wheel (A, Fig. 12) can be used to manually control
the upward or downward direction of the quill.
Remove the Manual Fine
Feed Handwheel when not in use. Failure to comply
may cause serious injury.
Depth Scale and Stop
The Depth Scale and Stop are used during the
drilling operations to set the depth of the drilled
hole. The depth scale is located on the front of
the mill head. The scale consists of a Micrometer
