Test Run Mill/Drill

Before continuing to the Operations section, test
run the mill/drill to verify that it runs properly.

To test run the mill/drill:

1.

Make sure that the factory installed drill
chuck is tight, that there is not a chuck key in
the chuck, and that the eyeshield is firmly
mounted between you and the drill chuck.

Make this step a habit that you perform every
time you start the lathe.

2.

Plug the machine into the power outlet.

3.

Familiarize yourself with the mill/drill controls
shown in

Figures 11 and 12.
