spindle height
the Model g3358 has coarse downfeed levers
and a micro-adjustment handwheel. to operate
the downfeed levers, simply pull forward and
down on the lever nearest you. the spindle will
go down until you stop pulling or until it hits the
depth stop.
to operate the micro-adjustment handwheel:
1.
tighten the locking knob located on the cen-
ter of the hub for the downfeed levers (figure
22). this transfers control from the downfeed
levers to the micro-adjustment handwheel.
