In a case of severe misalignment, the lower base may need to be realigned.
1. Verify the alignment by mounting the mag base indicator to the face of the chuck. (See the following fi gure.)
2. Rotate the chuck manually. Sweep the side of the steady rest platform at the location shown. The steady
rest platform must be perpendicular to the Z-axis within .001”
3. If alignment is necessary, loosen the 8 (16 on the SL40 series) mounting bolts as shown below to align the
platform.
When the alignment is completed and the lower base has been retightened, recheck the alignment of the
upper base and adjust as needed.
NOTE:
Indicate on the same side of the steady rest platform that the steady rest head will
be mounted to. The indicator, in the illustration, is shown this way for clarity.
