Preparing for Milling
1. Adjust the positive stop gauge to its uppermost position.
2. Using the spindle feed handle, adjust the bit to approximately the correct height. Tighten the
knob in the center of the spindle feed handle (#16).
3. Set the nal vertical adjustment using the micro feed handle.
4. Lock the rack sleeve at this height with the xed bolt.
Preparing for Tapping
1. Adjust the positive depth gauge to the required position.
2. Loosen the knob in the center of the spindle feed handle.
Adjusting Table Slack and Compensating for Wear
1. Your machine is equipped with gib strip adjustment
to compensate for wear and excess slack on cross and
longitudinal travel.
2. Rotate the gib strip bolt slightly counterclockwise to
tighten the gib strip. Rotate it slightly clockwise to loosen
the gib strip.
3. Adjust the gib strip bolt until very slight drag is felt when
moving the table.
Locking the Table Base and Machine Base
1. When milling using the longitudinal feed, it is a good idea
to lock the cross feed table to ensure the accuracy of your
work. To do this, tighten the small leaf screw located on
the right side of the table base.
2. When milling using the cross feed, lock the longitudinal
travel. Do this by tightening the two small leaf screws on
the front of the table base.
3. Adjustable travel stops are mounted on the front of the
table to limit cross travel, and therefore milling length.
Changing Machine Speed
1. Turn the power off.

To select the proper speed, move the speed lever to the desired position. See Figure 6.
3. If the lever does not move smoothly and completely, remove the arbor bolt cover (#21). Rotate
the spindle slightly to engage the gears, then replace the arbor bolt cover.
4. Recheck the lever setting, and then turn the power on.
