Mounting the Head 

1. With

 

the aid of a second person, carefully lift 

the 

head

 onto the 

column top

 (Figure 3). 

 The head assembly is heavy!  

To avoid injury and/or damage to equipment, lift 
the head onto the column only with additional 
assistance! 

2.  Rotate head assembly until sides of the 

belt 

cover 

(E) are parallel with the sides of the 

base

 

(D, Fig. 1). 

3. Tighten 

two 

set screws

 (A, Fig. 3) with a 5mm 

wrench until they are snug. 

Downfeed Handles 

Referring to Figure 3: 

Install three 

downfeed-handles

 (B) into the 

downfeed-hub

 (C) as shown.  

Installing the Chuck and Arbor 

1.  Adjust the position of the table to approximately 

seven inches below the 

spindle assembly

 

(D, Fig. 3) and lock in place. 

Referring to Figure 4: 

2. Thoroughly clean 

spindle

 (A), 

arbor

 (C), and 

chuck

 (D). 

Important:

 These three pieces must be free of 

any rust protection, or lubricant. If they are not 
clean and dry, the arbor and chuck will fail to 
seat in the spindle. 

3. Place 

arbor

 (C) into the 

chuck

 (D). 

4.  Open chuck all the way to completely retract 

the chuck jaws. 

5.  Place arbor and chuck assembly into the 

spindle

 (A). 

6.  Turn the arbor and chuck assembly until the 

tang

 (B) on the 

arbor

 (C) engages the slot at 

the end of the spindle. 

7.  Place a scrap board against the bottom of the 

chuck, and firmly tap the board two or three 
times with a mallet or hammer, to seat the 
arbor.
