Table Movement
the mill table has three paths of movement (see
Figure 21): 1) longitudinal (X-axis) controlled by
ball handles and the power feed, 2) cross feed
(y-axis) controlled by a ball handle, and 3) vertical
(z-axis) controlled by the knee crank.

In & Out
Vertical (Z-Axis) or

Figure 21. the three paths of the mill table
movement.
the increments of the graduated dials above
the longitudinal and cross feed ball handles are
0.001". the table moves 0.200" with each full
revolution of the ball handles.
the graduated dial above the knee crank is in
increments of 0.001", and the knee will move verti-
cally 0.100" with each full revolution of the crank.
use the table, saddle, and knee locks shown in
Figures 22–23 to secure the table position.
Always keep the table locked in place unless
controlled movement is required for your
operation. unexpected movement of the
workpiece could cause the cutter to bind
with the workpiece and break apart, result-
ing in personal injury and property damage.
