2. Tighten the adjustment screw.
3. Test the adjustment by turning one of the side
handwheels. You should detect less than
0.010" of play.
To adjust the Y-plane leadscrew:
1. Access the underside of the base through the
hole in the bench under the base.
2. Locate the adjuster midway along the
leadscrew, inside the base.
3. Tighten the set screw on the adjuster.
4. Test the adjustment by turning the front
handwheel. You should detect less than
0.010" of play.
Table Leadscrews
When you turn the handwheels to adjust the posi-
tion of the table, you will notice slight play in the
handwheel before the table begins to move. If this
play exceeds 0.010" (measured with the dial at
the base of each handwheel), then you will need
to adjust the leadscrews.
These adjusters may require you to fabricate
extensions for your hex wrenches. Make adjust-
ments in small increments. Over-tightening can
add unnecessary wear to both the leadscrews
and the adjusters.
To adjust the X-plane leadscrew:
1. Locate the X-plane leadscrew adjuster under
the middle of the table. The head on the
adjustment screw faces to the right (Figure
41).
