Excessive Way Oil Consumption
Good morning to all!! I have a 1997 VF - 4 that never stops running the way oil lube pump. I have also noticed that the air/oil valve to the spindle is always on??? I have 30+ Haas units and have never seen this before. We purchased this machine back in June 2010 from a company that went under. When I say excessive...It goes through a tank of oil every 8-10 hrs. (machine setting idle.) I have way oil overtaking the coolant as it runs out of the machine. Can anyone give me an avenue to start looking. Where might there be a switch that cuts power to the unit when the spindle is not running? Thanks in advance!!!
Just a good ol' boy, never meanin' no harm.
