(c) Check to see that the tools are correctly set and the work-piece is set firmly.
(d) Be sure the speed is not set too fast.
(e) Be sure everything is ready before use.
(2) After Operation
(a) Turn off the electric switch.
(b) Turn down the tools.
(c) Clean the machine and coat it with lubricant.
(d) Cover the machine with cloth to keep out the dust.
(3) Adjustment of Head
(a) To raise and lower the head, loosen the two heavy duty head lock nuts shown in Fig.l. Use the
left side head handle to raise and lower the head on its rack and pinion mechanism. When the
desired height is reached, tighten the bolts to avoid vibration.
(b) Head may be rotated 360∘by loosening the same bolts mentioned above. Adjust the head to
the desired angle, then fix the heavy duty head lock-nuts. It is tighten the same time to fix the
head if drilling & milling too much.
(4) Preparing for Drilling (see fig. 2)(Except addition power feed system).
Turn of the knob make loose the taper body of worm gear and spring base. Then we decide
spindle stroke setting the positive depth stop gauge for drilling blind hole or free state for pass
hole.

QUILL RETURN SPRING ADJUSTMENT:
Spring tension for return of spindle, after hole drilling, has been pre-set at the factory. No fur-
ther adjustment should be attempted unless absolutely necessary. Adjustment will probably be
required if a multiple drilling or tapping head is used. If adjustment is necessary, loosen lock screw
while holding. Do not allow the housing to turn in your hand, or spring will unwind. Turn entire
housing assembly clockwise the number of turns necessary to cause the quill to return to its up
position. (NOTE. The flat of the spring housing pilot is lined up with the spring loading hole on the
body of the spring housing.) Reset lockscrew make sure point of screw mates to flat on the housing
journal.
7. ADJUSTING TABLE SLACK AND COMPENSATE FOR WEAR (see Fig. 3)
(1) Your machine is equipped with Jib strip adjustment to compensate for wear and excess slack
on cross and longitudinal travel.
(2) Clockwise rotation the job strip bolt with a big screw for excess slack otherwise a little counter
clockwise if too tight.
(3) Adjust the jib strip bolt until feel a slight drag when shifting the table.

- 11 -
8. CLAMPING, TABLE BASE, AND MACHINE BASE (see Fig. 3)
(1) When milling longitudinal feed, it is advisable to lock the cross feed table travel to insure the
accuracy of your work. To do this, tighten the small leaf screw located on the right side of the
table base.
(2) To tighten the longitudinal feed travel of the table for cross feed milling, tighten the two small
leaf screw on the front of the table base
(3) Adjustable travel stops are provided on the front of the table for control of cross travel and the
desired milling length.
9. SPEED CHANGING AND ADJUST BELT (Step See Fig. 4)
(1) Turn power off.
(2) Open belt cover by releasing side latches step see(a)(b)(c).
(3) Loosen motor mount leaf screw.
(4) Push motor in order to loosen belts(head side of motor mount is set fixed, two motor's ear side
with motor screw to tighten or loosen of belts.)
(5) Loosen two screws for base of speed change inter pulley that also adjust the location of base for
speed change inter pulley.
(6) Select the suitable R.P.M. from speed charts of table 1.
Then place the belts on the desired pulley steps.
(7) Tighten two screws of base for speed change pulley
and the bolt of motor mount lock.
(8) Cover the belt cover before turnning power on.

10. TO CHANGE TOOLS
(1) Removing Face Mill or Drill Chuck Arbor
Loosen the arbor bolt (see fig. 4) at the top of the spindle shaft approximately 2 turns with a
wrench. Rap the top of the arbor bolt with a mallet. After taper has been broken loose, holding
chuck arbor on hand and turn detach the arbor bolt with the other hand.
(2) To Install Face Mill or Cutter Arbor
Insert cutter and cutter arbor into the taper of spindle. Tighten arbor bolt detach securely, but do
not over-tighten.
(3) Removing Taper Drills
(a) Turn down the arbor bolt and insert the taper drill into the spindle shaft.
(b) Turn the rapid down handle rod down until the oblong hole in the rack sleeve appears.
Line up this hole with the hole in the spindle. Insert key punch key through holes and strike
lightly with a mallet. This will force the taper drill out.
