Assembly of the column on the lathe
The mill head with column can be moun-
ted on the lathe bed of the D240 and
D280. An adapter is required to fix it. It is
not possible to fix it on the lathe saddle.
The adapter is dimensioned in a way that
the center of the lathe chuck can be rea-
ched with the centre of the milling spindle
(line tailstock - lathe chuck).
“Optional accessory“ on page 22
Due to the manufacturing tolerances of
cast parts and the manufacturing toleran-
ces of two different machines, it is howe-
ver not possible to exactly reach the
centre. The adapter might be too short or
too long.
If required, the adapter has to be milled or
provided with dummy sheets. When using
dummy sheets, the complete surface
needs to be filled.

When aligning the column with the mill head mounted onto it, we recommend to disassemble
the mill head from the column in order to reduce the holding force of the column. Unscrew the
