2. Turn the Z-axis handwheel shown in Figure
14 to raise or lower the headstock, then lock

lock lever locked and with the fine feed lock
knob tightened.

Headstock Travel
(Z-Axis and Rotation)
Headstock height is adjustable in the vertical Z-
axis to accept large workpieces. For unique mill
-
ing operations, the headstock can be tilted right
or left between 0° and 90°. Your mill/drill has a
dovetailed slide that allows you to reposition the
headstock and change tooling without losing your
alignment with a hole or milling path.
To raise or lower the headstock
:
1. Unlock the headstock slide lock lever shown
in Figure 13.

To tilt the headstock to the left or right:
1. DISCONNECT THE MILL/DRILL FROM
POWER.
2. Using a 17mm wrench, loosen both head-
stock tilt acorn lock nuts
(Figure 15).
3. Insert a 6mm hex wrench into the index pin
release port
(Figure 15), and turn the hex
wrench clockwise to disengage the spring-
loaded index pin from the headstock.
4. While watching the tilt scale, rotate the head-
stock to the required angle, and retighten the
tilt acorn lock nuts to hold the headstock in
place.
Note: The index pin is spring loaded and
serves only as a quick way to return the
headstock close to zero. It is not intended to
be an absolute zero degree stop. No other
index holes exist at other angles in the head
-
stock.
