Spindles
The Model G8622 comes with 1
dles like those in Figure 6. The spindles must be
inserted correctly and remain stable in order to
produce quality work. When installing and chang-
ing spindles, make sure the spindle seats snugly
and that there is enough drawbar threaded into
the bottom of the spindle to safely secure it in
place. To install a spindle:
1.
You should not have your machine connect-
ed to a power source at this time. If you do,
UNPLUG it before you begin.
Figure 6. Spindles.
2.
Thread the drawbar approximately 10-15
turns into the bottom of the spindle. The
drawbar has two threaded ends. One of
them will remain exposed.
3.
Make sure the spindle and cartridge are
clean and free of the rust inhibiting protective
grease. Lower the spindle/drawbar into the
spindle cartridge at the top of the table. Line
up the keyway on the spindle with the locat-
ing pin at the top of the spindle cartridge as
illustrated in Figure 7. You will feel the spin-
dle seat itself.

6.
Hold the spindle in place and tighten the
drawbar nut. DO NOT use excessive force.
