1. The carriage clutches are made of a friction type material, designed to slip when slide or carriage
engages a feed stop. The clutches are a spring-loaded arrangement and can not be adjusted for more
pulling power. If clutch slips under a cut, it is a sign of improper tool grinding, dull tool or excessive
feed. The friction clutches have sufficient power to handle all work.
2. When the machine contacts a feed "stop", it is intended for the clutch to slip, To operate clutches as
shown in (Figure 29), raise handle "H" (Figure 29) approx. 20 degress above horizontal, the clutch will
engage, Push down the handle "H" (Figure 29), the clutch will release. When the carriage lead screw is
engaged for threading the carriage feed clutch is mechanically interlocked (can not be engaged). This
is to prevent machine damage. Adjust clutches as shown in (Figure 29).
