3.4. Preparation
Mount a milling head with cutting inserts and set the required bevel parameters.
Then, using the rotational speed adjusting dial, set the speed corresponding to the
type of the working material (Table 2).
Material type
Rotational speed
Aluminum, brass, plastics
setting 6
(5850 rpm)
Structural steel of standard quality, quality steel
settings 3
–5
(3100
–4500 rpm)
Table 2.
Recommended rotational speeds
The speed adjusting dial allows for continuous control of the rotational speed in
the range of 1800
–5850 rpm (settings
1
–
6
). The relations between the setting and
speed are: setting
1
– 1800 rpm,
2
– 2400 rpm,
3
– 3100 rpm,
4
– 3800 rpm,
5
–
4500 rpm,
6
– 5850 rpm.
When using structural steel of a standard quality or quality steel, set the speed to
setting
4
and decrease it if intensive sparking occurs during operation.
