INDEXING SYSTEM AT SPINDLE
The indexing pin is fixed on headstock, never use the indexing pin to lock the spindle
or for loosen chucks
In the pulley of the spindle are made 36 borings with numbers 1-36
Indexing is done be the fixed mounted black locking pin on top of headstsock which is adjusted
In the requested boring.
f.e. workpiece with 9 tiwsts or flutings: 36:9= 4 , lock the pin after each 4
th
boring (4,8,12,….)
Safety Advice
Do not switch on spindle motor while the indexing pin is locked!
The indexing pin may not be used as locking of spindle to loosen chucks!
