Spindle Preparation
To ensure your safety for the test run, you should
prepare the spindle by making sure it is tight and
by removing the spindle nut and rub collars that
were installed for shipping. A loose spindle or
loose rub collars may fly apart and cause serious
injury.
To prepare the spindle for the test run:
1.
Place a wrench on the spindle flats at the top
of the spindle.
2.
Place a wrench on the drawbar nut located
underneath the table (
Figure 11
) and make
sure the spindle is tight.
