HOW TO USE:

1. Installation: Secure the machine to a stable and level surface. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for electrical connection and coolant system setup (if applicable).
2. Workpiece Setup: Mount the workpiece securely to the table using a vise or clamps. Ensure proper clearance between the tool and workpiece.
3. Speed Selection: Choose the appropriate spindle speed based on the material and desired cutting rate. Refer to machining charts for recommended speeds.
4. Tooling Setup: Select the appropriate cutting tool (end mill, drill bit, etc.) and install it securely in the spindle using the drawbar and collet.
5. Operation:
• Engage the powerfeed (if desired) to automate table movement along the X-axis.
• Use the handwheels to position the table and quill for the desired cutting depth and starting point.
• Engage the spindle motor and begin machining.
• Adjust the feed rate and depth of cut as needed throughout the process.
6. Machine Maintenance: Regularly clean and lubricate the machine according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Inspect cutting tools for wear and replace them when necessary.
