Assembling the milling machine

Fixing to the PD400 lathe

Caution!
Under no circumstances insert the mains plug before
completion of the assembly work, as the machine could
be switched on accidentally. Risk of injury!
1. Fix the lathe on a secure foundation.
2. Attach the fixing block 1 (Fig. 5) with screws 2 to the
lathe 3.
3. Loosen screw 3 (Fig. 6) and insert column 1.
4. Tighten screw 3 to clamp the column.
5. Fix the milling table 3 (Fig. 7) with the screws 2 and
the square nuts 1 to the support of the lathe.
Square nuts are provided for two screws; these are
slid into the slot of the lathe support. There are
threaded holes in the support itself for the other two
screws.

Fitting the milling machine to the
KT 400 compound table
Note:
Safe and precise working is only possible when the ma-
chine has been properly fixed to a stable working service.
1. Fix the compound table to the working service with
4 M6 screws (not included in the scope of supply)
(Fig. 8).
2. Insert the column into the 45 mm hole and clamp
securely with the screws 1.
Note:
If it is difficult to insert the column 2 into the hole 3, this
can be opened out a little with the screw 4. This should
be screwed in by a small amount only but be sure to
loosen the screws 1 first. When the column is subse-
quently clamped, the screw 4 must of course be un-
screwed once more!

Working with the milling attachment

Caution!
Unplug from the mains before changing the tool or carry-
ing out any adjustment work on the milling machine!
Caution!
Please note that, for all its advantages for use in ma-
chine tools, the capacitor motor used here can become
very warm due to its design. This is not an indication
that the motor is defective and can occur when the mo-
tor has been running for an extended period on no load
or with only a very small load. Please try to avoid these
operating conditions and do not let your milling machine
run excessively on no load.
Caution!
Please note:
There is always a potential risk of injury from all mo-
torised or manually driven parts of machine tools!
Therefore please maintain sufficient distance at all
times and never reach in to moving tools!
Never hold tools with the hand only but always clamp
properly!
