THE POWER KEY
The Power Key is used to turn the Metal/Woodworking Machine on and off. Always
keep the Power Key out of reach of children and other unauthorized people. Before
turning the Key to its “ON” position, make sure the Variable Speed Control Dial is set at
its lowest setting. (See page 16 and 17.)
TO MOVE THE POWERHEAD
To slide the Powerhead on the way tubes loosen the two Lock Knobs. Then crank the
Travel Hand Wheel. The Powerhead and Carriage travel on Way Tubes. The Way
Tubes allow for more precise movement of the Powerhead in horizontal or vertical
positions. Always retighten both Lock Knobs after positioning the Powerhead. (See
page 16 and 27.)
TO MOVE THE QUILL FEED
The Quill Feed Handles located on the front and back of the Powerhead extend 5” from
the Quill. Behind the front Quill Feed Handle is the Quill Feed Lock. Make sure to
engage the Lock once the Quill has been extended.
TO ADJUST SPEED BELTS AND PULLEYS
The Powerhead features a lower and upper Pulley located under the Pulley
Cover. A decal on top of the Pulley Cover refers to the V-Belt location on the
Upper Pulley. The V-Belt for all three Pulley congurations must be straight.
Never attempt to cross a Lower Pulley with one that is not directly above it. The
decal illustrates pulley selection to corresponding RPM:
Position #1 = 32 to 900 RPM
Position #2 = 1200 to 3600 RPM
Position #3 = 4000 to 7200 RPM
To change speeds with different Pulley positions:
Loosen the Pulley Cover Lock on the back of the Woodworking Machine.
Slide the Pulley Cover away from the Powerhead.
Lift the Belt Tension Lock Lever up.
Lift the Motor Mount Bracket up to release tension on the V-Belts.
While slowly rotating the Upper Pulley, pull the V-Belt off its Pulley.
Reposition the V-Belt on the new, matched, Pulley setting.
Push the Motor Mount Bracket down to tighten the V-Belt tension. Then push
the Belt Tension Lock Lever down to keep the desired tension on the V-Belt.
Set the Pulley Cover back in place and tighten the Cover Lock. (See page 16.)
