8. once you are confident the settings are cor-
rect, disengage the half nut and turn
OFF
the
spindle.
9. examine the thread dial chart to determine
which numbers (on the thread dial) will
engage the half nut.
Note: There are a total of eight marks on
the thread dial, including the numbers 1-4.
Any mark can be used to cut even numbered
threads. Use the numbered lines, 1, 2, 3, or
4 to cut odd numbered threads. To maintain
accuracy and consistency, engage the half
nut on the same mark on each pass. Failure
to start on the same number each time may
lead to cutting off the thread made in the pre-
vious pass.
10. if cutting metric threads, you will not use the
thread dial. once the half nut is engaged, you
must leave it engaged until the threads are
complete.
NOTICE
DO NOT engage the half nut when spindle
is operating over 200 RpM. Disregarding
this warning may cause damage to the
leadscrew and bearings.
