Tools you’ll need
You’ll need these tools on hand for assembly. Most people will have these in their shop:
•
Metric Allen keys (we provide)
•
Metric wrenches (we provide) or a metric socket set
• A small flat head screwdriver
•
A red robertson driver or bit (optional if using the wood screws we provide)
We provide a specialized ‘LongMill wrench’ and the needed Allen keys to help complete your assembly and act as
dedicated maintenance tools once your machine is in operation. We don’t recommend you use an impact driver
for assembly except when mounting the machine because you won’t save much time and some assemblies are
prone to damage if they’re overtightened
Missing/broken parts?
Don’t sweat it - your kit has spares and redundancy included. If a part is lost or isn’t going together how you
expect, no worries; just check through the bags and you’ll likely find what you need to continue assembly. Expect a
pile of bolts left over at the end and feel free to set these aside for future machine maintenance.
We supply extra parts so that:
•
If a part doesn’t work properly the extra one can be used instead
• If you lose something (especially small things) you don’t have to search the floor
•
You can more easily upgrade to a larger LongMill model at a later date
•
We reduce the chance of packing too few on our end
If a part is missing completely, check that you’re looking for the right thing and ensure you look through all
the packaging you received with your LongMill. Some parts and add-ons such as the t-tracks ship in a separate
package if they can’t fit into the box for the main kit.
If a part arrives broken and doesn’t have a spare, the LongMill’s warranty covers replacement parts and we’ll even
be happy to help you out if you break it yourself. Just shoot us a message here (

see if there are any other areas of assembly you can continue with in the meantime. We’ll get back to you as soon
as we can.
