All mounting bolts should be loose to start with. Due to the design of this fixture the Cradle end of
the block is stationary both in relationship to the machine bed key way and in height. This end is not
adjustable. The adjustable end of the fixture is located on the same machine bed keyway as the cradle.
Once the block is loaded into the fixture it is ready to be aligned for the line boring operation. Up and
down adjustment is accomplished using the leveling screw (6408) inside the adjustable tube. The block
is adjusted in and out by activating the air float on the support, and turning the adjustment screw using
the previously installed ratchet wrench. Once the block is located in and out deactivate the air float and
tighten the support end mounting bolt to lock into place. Tighten the three (3) mounting bolts on the
Cradle end of the fixture now. The alignment of the block should be checked again at this time. Repeat
alignment adjustments as needed.
