Adjusting the Indexing Pins


If it appears that the pins are out of alignment, you can straighten them out by drilling a test board
and realigning a Pin in one of the drilled holes. Follow the testing procedure to confirm they are out
of alignment.

TESTING PROCEDURE:

1. Use a scrap of at least two feet in length and cut a set of holes with the front Drop Gauge down.

2. Slide the board over so that either the left or right Index Pin can enter one of the holes that you just
drilled.

3. Cycle the machine, insuring that the Index Pin is firmly in the hole before bringing the head down.

4. When drilling, the bits should re-enter the holes without chipping out the edges or kicking the
board out. If either of these things happen then the Index Pins need to be re-calibrated.

SOLUTION STEPS:

1. To adjust an Index Pin loosen the two bolts holding the Index Pin bracket in place.
