UNPACKING & PREPARING FOR USE UNPACKING & PREPARING FOR USE
On receipt, carefully unpack the machine and inspect to ensure that no damage was suffered in transit
and all parts are accounted for. Should any damage be apparent, or parts missing, please contact
customer service immediately.
With assistance, considering the weight of the machine, lift and place on workbench. Remove all
traces of metal protectant with good quality solvent, and lightly oil all machined surfaces.
Saddle, cross-slide, and compound slide adjustments are all factory set to ensure smooth movement in
both directions. If, however, the adjustments have been upset during transit, indicated by stiff or erratic
movement, refer to Settings & Adjustments on Page 17 for the methods of adjustment.
All hex keys and spanners necessary to carry out various adjustments are supplied, as well as a chuck
key for the 3-jaw chuck and a spare fuse. The fuse holder is located on the main control panel.

MOUNTING THE MACHINE

The machine should be mounted on a workbench of
sufficient height so that you do not need to bend
your back to perform normal operations.
Ensure the location is adequately lit and that you
will not be working in your own shadow.
We strongly recommend that the machine is bolted
firmly to a workbench using the tapped holes used to
secure the feet to the machine. This is to provide
added stability and additional safety. To do this, first
drill three 8mm clearance holes in a workbench, at
the dimensions shown in the diagram to the right.
Use appropriate-length M6-1 bolts/screws with 6mm
flat washers to secure the machine to the
workbench. After mounting the machine on a
workbench, the drill/mill head should be mounted to
the machine. Do not forget to insert the power cord
into the socket in the rear of the headstock.
