Auto-Downfeed
The auto-downfeed feature uses headstock
gears to control powered downfeed in increments
of 0.10mm, 0.18mm, and 0.26mm per spindle
revolution.
Spindle-return is spring-loaded! Do not dis-
engage auto-downfeed until spindle returns
to top (starting) position or spindle will slam
upward into quill.
To use auto-downfeed:
1.
Make sure spindle is completely stopped.
2.
Ensure work table height is adjusted properly
to allow spindle its full range of movement.
3.
Loosen depth graduated dial collar lock (C).
This will disengage coarse downfeed gradu-
ated dial collar from operation.
4.
Rotate auto-downfeed rate selector knob (B)
clockwise to desired downfeed rate.
5.
Loosen coarse handle lock-down thumb
screw (D) and pull coarse downfeed levers
(A) away from headstock.
6.
Press FORWARD or REVERSE button on
control panel to start spindle rotation and to
engage auto-downfeed spindle travel.
When using auto-downfeed, the spindle
WILL NOT automatically stop or reverse
when it reaches the bottom depth of travel.
To avoid machine damage, manually stop
spindle rotation before this happens.
7.
When desired depth of spindle travel is
reached, stop spindle travel by pressing
STOP button on control panel.
8.
Firmly grip coarse downfeed handles, push
handles toward headstock, and use handles
to return spindle to top position.
