prevent motor overheating and burnout, the use of wire sizes for branch circuits or electrical extension cords according to the following table is recommended: 11. Unwrap and clean elevating (knee) crank and install it on its shaft. 12. Install rubber way covers at front and behind table. Conductor Length 13. Install belt guards. 8.6 Lubrication 0 – 50 Ft. 50 – 100 Ft. Over 100 Ft. Do not operate this milling machine before fully lubricating it. Failure to comply may damage machine.
J. Change speed range only when motor is NOT running. C. Spindle Brake (C, Figure 5) – Move in either direction to prevent spindle from turning. Manual Fine Feed Handwheel (J, Figure 5) – Feed reversing knob (K, Figure 5) must be in neutral position. The feed trip lever (I, Figure 5) must be engaged. Note: Manual feed handwheel may be removed when not in use. K. Feed Reversing Knob (K, Figure 5) – located in center of manual feed handwheel. Position of knob depends upon direction of spindle rotation.
11.0 Operations 11.1 Operating precautions Observe the instructions before using this mill. following 1. Verify that spindle brake is released before starting motor. 2. Rotate spindle by hand to facilitate meshing of clutch and gears. 3. Do not use quill power feed at speeds above 2700 RPM. 4. It is recommended that power feed worm gear be disengaged whenever power feed is not required. This will avoid unnecessary wear on worm gear. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Figure 6 11.
2. Position feed reversing knob (K) in the center at neutral position. 9. Set Feed Rate Lever (M) to the feed rate required for the tooling and material used. 3. Engage feed trip lever (I) by pulling away from head assembly. 10. Place Quill Feed Engagement Lever (E) in the Engaged position. 11. Select feed direction by setting the Feed Direction Knob (K) position per Table 2: Spindle Dir. CW CCW Feed Dir. Knob Pos. Down In Up Out Down Out Up In Table 2 Figure 7 12.
11.7 Draw bar operation; changing tooling The drawbar has 7/16”-20 right hand threads and should be tightened with normal pressure using provided wrench. To remove a tool: 1. Lock spindle by turning spindle brake (C, Figure 8) left or right. 2. Use provided wrench to loosen draw bar two or three turns (counterclockwise). 3. If collect does not open immediately, tap the top of draw bar with a soft-faced hammer to loosen collet from taper. 4. Remove tool from collet. 5. Insert new tool into collet.
12.3 Positioning ram 12.2 Head movement: Fore and aft 1. 12.3.1 Sliding ram fore and aft Setting the angle: 1. a. Loosen the three ram adapter locking bolts (A, Figure 10). It is unnecessary to loosen the bolts more than one-half (1/2) turn to allow tilting. Loosen two bolts (A, Figure 11) that lock ram to its ways. Figure 11: Ram positioning 2. Turn lever (B, Figure 11) to move ram on its ways. 3. When desired position is reached, lock bolts (A, Figure 11) securely. Figure 10: Head movement b.
12.5.3 Table gib Loosen table locking handles. The table gib adjustment screw (C, Figure 13) is on the left-hand side, beneath table. Tighten screw until slight drag is felt when turning longitudinal table cranks. 12.6 Table lead screw backlash adjustment Refer to Figure 14. The milling machine table is moved by a lead screw and nut for each machine axis. For proper operation, there must be clearance between lead screw and nut, which results in backlash.
4. Tighten the two nut locking screws. 5. Using one of the longitudinal table cranks, move table to middle position. 6. Set up a dial indicator to check longitudinal backlash. Gently move crank back and forth while watching dial indicator. The backlash should be between 0.003 inch and 0.005 inch. 7. If necessary, repeat the above steps to set backlash.
13.0 Maintenance Before any intervention on machine, disconnect it from electrical supply by pulling out plug or switching off main switch! Failure to comply may cause serious injury. 13.1 Lubrication The milling machine is equipped with a “one-shot” lubrication system. The system lubricates the lead screws and ways. Oil cups provide lubrication for spindle bearings and back gear mechanism. Refer to Table 3 and Figures 15/16 for lubrication requirements and access points.
