PREPARATION
8. Listen for abnormal noises and watch for
unexpected actions from the mill. The
machine should run smoothly and without
excessive vibration or rubbing noises.
— Strange or unusual noises or actions
must be investigated immediately. Press
the emergency STOP button to turn the
machine OFF and disconnect it from
the power source before investigating or
correcting potential problems.
9. Press the emergency STOP button to turn
the machine OFF, then wait for the spindle
to stop on its own.
10. WITHOUT resetting the emergency STOP
button, press the ON button. The machine
should not start.
— If the machine does not start, the
emergency STOP button safety feature is
working correctly.
— If the machine does start (with the
emergency STOP button pushed in),
immediately disconnect power to the
machine. The emergency STOP button
safety feature is not working correctly.
This safety feature must work properly
before proceeding with regular operations.
Call Tech Support for help.
11. Press the OFF button, then turn the spindle
direction switch to the off (middle) position
to prevent the spindle from starting when
you next use the ON button.
The mill comes with a power feed unit for X-axis
table travel. Proper operation of the limit switch
attached to the front middle of the table is
critical for the safe use of this power feed unit.
If the power feed does not operate as expected
during the following steps, disconnect it from
power and contact our Tech Support at (360) 734-
1540 for assistance.
To test the X-axis power feed unit and table
limit switch:
1. Make sure all tools, cables, and other items
are well clear of table movement as you
follow these steps.
2. Refer to the Table Movement section,
beginning on Page 29, to understand how
the power feed, table locks, and limit switch
function.
3. Loosen the table locks on the front of the
table.
4. Plug the power feed power cord into a 110V
power outlet.
Note: There are 110V outlets on the right side of
the electrical cabinet that can be used for the
power feed or other 110V accessories.
5. Make sure the power feed directional lever
is in the neutral (middle) position, turn the
speed dial counterclockwise to the lowest
setting, then flip the power switch to the on
(up) position.
6. Turn the directional lever to the left, slowly
turn the speed dial clockwise to increase the
speed, then confirm that the table is moving
to the left.
7. Watch for the table limit stop to hit the
limit switch and turn the power feed OFF,
stopping the table movement.
8. Turn the directional lever through the
neutral (middle) position and all the way to
the right. The table should begin moving to
the right.
9. Confirm that the table stops moving when
the limit stop presses against the limit
switch plunger.
10. Move the directional lever to the neutral
(middle) position and flip the power switch to
the off (down) position.
