Note: Using the leadscrew for powered movement
of the carriage is discussed in the Threading sub-
section starting on Page 40.
NOTICE
High feed rates combined with high spindle
speeds results in a rapidly moving carriage
or cross slide. Pay close attention to the
feed rate you have chosen and keep your
hand poised over the feed change lever.
Failure to fully understand how to operate
the power feed can lead to carriage or cross
slide crash that may permanently damage
the machine.
To engage the feed rod:

nisms.
