The ARO@ model 8670-( ) self-feed drill is designed to automatitally feed to a pre-set depth, trip and return.
The models 8670-( ) are available with either a 1 -1/2” or 3” stroke
RETRACT FEED CONTROL VALVE
The three basic sections of the model 8670-( ) are arranged for
efficient maintenance. The following is a brief description of the
sections and their functions.
VALVE SECTION
The valve section is composed of a spool valve, timing valve, reversing valve, manual start and manual retract valves, retract
feed regulating valve and also houses remote start and remote retract ports, a depth signal and an auxiliary supply port.
The function of the 4-way spool valve is to port air to the piston for
the forward and retract strokes.
length and in five (5) different spindle speeds. The combination of
stroke lengths and free speeds appear as models above.
The models 8670-( ) may be used in single unit or multiple unit
applications.

ing valve can be adjusted so the unit retracts immediately upon
completion of the drilling stroke or it can be adjusted to delay the
retract stroke anywhere in the range from 0 to approximately
seven (7) seconds.
The function of the reversing valve is to port air to the spool valve,
causing it to shift to the retract stroke position at the completion of
the timing cycle.
The drilling stroke is started by manually actuating the start valve,
located at top of valve housing. The unit will advance the drill to a
pre-set depth and automatically retract to the initial position,
whereupon the unit will stop with all air to the unit shut off.
The function of the timing valve is to regulate the time lapse be-
tween the end of the drilling stroke and the retract stroke. The tim2
The unit may be shifted to the retract stroke at any time during the
drilling cycle by manually depressing the retract valve, located at
Page 3
top of valve housing. The unit will immediately retract to the initial
position, whereupon the unit will stop with all air to the unit shut off.
The needle type retract feed control valve regulates the flow of air
from the piston, thus regulating the rate of retraction of the unit.
The model 8670-( ) is furnished with a hydraulic check to control
the rate of forward feed of the unit-see page 12 for set-up procedure.
SPECIAL NOTE: There are two needle valves (34617) contained
in the valve block. One needle valve is for the retract feed control.
The other needle valve [visible only after the removal of the name-
plate (45184)) should not be adjusted or removed. If this needle
valve should ever be removed, the correct assembled position is
-the top of the needle valve flush with the top of the valve block.
The unit may be operated remotely thru the use of the start and
retract signal ports located in top of the valve housing, using recommended fittings, tubing and valves - see page 16.
The auxiliary supply port is pressurized whenever air is present at
the air inlet of the tool.
The depth signal port is momentarily pressurized at the comple-
tion of the forward feed stroke when the retract valve (44981) is
actuated and can be used to activate a remote valve for the purpose of starting another tool or an accessory function.

The tool retracted signal port is located in rear of piston rod
(44928-). The port is pressurized when motor starts and remains
pressurized during the drilling cycle, until motor shuts off when
unit is fully retracted.
The valve section can be easily removed from tool for servicing
and replaced with a spare unit, eliminating excessive down-time
of tool. See page 4 for removal instructions.
MOTOR AND GEARING SECTION
The motor and gearing section has been designed into a single
unit that can be easily removed from tool and replaced with a
spare unit while it is being serviced or repaired, eliminating excessive down-time of tool. See page 4 for removal from tool.
HOUSING AND VALVE SECTION
The housing and valve section consists of a main housing, which
houses the piston section and motor and gearing section, and the
valve housing, which houses the retract valve that is actuated by
the adjustment screw contained in the trip bracket. The retract
valve components are accessible by removing striker plate
(44987) from rear of valve housing. The piston and components
are accessible by separating the main housing from the
housing. See page 4 for disassembly procedure.

MOUNTING
The nose end of tool housing is provided with 2-7/8”-16 I.h.
threads and a 2.873” x 2-1/4” long pilot diameter for fixture mounting. A foot type mounting bracket and nose housing are available
SET-UP PROCEDURE
At the time the model 8670-( ) self-feed drill is set up for operation, a minimum distance of 1/4” must be maintained between the
work piece and the point of the drill bit, with the drilling unit in the
fully retracted position. This will allow the air motor to start and
reach free speed before the drill reaches the work piece.
STROKE ADJUSTMENT
Determine the total stroke length the drill must travel to perform
the drilling operation (see figure 1). Adjust the length of the stroke
by loosening the two cap screws (Y99-42) which secure the trip
bracket to the piston rod. Position the trip bracket on the piston rod
so the distance between the trip bracket and the striker plate is
somewhat greater than the desired stroke length and tighten the
two screws (Y99-42), securing trip bracket on piston rod. Next, rotate adjustment screw (Y157-64) so the distance between the
leading edge of the screw and the striker plate equals the desired
total stroke length. A final adjustment of the adjustment screw can
be made while testing the drilling operation on a few scrap work
pieces to insure desired drilling depth is obtained.
as accessory items for tool mounting (see accessories section).
The tool can be mounted in any position desired without impairing
the function of the tool (see set-up procedure).
FEED CONTROL VALVES
The models 8670-( ) are shipped from the factory with the retract
feed regulating valve set at a fairly slow rate of feed. Turn valve
counterclockwise to increase rate of feed. Turn valve clockwise to
decrease rate of feed.
TIMING VALVES (59231 METERING NEEDLE)
The timing valve (59231 metering needle), located at the rear of
the valve section, is used to regulate the time lapse between the
time the drill bit has reached the pm-set drilling depth and the time
the unit retracts. The timing valve can be adjusted so the unit will
retract immediately, up thru a range of approximately seven se-
conds (0 - 7 seconds). Turn the timing valve clockwise (in) to in-
crease the time delay. Turn the valve counterclockwise (out) to
decrease the time delay.
NOTE: A final adjustment of the adjusting screw (Y157-64) may
be necessary after adjusting the timing valve to insure precise
depth of drilling operation.

AIR AND LUBE REQUIREMENTS
Air pressure of 90 p.s.i.g. (6 bar) at the air inlet of the tool is required for maximum motor efficiency. If necessary, an air regulator
should be installed to maintain this pressure when tool is in operation.
Filtered and oiled air will allow the tool to operate more efficiently
and yield a longer life to operating parts and mechanisms. A line
filter capable of filtering particles larger than 50 microns should be
used with a line oiler.
Filter-Regulator-Lubricator (F-R-L) assembly model RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS: Spindle oil 29665, 1 qt. (.9 liter)
C28241-810 is recommended for use with this air tool. The ca- container for oiler and air inlet; Grease 33153, 5 lb. (2.3 kg) can for
pacity of the individual filter-lubricator is adequate to provide gears and bearings; “0” ring lubricant 36460, 4 oz. (113 g) tube for
clean (40 micron) oiled and regulated air for the tool. lubrication and installation of “0” rings.
Inject 33153 grease (3 to 4 strokes) thru grease fitting located at
top of main housing after each 160 hours of operation, or as experience indicates, for lubrication of gearing and spindle bearings.
NOTE: Be sure tool is in the fully retracted position when injecting
grease thru fitting. CAUTION: An excessive amount of lubricant in
a tool will affect the speed and power.
Air tools are made of precision parts and should be handled with
reasonable care when servicing. Excessive pressure exerted by
a holding device may cause distortion of a part. Apply pressure
evenly when disassembling (or assembling) parts which have a
press fit. When removing or installing bearings, apply pressure to
the bearing race that will be press fit to the mating part; if this is not
practiced, Brinelling of the bearing races will occur, making replacement necessary. It is important that the correct tools and fixtures are used when servicing this air tool.
Disassembly should be done on a clean work bench with a clean
cloth spread to prevent the loss of small parts. After disassembly
is completed, all parts should be thoroughly washed in a clean solvent, blown dry with air and inspected for wear levels, abuse and
contamination.
Double sealed or shielded bearings should never be placed in
solvent unless a good method of relubricating the bearing is available. Open bearings may be washed but should not be allowed to
spin while being blown dry. When replacement parts are necessary, consult drawing containing the part for identification.
Before reassembling, lubricate parts where required. Use 33153
grease, or equivalent, in bearings. Use 36460 lubricant for “0
ring assembly. When assembling “0” rings, care must be exercised to prevent damage to the rubber sealing surfaces. A small
amount of grease will usually hold steel balls and other small parts
in place while assembling.
Disconnect air supply from tool or shut off air supply and drain line
of compressed air before performing maintenance or service to
tool.
Before starting to disassemble or assemble this tool (any part or
completely), be sure to read “Maintenance” section.
To minimize the possibility of parts damage and for convenience,
the steps for disassembly or assembly listed on the following
pages are recommended.
The basic sections and instructions for removing them from the
tool are as follows:

The dual hydraulic check assembly (46133- ) is an accessory
item used to replace the standard hydraulic check when additional thrust control during the drilling operation and/or at breakthrough is required.
The dual system can be used when two different thrust control requirements are needed - for example, a 2” stroke length check
and a 1” stroke length check. When used together, the 2” stroke
length check controls the initial part of the drilling operation and
the 1” stroke is set to give additional control at breakthrough.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Remove hydraulic check assembly supplied with tool.
Determine which of the three mounting positions on housing is
best suited for the operation to be performed and assemble
mounting bracket (46130) to housing using the three 1/4”- 20 x
5/8” long cap screws (Y99-458) and tighten securely. Insert hydraulic checks thru mounting bracket, positioning for desired
stroke and secure with the two 1/4”-20 x 1-114” long cap screws
(Y99-43) and two washers (30997).
Remove trip bracket (44909) from tool and remove the two clamping screws (Y99-42) and washers (30997) and the adjusting

AS-
screw (Y157-64) from the trip bracket for use with the new trip
bracket (46132).
Assemble adapter plate (48131) to trip bracket (46132) and secure with the two 1/4”- 20 x 1/2” long cap screws (Y94-40) and
two washers (30997). Assemble the two clamping screws
(Y9942) with washers (30997) and the adjusting screw
(Y157-64) to trip bracket and assemble the trip bracket to tool.
Position trip bracket on piston rod for desired stroke and tighten
the two screws (Y99-42), securing trip bracket on piston rod.
SET-UP PROCEDURE
Basically, the set-up procedure for the dual hydraulic checks is
the same as for the single hydraulic check, except you will be doing each step of the set-up twice. After the stroke length set-up is
made, synchronize the two checks more or less by rotating the
feed rate adjustment of each check to approximately the same
number. This is when two checks of the same stroke lengths are
being used to control thrust.
When using two checks of different stroke lengths, testing set-up
on a few scrap work pieces will be the best way in determining
proper rates of feed.

Your ARO self-feed tool is designed to deliver specific horsepowerand thrust to achieve high rates of work. To assure the unit will develop this
power, care must be taken that the power air Inlet system Is correctly sized to permit the proper rate of air flow. Shown above is a system for a
single tool that will supply correct dellvery.
IMPORTANT: The tool is power-rated when 90 p.s.i. is present at the tool during operation. To check operating air pressure at the tool, a pressure
gauge may be installed in a 1/8” n.p.t. port marked “Auxiliary Supply”. CAUTION: This port Is pressurized when tool Is connected to air supply.
Shown below Is the same system in schematic form.
If two units are to be Installed, each unit should be supplied with a system like that shown below or use two systems Iike that above.

BASIC REMOTE CONTROL FOR START
AND EMERGENCY RETRACT FUNCTIONS
REMOTE OPERATION
Remote operation of the unit may be achieved by connecting a 3-way valve to the remote start and/or remote retract ports, as shown above.
TO START: Depress the remote start button momentarily. The unit will advance the drill to a pre-set depth and automatically retract to the initial
