Setting Compound Slide
The compound slide is used to cut tapers on parts or to
set the proper infeed angle when threading. It may also
be used to cut specific lengths longitudinally, when set
parallel to the spindle axis.
To set the angular position, do these steps:
1.
Loosen the hex nuts, one on each side of the
compound slide (see
Figure 27
).
2.
Rotate the compound slide to the desired angular
position using the scale.
3.
Tighten the two hex nuts. Be sure to not
overtighten, as you may strip threads or crack or
distort the base casting.
Using the Tool Posts
The four-way tool post (
Figure 28
) is mounted on top of
the compound slide, and allows a maximum of four tools
to be loaded simultaneously.
The four-way tool post allows for quick indexing to new
tools. This is accomplished by rotating the top handle
counterclockwise and then rotating the tool post to the
desired position. Rotate the top handle clockwise to lock
the tool into position.
The universal single tool post holder can hold tool arbors
and odd shaped cutting tools (
Figure 29
).
