OPERATIONS
General
DO NOT investigate problems or adjust
the Micro Mill while running. Wait until
the machine is turned off, unplugged
and all working parts have come to a
complete stop before proceeding!
The Model M1036 will perform many types of operations
that are beyond the scope of this manual. Many of these
operations can be dangerous or deadly if performed incor-
rectly.
The instructions in this section are written with the under-
standing that the operator has the necessary knowledge
and skills to operate this machine. If at any time you
are experiencing difficulties performing any operation,
stop using the machine!
If you are an inexperienced operator, we strongly recom-
mend that you read books, trade articles, or seek training
from an experienced milling machine operator before per-
forming any unfamiliar operations. Above all, your safety
should come first!
READ and understand this entire instruc-
tion manual before using this machine.
Serious personal injury may occur if
safety and operational information is not
understood and followed. DO NOT risk
your safety by not reading!
The table can be moved in 2 axes. Each axis is indepen-
dently controlled by a crank handle. Each handle has a
graduated dial to accurately position the workpiece in
relation to the cutting tool. Each axis has the ability to
be locked in position. Locking the axis in place will help
keep workpiece vibration to a minimum.
Longitudinal Feed Control
The longitudinal feed is controlled by a crank handle at
the end of the table, and can be locked in position by the
cap screw located at the front of the table.
Cross Feed Control
The cross feed is controlled by the center crank handle,
and can be locked in position by the cap screw located
under the left side of the mill table.
