2. Loosen the three tilt locking bolts shown in

figure 31.

3. With one hand helping to support the weight

of the head, slowly rotate the tilting bolt.

Note: Turn the tilting bolt clockwise to move
the head forward and counterclockwise to tilt
it backward.

4. re-tighten the locking bolts to secure the

head in place.

Always lock the head firmly in place after

adjusting the tilt or rotation. If the head

unexpectedly moves during milling opera-

tions, the spinning cutter could bind with

the workpiece and break apart, causing per-

sonal injury or property damage.
