Model G0704 (Mfg. Since 08/11)
To complete a typical operation, the operator
does the following:
1. loosens the vertical travel locks, then adjusts
the headstock height above the table to
ensure there is sufficient room to install the
tooling in the spindle and the workpiece on
the table.
2. installs the desired tooling for the job.
3. positions the workpiece as needed for the
operation, then clamps the workpiece using
applicable clamping devices, or a vise that is
already mounted on the table to ensure the
workpiece does not move during the milling/
drilling operation.
4. positions the cutter or drill bit near the
workpiece, then tightens vertical travel locks.
5. selects the appropriate spindle speed for the
milling or drilling operation using the speed
selector knob and variable spindle speed
knob.
6. unlocks the X- and y-axis table locks.
7. Wears safety glasses or a face shield.
8. turns the spindle direction selection knob to
the desired direction.
9. loosens the quill lock lever and uses the quill
feed lever or the fine feed knob to set the cut-
ting tool height according to the workpiece.
10. For milling operations, uses the table
handwheels to move the table so the cutter
removes material evenly from the workpiece.
For drilling operations, uses the quill feed
lever or fine feed knob to lower the drill bit
into the workpiece, then raises the drill bit out
of the workpiece using the same controls.
11. turns the spindle direction knob to the "0"
position to stop the spindle.
