OPERATION
Operation Overview
The purpose of this overview is to give an
example of a typical milling operation. Read
through the steps below to better understand
the controls and functions described later in this
manual, so that you will know how they are used
to successfully operate the mill.
This overview is not intended to be a step-by-step
operational guide.
In a typical milling operation, the operator
does the following:
1. Examines the workpiece to make sure it is
suitable for milling.
2. Firmly clamps the workpiece to the table.
3. Installs the correct cutting tool for the
operation.
4. Uses the manual downfeed and table
controls to confirm the correct positioning
of the cutting tool and workpiece for the
operation. If the X-axis power feed will be
used during the operation, the operator
confirms the speed and length of table
movement required.
To reduce the risk of
serious injury when using
this machine, read and
understand this entire
manual before beginning
any operations.
Loose hair, clothing, or
jewelry could get caught
in machinery and cause
serious personal injury.
Keep these items away
from moving parts at all
times to reduce this risk.
During operation, small
metal chips may become
airborne, leading to serious
eye injury. Wear safety
glasses to reduce this risk.
5. Configures the mill for the correct spindle
speed of the operation.
6. Puts on personal protective gear and makes
sure the workpiece and table are clear of all
tools, cords, and other items.
7. Starts the spindle rotation and performs the
operation.
8. Turns the mill OFF.
