SPINDLE TILTING
The machine should come to a complete stop before
the spindle is tilted, and the insert with the oval slot
should be placed into the table. Make sure the cutter
does not touch the table or the fence when in tilted
position.
1. Loosen the knob (C) on the front handwheel (D).
See Figure 29.
2. Loosen the two locking handles (E) on both sides
of the machine.
3. Turn the handwheel (D) to the required tilting angle
shown on the indicator (F).
4. Tighten the knob (C) and locking handles (E).
FENCE ADJUSTMENT
1. To adjust the aluminum fence halves endwise,
loosen the two fence locking levers (C-Figure 17), slide
the fence halves to the required positions and tighten
locking levers.
CAUTION: The aluminum fence halves
should be adjusted inward so that the
opening at the spindle is just enough to
clear the cutter.
2. The right fence half (infeed) can be moved inde-
pendently, in or out, depending on the type of shaping
operation that is being performed. See Figure 30. To
move the right fence half in or out, loosen the locking
knob (A) and turn the adjusting knob (B). Precise
movements are possible by using the dial indicator
beneath the knob. When finished, re-tighten locking
knob (A).
3. The complete fence assembly can be rapidly
positioned on the table by loosening two locking
handles (C) and moving the fence assembly to de-
sired position by rotating the handwheel (D). Use the
dial indicator for more precise measurement. Re-
tighten the handles (C) when finished.
