depth stop

the depth stop is used to limit the range of down-
ward movement by the drill bit or cutter. Maximum
depth is 5".
to calibrate the depth stop:
1. install the cutting tool, then make sure the
spindle is drawn all the way up into the head.
to prevent damaging the workpiece, place a
piece of paper on the workpiece. loosen the
headstock locking nuts and lower the head
until the drill bit or cutter just contacts the
paper. tighten the headstock locking nuts.
(refer to figure 24 for the location of the
headstock locking nuts).
2. turn the knurled knob of the depth stop
leadscrew until the top of the indicator plate is
level with your desired depth as listed on the
scale to the left or right (figure 25).
