    Question Tornado 80 alarms out undersize bar

    Hi Im Michael and this is my first post.

    Tornado 80 collet pressure needs adjusting how do I do this as I cant find the pressure control valve. When the bar size is bottom limit on the collet the machine alarms out.

    Can anyone advice.

    are you sure you don't need to adjust the sensors?

    thanks gricha,
    overcame this problem by adjusting the collet screw by a turn then also adjusting the sensors, as before the sensor was hard up to the limit.

    Michael.
