6. Tighten the two housing nuts. Do not overtighten the two nuts. If
the nuts are tightened too much, the movement of the spindle and feed
handles will become sluggish.
ANGULAR “PLAY OF THE SPINDLE (FIG. 18)
Move the spindle to the lowest downward position and hold in place. Try
to make the spindle revolve around its axis while also moving it with a
side motion. If there is too much “play”, proceed as follows:
1. Loosen the outer nut (Fig. 18 - 1) about 1/8 inch.
2. Without obstructing the upward and downward motion of the spindle,
turn the screw (Fig. 18 - 2) clockwise to eliminate the “play.”
NOTE: A little bit of “play” is normal.
3. Tighten the lock nut (Fig. 18 - 1).
