ASSEMbLY & TEST RUN

UNPACKING, CLEANING AND MOUNTING TO WORKbENCH OR STAND

Remove all contents from the packing. Lift the Mini Milling/Drilling Machine using

handling  equipment  or  get  the  help  of  an  assistant  and  place  it  on  level

workbench or stand. Make sure the workbench or the stand is sturdy enough to

support the weight of this Mini Milling/Drilling Machine (110 lbs). Secure the base

to  the  workbench  or  stand  using  the  4  mounting  holes  (A)  Fig.4  and  hex.

bolts/nuts (hardware not included).

The unpainted surfaces of the Mini Milling/Drilling Machine are coated with a rust

preventive  oil  which  needs  to  be  removed  before  starting  assembly.  Use  a

solvent cleaner that will not damage painted surfaces.

INSTALLING HANDWHEEL HANDLES

1. The adjustment handwheels (A & B) Fig.5 come installed to the machine. The

handwheel handles (C & D) Fig.5 must be installed. 

2. Screw in handle bolt with a flat screwdriver.

TEST RUN

Once  the  Mini  Milling/Drilling  Machine  is  secured  to  workbench  or  stand  and

handwheel handles are installed, it is necessary to do a test run to make sure

everything is working as intended:

WARNING!

Do not change the speed range (Low/High speed range lever) while

the  machine  is  running!  If  warning  is  not  respected  you  risk  damaging  the

spindle.

1. Make sure all tools and accessories have been removed from the machine. 

2.  Connect  the  power  cord  to  an  appropriate  120V  wall  outlet.  The  power

indicator light (A) Fig.7 will light up.

3. Place the Low/High speed range lever (A) Fig.6 in the Low position (towards

the left) as shown.

4. Turn the On/Variable Speed dial (B) Fig.7 clockwise to start the machine. Let

the machine run at low speed for approximately 10 minutes. Make sure the

machine is running smoothly without any excessive noises or vibration. If you

hear  any  unusual  noises  or  if  the  machine  vibrates  excessively,  shut  the

machine off immediately. This can be done by turning the On/Variable Speed

dial completely counterclockwise or press the emergency button (C).

5. Increase the speed, let the machine run for another 10 minutes.

6. Increase the speed once again, let the machine run for another 10 minutes.

7. Stop the machine by pressing the emergency stop button. Reset the On/Vari-

able Speed dial by turning it counterclockwise to the off position.

8. Shift the Low/High speed range lever (A) Fig.6 in the High position (towards

the right). Repeat steps 4-7.
