Settings and adjustments
Your ZX25M/ZX30M Mill has been factory set and adjusted, however, during its life time you
may find occasion whereby the mill needs adjusting to maintain its accuracy and optimum
performance. These adjustments can be made as follows:-
Worktable and Traverse feed adjustment.
The worktable and the traverse feed are both mounted over dovetail sections. In order to
maintain the 'tightness' of the fit; between the sloping surface of the component and its mat-
ing surface a gybe strip has been inserted. (At the rear of the worktable, and to the right
hand side of the traverse feed)
To adjust the gybe strips, use a large flat bladed screwdriver and screw the gybe strip bolts
clockwise to compensate for any slackness or anti-clockwise to loosen the movement.
Check, using the feed handles, that worktable and the traverse feed moves smoothly, If not,
repeat the adjustments until the movement is smooth and tight over the whole of the travel.
