conguraon:
• If power drawbar (oponal) is installed:
Route through power drawbar’s cable
carrier and out to back of mill (see Figure 9).
• If no power drawbar is installed: Holding control cable from SmartCool Head Unit in locaon Cas
shown in Figure 10, slowly run spindle head up and down to ensure clearance through full range of
moon in Z direcon. Loosen center screw on Z-axis motor mount plate; using one zip e and one zip

locaon idened in step 2.
5. Remove Push-to-connect Fing from Tube
(see Figure 17); install on Coolant Hose Adapter
using adjustable wrench (see Figure 16).
Make Coolant Connections
SmartCool units are pre-congured for use with ood
coolant, but can be congured to use mist coolant as
the primary coolant source.
NOTE: An oponal MulCoolant Module (PN 37168)
allows the SmartCool to use ood coolant and mist
coolant simultaneously – along with several other
conguraons. For more informaon, refer to
SmartCool MulCoolant Module secon later in this
document.

Calibrate with PathPilot
Using a tool of a known length, calibrate the height of the coolant ow from SmartCool by issuing a M08 or M07
command in PathPilot and mechanically adjusng assembly installaon on spindle head casng.
1. To calibrate SmartCool, insert a measured tool
into spindle and acvate length oset. For more
informaon, refer to mill Operator Manual.
2. In MDI line, type M8 P0 to turn on ood
coolant and aim stream at p of tool (for more
informaon, refer to Programming Guide
secon later in this document).
3. Observe coolant stream; if necessary, adjust
SmartCool Head Unit within Mounng Bracket
(see Figure 25) to visually correct for uneven
mounng. Adjust unl coolant stream is in line
with tool p.
4. Tighten down screws securing SmartCool Head
Unit to Mounng Bracket.
5. If necessary, coolant stream can be further
adjusted in PathPilot to posion on tool p as
shown in Figure 26. Type ADMIN SMARTCOOL_
OFFSET to raise or lower the coolant stream;
posive values move the coolant stream up,
negave values move the coolant stream down
(for more informaon, refer to Programming
Guide secon later in this document).
