LOCKING SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION

IMPORTANT: 

When the machine is not in use, the switch should be locked in the 

“OFF”

position to prevent unauthorized

use, using a padlock (C) Fig. 13 with a 3/16" diameter shackle.

In the event of a power outage, always lock switch in “OFF” position until the main power is restored.

TABLE ADJUSTMENTS

1.

To raise or lower the table (A) Fig. 14, loosen the table clamp handle (B) and rotate the raising/lowering handle (C). After
the table is at the desired height, tighten the table clamp handle (B).

NOTE:

Always raise (rather than lower) the table to the final position to allow the gears to mesh and prevent slippage.

2.

To rotate the table (A) Fig. 14 on the table bracket, loosen the lock handle (D).

3.

To tilt the table right or left, pull out and remove the table alignment pin (B) Fig. 15.

NOTE: 

If the pin (B) Fig. 15 is difficult to remove, turn the nut (A) clockwise to move the pin out of the casting.

4.

The table alignment pin (A) Fig. 16 is shown removed. Loosen the table locking bolt (B) Fig. 16, tilt table to the desired
angle and tighten the bolt (B). When you return the table to the level position, replace the table alignment pin (A) to
automatically position the table surface 90 degrees to the spindle.

5.

A tilt scale (A) and pointer (B) Fig. 17 are provided on the table bracket casting to indicate the degree of tilt.
