Gib Adjustment
After a period of time, movement of the table over
the ways will cause normal wear. To adjust the gibs
for this wear:
1. The horizontal gib adjustment screw (A, Fig. 13)
is found to the right on the table face. The
traverse gib adjustment (8, Fig. 13) screw is
found on the right side of the saddle under the
table.
2. Turn each screw slightly clockwise to tighten.
Turn the table hand wheels and check the
tension.
3. Re-adjust as required.
