Adjusting Return
Spring Tension
The spring tension for automatic quill recoil
has been pre-set at the factory. In most cases,
it will never need to be re-adjusted during the
life of the machine. However, if the quill stops
automatically recoiling, the spring may need to
be adjusted for additional tension. If it does need
adjustment, the spring housing is located on the
left side of the headstock.
If return spring should
come loose from the spring
cover and rapidly unwind,
laceration or impact injuries
could occur. Always wear
heavy leather gloves
and safety glasses when
adjusting return spring
tension.
