The top of the column has the capacity to swivel
as a turret. This feature allows the reach of the
head to be positioned for over-sized workpieces.

Loosen the 4 hex nuts at the top of the col-
umn.
See Figure 12.
2.
Rotate the head to the desired position and
secure the 4 hex nuts.
Turret Swivel
The ram adjustment allows the head to be posi-
tioned further away or closer to the column, thus,
allowing another dimension in the setup for
machining larger or odd shaped workpieces. The
ram is supported by dovetail ways and is locked
in place by bolts.
1.
Loosen the locking bolts indicated in
Figure 13.
2.
Push or pull the head casting to the desired
position.
3.
Tighten the locking bolts.
If the ram does not move freely, make sure the
two square head bolts are loose and tap on the
face of the head casting with a rubber or wooden
mallet.
