Adjusting Gibs
The function of the table gibs is to eliminate
excessive play in the table movement. The gibs
also control how easy it will be to move the tables
up and down.

2.Oil the gibs and table leadscrew if needed (see Page 30).

3.Using a 3mm hex wrench, evenly tighten the gib set screws a small amount, then check the table by moving it up and down. Adjust the set screws as needed until the friction of the table movement is balanced between minimal play and ease of movement.

Note: Tighter gibs reduce play but make it harder to adjust the tables.
