Tip: Milling with the spindle fully extended, can cause tool chatter. For maximum spindle rigidity, keep the spindle retracted into the headstock as far as possible with the spindle lock lever locked and the fine feed lock knob tightened.

Tip:If the spindle return spring has too much tension and fights the ability of the tap to draw the spindle down, you can reduce the return spring tension (refer to Page 18).
