XIAL GAUGING REGULATION
To regulate the axial gauging, proceed as follows:
ATTENTION: disconnect the machine from the mains.
1) set up the coded spacing device by means of the knob (E2) so that the indicator "F" is aligned with
position "d" (fig.12).
2) insert the tip of the gauging calliper (provided) into the rotating clamp (A), push up against the tip
stop (A2) and lock in the calliper by tightening the grub screw (A1) (fig.13). The calliper must be
positioned horizontally as shown in the illustration; if adjustment is necessary use the hex wrench
provided to turn the screw (P) (fig.17, page 13) so that the drum (A4) turns clockwise.
3) take the carriage towards the cutting tool and place the tracer point (F) all the way into the locating
groove (E3) (fig.12).
4) check that the cutting tool enters clearly into the groove (A3) in the gauging calliper. If adjustment is
necessary, loosen screw (E1) and adjust axial gauging by means of the grub screw (E).
5) when gauging is complete, tighten the screw (E1) well.

EPTH SETTING
Depth setting is regulation of the cutting depth (fig.11). Usually depth setting is not necessary during
normal use of the machine. However, if the tracer point is replaced or an optional carriage is used it is
advisable to check the depth settings.
