The coarse downfeed handles, which feature a
spring return hub for quick spindle movement, are
used to perform drilling. Spindle travel is shown
on the depth scale and is limited by the depth
stop.
The fine downfeed handwheel is used for precise
drilling operations and Z-axis control when mill-
ing. The fine downfeed handwheel graduated
dial measures spindle movement in 0.001" incre-
ments, with one full revolution equaling 0.10" of
spindle travel. The graduated dial can be rotated
to zero for a relative starting point.
