G1006/G1007 Mill/Drill
SECTION 6: OPERATIONS
The power feed will move the table in the X-plane
only.
To operate the power feed:
1. Loosen the table locking levers located just
below the front edge of the table.
2. Adjust the table stops to the right and left to
the desired distance you wish the table to
travel. When they hit the switch the power
feed will be deactivated.
Power feed
Movement:
The Mill/Drill table can be moved in the X-Y plane
only. The handwheel(s) on the side(s) of the table
move the table either left or right. The handwheel
in the front of the table will move the table back
and forth.
One complete revolution of either handwheel
moves the table 0.100".
Locking:
The table can be locked in either direction. Y-
plane movement is stopped by locking the two
lever-screws located just below the front middle
of the table. The X-plane movement is stopped
by locking the two butterfly screws located under
the table on the right side of the base.
Table Movement
7. Press the “rapid switch” with the lever
pushed in the direction of desired move-
ment to move the table at maximum veloc-
ity.
8. If there is a powerfeed motor overload (i.e.
trying to move too fast through a heavy
cut), the built in circuit breaker will trip, and
the powerfeed will stop. If this occurs, pro-
ceed with these steps:
a.Stop the milling operation.
b.Turn the powerfeed switch to the “off”
position.
c.Press the circuit breaker reset button
located in the upper left front corner
of the power feed unit.
d.Troubleshoot and remedy the cause
of the electrical overload and start
again.
3. Use the switch located to the left of the
power feed lever to turn on the power feed.
4. Push the lever to the right to move the
table to the right.
5. Push the lever to the left to move the table
to the left.
6. Turn the dial at the base of the lever to
increase or decrease the speed of table
movement.
Before running your power feed be sure
there is enough running clearance between
the table, spindle, vise, clamps and/or
parts. Be aware that all of these can
become pinch points.
NOTICE
The table stops supplied with the machine
will not stop the powerfeed until the switch
buttons are totally depressed. To set up for
accurate stops make a few “dry runs” with-
out running the Mill/Drill. Reset the stops
until the table motion ends in a satisfactory
location.
