Longitudinal Power feed System

your mill is equipped with a longitudinal power
feed and limit switch for controlled X-axis table
movement. refer to

figure 27 and the descrip-

tions below to understand the functions of these
devices.

A. Limit Switch: stops powered table move-

ment when either limit stop presses a plunger
on the switch.

b. Limit Stop: activates the limit switch. secure

these devices along the table in the required
positions.

C. Rapid Movement button: When pressed,

moves the table at the maximum speed in the
direction selected.

D. Direction Lever: starts, reverses, and stops

longitudinal table movement.

E. Speed Dial: Controls the speed that the table

moves—turn the dial clockwise to increase
the speed.

f. ON/Off Switch: the master power switch

for the power feed.

G. Power Lamp: Lights when the power feed is

turned

ON.

H. ball Handle: Manually positions the table.

I. Graduated Dial: Marked in 0.001" incre-

ments, each complete revolution is equal to
0.200" of longitudinal table travel.

Stay away from the spinning longitudinal

ball handles when using the power feed to

avoid entanglement and personal injury.

to operate the longitudinal power feed:

1. Loosen the table locks (see figure 28).

2. position the limit stops along the table to

confine the longitudinal distance you want
the table to travel, then tighten the hex bolts
to secure them in place.

3. Move the power feed direction lever to the

center or neutral position, then plug the
power feed power cord into one of the 110V
outlets on the back of the electrical cabinet.

be sure there is enough running clearance

between the table, spindle, vise/clamps, or

jigs before turning the power feed ON. be

aware that all of these objects represent

potential pinch points.
