Test Run

Complete this process once you have familiarized yourself with all instructions in this manual and you have made sure the machine is completely lubricated as described in Lubrication onon page 27Pon page 27. The purpose of the test run is to make sure the motor is working properly before proceeding.

To begin the test run procedure, do these steps:

1.Make sure there are no obstructions around or underneath the spindle.

2.Set the mill to the slowest RPM. See Page on page 23 for adjusting RPM.

3.Put on safety glasses, and make sure any bystanders are wearing safety glasses and are out of the way.

4.Plug the machine into the power outlet and push the ON/OFF switch to turn the mill ON, but make sure that your hand stays over the switch. The mill should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises.

•If you hear squealing or grinding noises, turn the machine OFF immediately. Wait for the mill to stop moving, unplug the machine, and correct any problems before further operation.

•If the source of an unusual noise or vibration is not readily apparent, contact our technical support for help at (360) 734-3482 or contact us online at tech-support@shopfox.biz.
