WARNING:
Before operating the drilling/milling machine ensure you are wearing approved safety goggles and gloves to protect you
from swarf and metal particles. If using cutting oil or coolant a face mask may be necessary to avoid breathing any vapour generated.
Ensure that all other safety instructions in section 1 are followed carefully.
4.1.
Setting up for Milling. (Disconnect the machine from the power supply while setting up.) The machine is supplied without milling
attachments. (See section 8 for details.) Contact your local Sealey dealer for a full range of accessories.
4.2.
Engaging vertical fine feed. Prior to milling, activate the fine feed wheel ( see fig.3-5 ) by pushing the drill feed hub inwards toward the
body of the machine so that the two sets of castellations on the hub shaft engage together and lock the movement of the drill feed.
(See fig.4) This action automatically engages the fine feed wheel. Set the depth stop to its maximum so that it does not interfere with
downward movement when setting the height of the milling tool. (See fig.3-19)
4.3.
Mounting the Cutting Tool. If the drill chuck and arbor are currently mounted, remove them by loosening the nut on the arbor bolt by
two turns and giving it a tap with a rubber mallet. (The arbor bolt appears at the top of the spindle shaft and can be accessed by
pulling off the plastic cap (See figs.3-4 and 4-A). Ensure that the drill chuck and arbor are supported as they are removed.
4.3.1. Select the cutting tool for the work in hand and the appropriate arbor or collet.
Wear protective gloves at all times especially when handling the cutter
. Introduce the cutter assembly into the spindle sleeve and
hold it in place whilst the arbor nut and bolt are tightened by hand. Insert the locking pin provided into the hole in the right hand side of
the head adjacent to the spindle (See fig.4-D) to prevent the spindle rotating. Tighten the arbor bolt with a spanner (do not
overtighten). Remove the locking pin and replace the plastic cap.

fig. 2
WARNING! At least two people will be required to move the machine.
Observe good lifting practice.
3.1.
Unpack the product and check that all components and tools are present and
undamaged. If any problem is noted contact your supplier immediately.
3.2
. The machine has been coated with heavy grease to protect it in shipping.
Remove the coating with commercial degreaser, kerosene or similar solvent
before operating. Avoid getting the solvent on rubber parts. After degreasing
coat the machined surfaces with a medium consistency machine oil.
3.3. Mounting the machine.
Locate the machine on a flat, level and strong work
surface. Do not locate in direct sunlight or where heavy dust or moisture
is
present.
3.4
. Before finalising the mounting position consider the full extent of travel of the
longitudinal table leaving clearance for the operators hand. Also consider
access to the column pivot bolt and the tilting of the column to 45
O
in either
direction.
Drill the location holes in accordance with the dimensions shown in fig.2 and
bolt the machine to the bench using four M10 nuts and bolts (Not provided).
