Step 8
Use the 6 x M6x40 bolts, washers, flange
nuts, and nyloc nut to assemble the tool
holder.
Assemble as shown, with the nyloc nut
closest to the M12 threaded hole in the
frame. Align the flats of the nut
horizontally to allow the platen bracket to
slide over it.
Step 8.1 Install one of the locking handles to the
tool holder.
Use an Allen key in the back, while pulling
the lever back to allow you to rotate the
centre easily.
Step 9
Locate the platen, angle brackets, 2 x
10*16mm bolts & washers, 2 x M12*20mm
bolts & washers.
Install angle brackets to platen by hand,
then the assembly to the frame. Lightly nip
up the bolts using a 16mm and 18mm
spanner to hold in place, final adjustment
will come later.
The platen mount holes are offset, the
default position is to have the ‘Long’ end
down (as shown), but it can be reversed to
give more platen above the work rest, and
a shorter ‘Slack’ belt area
.
