #2 on the 

transformer phase columns. The 12 AWG black wires labeled as 13-14-15 should be 

connected to H1, H2, H3 respectively along with the input AC wires. 

For 420-495 VAC input (Voltage must be within this range or warranty will be void), 

connect the wires with white insulation from H1-H2-H3 to corresponding taps #1 on the 

transformer phase columns. The 12 AWG black wires labeled as 13-14-15 should be 

connected to Y1, Y2, Y3 respect.. 


ATC Pneumatic Arm Operation and Repair with Anilam 6000i 

control 

ATC Operation Guidelines 

• Due to the complexity and timing of the ATC, it should only be operated with the M6 command. 

• Never interrupt the tool changer in the middle of cycle, wait for it to complete the tool change. If a low air alarm sets and 

the tool gets stuck in the spindle, then go to the recovery section on page 3 of this document. 

• This is a random access tool changer to reduce tool change time. The machine will always keep track of the correct tool even 

though it may not agree with the bin #. You can have the carousel move to the next tool requested with a T# command on a 

line by itself. When a tool change is specified (M6) this tool # will be loaded into the spindle. 

• If the t code is programmed on the same line as the M6 command make sure the M6 is before the T code (example: M6T4). 

• Most tools have a deeper notch on one side of the tools v-flange. The ATC carousel will only allow this deeper notch to fit into 

the carousel key. Make sure when installing tools in spindle this orientation is verified. After spindle orientation the key slot on 

the v-flange of the tool furthest from the operator will align with the key on the carousel. 

• The carousel motor is a 3 phase motor and must be phased correctly for proper direction. M58 will increase carousel position 

to next higher tool number. The machine is phased properly at the factory before shipment, so if carousel rotates wrong 

direction switch any two incoming power wires at disconnect. Make sure main power breaker is off! 

Manual operation of tool change solenoid valves 

If the tool changer gets hung up the solenoid valves can be operated manually to reset the tool changer. Here is a description 

of the operation of the valves. Access the air solenoid valves for the tool changer behind the door on the front of the ATC. 

There is a diagram of the operation of each solenoid. These can be run manually by depressing the blue manual override 

buttons. Make sure you push the buttons in sequence otherwise damage could be done to the ATC. There are three two way 

solenoid valves mounted horizontally. The top solenoid valve controls the carousel tool pot; left button returns tool pot to up 

position, right button drops pot down. The middle solenoid controls the arm movement 60° under the spindle and to normal 

rest position. The right button moves the arm under the spindle nose to grab a tool, left button moves the arm back to its 

normal clearance position. The bottom solenoid controls the arm down and 180° and arm up. The right button moves the arm 

down and then 180°, the left button returns the arm up. 

The proper sequence of a tool change and the respective M-codes is as follows: 

(Note that you will have to press the cycle start button twice to execute these commands) 

1. T-code to move carousel to pending tool 

2. M52 tool pot down 

3. M68 moves z axis to tool change position 

4. M60 spindle orient 

5. M62 Arm moves under spindle to grab tool and carousel pot 

6. M54 turns drawbar on 

7. M64 Arm removes tool from spindle and carousel tool pot and swaps them 

8. M65 arm up to install pending tool in spindle and old tool into carousel pot. 

9. M55 Drawbar off to grab tool in spindle. 

10. M63 Arm origin 

11. M53 carousel tool pot up 


Tool Change Height Adjustment 

The proper tool change height must be set for the ATC to perform correctly. The tool change height (machine coordinates 

from home position) is stored in parameter NP_DG_TC_pos_Z_put_in. This will have to be checked if the home position is 

different due to removing the z motor or home switch or dog. Here is a procedure to set this height correctly: There is some 

allowance ( play ) allowed for the tool change height (about .03”) This is the difference between the v flange groove of the tool 

and the v location of the arm . You will see this vertical play if you install a tool into the arm when the machine is in e-stop. 

Make sure you do not leave the tool there! 

1. Home the machine. 

2. Move the z-axis to the tool change height with an M68 command in manual mode. The number is derived from the distance 

from home position (machine zero) to the proper height for tool change. To get to this parameter from manual mode: 

-Press shift 

-(F3) config 

-Password= 222 (may not be necessary if you already typed in the password) 

-(F6) config data 

-Now you will have to follow the directory tree by opening up each folder and edvancing into the proper subfolders. The 

path is a follows: System-PLC-cfgoemposition The parameter for tool change height is: NP_DG_TC_pos_z_put_in. 

That number is in MM (millimeters) and is a negative value. Change display to read in MM to get a direct read out in the 

Machine Coordinates box in Z =(ex. -62.408 MM) 

3. Orient the spindle with an M60 command. 

4. Install a tool in the spindle. 

5. Press the middle right solenoid manual button to grab the tool, see the description of manual solenoid operation. 

6. Look to see if the position of the z axis will cause the v flange groove of the tool is in the center of the arm v notch. Return the 

arm manually back out of way with the middle left button on the solenoid valve. Adjust the tool change height parameter 

outlined in step 2 and repeat until correct alignment is achieved. 

7. At this time you can alternate the middle left and middle right button to check for smooth engagement of the arm into and 

away from the tool. If the arm doesn’t respond smoothly then further z axis height adjustment may be required. 

Spindle Orient Adjustment 

1. With z axis at maximum positive limit and ATC arm under spindle nose (manual solenoid button 2 nd on right). Make sure 

spindle can be spun without spindle keys hitting ATC arm. 

2. Orient spindle with M60 

3. Look to see if spindle keys are in alignment with notch in the arm. 

4. In manual follow the steps below to get to the orient postion parameter: 

-Press shift 

-Password=222 (may not be necessary if you already typed in the password) 

-(F6) config data 

-Now you will have to follow the directory tree by opening up each folder and edvancing into the proper subfolders. The 

path is a follows: System-PLC-cfgoemposition The parameter for spindle orient position is: NP_DG_TC_pos_spindle 

5. Command M5 cycle start. This will turn off the orient command. 

6. Repeat steps 2 and 5 and adjust parameter until correct. 

Recovering From Tool Change Failure 

If the tool changer fails you may get an alarm “timeout in spindle sequence”, this means that after 30 seconds of waiting a 

function did not get it’s proper finish signal. You must look to see what function did not complete. It most likely had to do with 

movement of the arm. Look at the solenoid valves, the solenoid valve that is illuminated is the operation that failed. Press 

emergency stop. If the arm did not complete grabbing the tool, make sure the pot is down and then press the arm return 

manual button. Refer to manual operation of tool changer pneumatic solenoid valves. After the arm is returned to normal 

resting position, tool is removed from the spindle and carousel pot returned manually, the carousel pots may have to be reset. 

If the carousel does not rotate check the fuses in the electrical cabinet. Refer to electrical schematics in maintenance manual. 


Tool Carousel Reset 

To reset all the tool bin locations follow this procedure. 

1. Remove tool from spindle 

2. In MDI command : M6T0 cycle start 

3. Remove any tool from spindle 

4. In MDI command : M61 cycle start ( this will index carousel to bin #1 ) 

5. Go to tool table, soft key F9, and then press soft key F4 BIN. The bin numbers on the left hand side will be 0-#pots in 

carousel, set the tool number to the same as the bin number leaving bin 0 blank. 

6. Remove all tools from carousel and reinstall. 

Arm Alignment 

If the arm no longer moves in the proper angular alignment then an adjustment may 

be required. The arm is held in place on the arm shaft with a compression clamp. 

1. Install tool in spindle 

2. Orient spindle M60 

3. Install tool in carousel pot 

4. Drop carousel pot down with manual button(top right) 

5. Move z axis to tool change height M68 

6. Move arm to grab tools with manual button.(middle right) 

7. Loosen socket head cap screws at bottom center of arm and align arm to grab tools fully. Once completed adjustment tighten 

screws. 

8. Move arm back to origin location with manual button (middle left) 

9. Remove tools 

10. Reset carousel pot back up with manual button. (top left) 

11. Turn off orient with M5 command

Renishaw Tool Probe Installation 

This will assist you in setting up and installing your Renishaw TS-27R tool probe on your Fryer milling machine with Anilam 

control. Make sure you read the instruction manual that came with the Renishaw probe and the Anilam manual pertaining to 

probing cycles. 

The probe has been pre-wired and tested on the Fryer machine at the factory. The manuals also can be downloaded in PDF 

format from either Renishaw.com or Anilam.com Installation should be completed at the customer’s facility. Follow these 

basic instructions referring to the manufacturers manuals for further details: 

1. Find a suitable mounting location for the probe ( most common is the far right hand corner of the table ) The probe 

should be mounted with the stylus pointing up and towards the left, this will exit the cable to the right. The Stylus 

should be approximately ½ the largest tool diameter used from the positive limit in x axis and at the rearmost t-slot(as 

long as it is a couple inches from the y limit). A t-nut can be used to mount the probe base with a ½-13 socket head 

cap screw. Make sure the cable will not interfere with anything during machine operation. 

2. Once the probe is securely mounted tram the probe within .0002” perpendicular and parallel to the machine slides. 

See Renishaw installation manual for further details. 

3. Follow the Anilam instructions to set the parameters according to your installation. 

4. Now you will need a tool with a known diameter to preset the tool presetter. You should use the Anilam G150 or tool 

probe calibration cycle. See the Anilam manual for further details. 

5. Once the G150 cycle is accomplished a G53 fixture offset should be activated and set to the top of the part so that all 

other tool to be set with the G151 cycle will be referenced to the top of the part. 


Fryer Optional Chiller Instructions 

Used on all optional high speed spindles and automatic gearbox 

INSTALLATION: The chiller has been wired and tested at the factory. The reservoir is filled with ISO#32 spindle oil. At 

installation check the level at the tank sight glass and top off as necessary. The ambient temperature to run the chiller must be 

between 41°-104° Fahrenheit (5-40°Celsius). The working range of the chiller is between 77°-95° Fahrenheit (25-35° Celsius). 

The factory preset is to run at 77° F. This is the optimal setting for most applications. The chiller must be located in a clean 

dry area with good ventilation and level. 

WIRING: The chiller is pre-wired at the factory. Incoming 3 phase power is applied at terminals R-S-T. Ground is connected 

to E. Terminals 93 and 95 are fault contacts going back to the CNC control. Terminals 224 and 225 are the remote start inputs. 

Do not turn the chiller off or on with the on switch on the chiller operator panel. This will bypass the remote on from the CNC 

and cause an alarm on the CNC. 

ADJUSTMENT: The display on the chiller normally shows the oil temperature. To adjust the preset temperature when the 

refrigeration will cycle on press the left arrow button. The display will now show the preset value. This should be set at 25° 

Celsius (77°Fahrenheit). Use the right and left arrow keys to adjust. Wait for 5 seconds and the display should revert back to 

displaying the liquid temperature. 

TROUBLESHOOTING: 

1. Alarm on CNC control “Spindle chiller alarm”: Look at the chiller for any alarms. If the display is blank press the 

ON button on the chiller. If there still is no display check the fuses in the CNC electrical cabinet (normally fuses D1- 

D2_D3). 

2. If there is an alarm displayed on the chiller,here is a brief listing: 

AL-1 REV: Phase failure or out of phase, The is not three phase present or line is out of phase. Switch any two lines 

at the terminal strip in the chiller R-S or T. Check the fuses in the CNC cabinet. 

AL-2 PUMP: The pump motor is not functioning properly. 

-Check that there is no obstruction in lines 

-Reverse red and white wire of thermal relay 51P in chiller 

-Replace pump 

-Add recirculating oil to the reservoir 

-Adjsut the oil pressure switch to .3kgf/cm2 under .5-.8cmHg 

-Reset the thermal overload 

AL-3 COMP: The compressor motor is not functioning properly. 

-Reset the thermal overload 

-Replace the compressor 

AL-4 RA: Temperature probe of the room is not functioning properly 

-Replace the RA room temperature probe 

AL-5 RO: Temperature probe of oil is abnormal 

-Replace the RO liquid temperature sensor 

AL-6 OT: The cooling oil is overheating 

-Shut down the coller and wait until the temperature drops to acceptable levels. 

-Recharge Freon. 

-Check level of oil 

MAINTENANCE: 

-Clean the filter net periodically as required. 

-Replace oil as required and make sure there is no blockage in the lines.
