SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS

Graduated Dials

The graduated dials on the handwheels for the

table and fine feed can be indexed or “zeroed” to

help make accurate and convenient movements.

Each dial can be reset or locked with the set-

screw or thumbscrew provided.

Example:

Suppose you want to drill a series of holes in a

workpiece at 0.625" centers. After locating the

first hole’s placement and drilling, you can set

the dial of the appropriate axis to zero while

holding the handwheel. Move the table 0.625".

Drill the next hole and proceed as above.

You have two options for spindle height adjust-

ment - a drill press style, levered downfeed and a

micro adjustment handwheel. The three levers

are located on the right, forward portion of the

head. The micro adjustment handwheel is on the

front right hand side of the head.

To operate the feed lever:

There are 3 levers with knobs located on the right

side of the headstock. Pull the lever nearest you.

The spindle will go down until you stop pulling or

until it hits the depth stop.

To operate the micro-adjustment handwheel:

1. Tighten the locking knob located on the

center of the hub for the down-feed levers.

2. Locking out the levered downfeed will

transfer control to the handwheel. The

handwheel will not function if the locking

knob is loose.

3. Loosen the setscrew on the rim surface of

Spindle Height

the handwheel dial. Turn the dial until the

“0” lines up with the index line. Tighten the

setscrew.

4. Turn the handwheel according to the dis-

tance you want to move downward. Each

complete revolution equals 0.100".

Locking:

For milling operations, the spindle height can

be locked in by tightening the lever on the for-

ward, left hand portion of the head.

The depth stop is used to control the range of

downward movement by the drill bit or cutter.

Maximum depth is 5".

To calibrate the depth stop:

1. Make sure the spindle is drawn all the way

up into the head. Place a piece of paper on

the workpiece. Loosen the headstock bolts

and lower the head until the drill bit or cut-

ter just contacts the paper. Tighten the

headstock bolts.

2. Turn the depth stop leadscrew until the top

of the indicator plate is level with your

desired depth as listed on the scale to the

left or right. The depth stop leadscrew is

controlled by the knurled knob under the

front of the headstock.

3. Begin drilling or milling. Note for precision

depth: set the depth stop shallow of the

desired depth by

⁄16''. Drill the hole and

measure. Finish to depth using the fine

downfeed handwheel with its graduated

dial and use the procedure laid out in

Graduated Dials above.
