To mount the mill to the workbench:
1.
Determine the best position for the mill on the
workbench.
Note: For the best performance, make
sure the cross feed and the longitudinal
handwheels extend out beyond the edge of
the table surface. This will allow unrestricted
handwheel operation.
2.
Mark your hole locations using the mounting
holes in the base as a guide.
3.
Drill the holes needed in the workbench.
4.
Place a precision level on the mill table and
shim the mill until it is level side-to-side and
front-to-back.
5.
Bolt the mill to the top of the workbench (see
Figure 7).
