Using a “T” wrench, rotate the feed knob assembly to feel the resistance of
the tool slide all the way down the full length of the slide. If the tool appears
loose in some areas, the tool slide needs adjustment.
With a “T” wrench, loosen the slide rail retaining cap screws, (leave these
screws somewhat snug so that the rail doesn’t flop around) on the adjusting
set screw side to allow adjustment of the slide rail with the adjusting set
screws. Where ever the tool feels loose, tighten gently the corresponding set
screws, and at the same time, while tightening the set screws, feel the tool
slide by rotating the feed knob to ensure that the resistance is constant all
along the full length of the rails.
When the slide feels snug, but not to tight all the way down the full travel,
tighten the slide rail retaining cap screws.
Recheck and feel the tool slide to make sure it does not bind anywhere on
the full length of the travel. If it does bind in some area, loosen about a 1/16
of a turn or less the corresponding adjusting set screw(s), and with a soft
hammer or a piece of wood, tap gently the tool slide from the opposite side to
settle the rail against the adjusting set screw. This should free the slide.
If the slide is loose, loosen the corresponding slide rail retaining cap screw(s)
(leaving it (them) somewhat snug) and tighten very gently the corresponding
set screw(s). When the slide feels right, retighten the retaining cap screw(s).
When doing any slide adjustment, rotate the feed knob at the same time and
feel the resistance of the slide at all time this procedure will ensure a fast and
perfect adjustment every time.
