Running-in
The MI 409 milling machine is put through a initial run-in procedure at the
factory before the machine is packaged for shipment.
1.
Once you have your mill setup, Smithy recommends that the spindle
motor be run for about 5 minutes at each of the spindle speeds
starting with the slowest speed.
2.
Operate the powerfeed motor for the X and Y power feeds for 5
minutes in each of the 6 speeds.
3.
When the machine has set for some period of thin without being run or
if the machine is in a cold environment, it is recommended to run the
spindle for about 5 minutes at a medium speed before beginning and
cutting operations.
