A.Limit Switch: Stops powered table move- ment when either limit stop presses a plunger on the switch.

B.Limit Stop: Activates the limit switch. Secure these devices along the table in the required positions.

C.Rapid Movement Button: When pressed, moves the table at the maximum speed in the direction selected.

D.Direction Lever: Starts, reverses, and stops longitudinal table movement.

E.Speed Dial: Controls the speed that the table moves—turn the dial clockwise to increase the speed.

F.ON/OFF Switch: The master power switch for the power feed.

G.Power Lamp: Lights when the power feed is turned ON.

H.Ball Handle: Manually positions the table.

I.Graduated Dial: Marked in 0.001" incre- ments, each complete revolution is equal to 0.200" of longitudinal table travel.

2.Position the limit stops along the table to confine the longitudinal distance you want the table to travel, then tighten the hex bolts to secure them in place.

3.Move the power feed direction lever to the center or neutral position, then plug the power feed power cord into one of the 110V outlets on the back of the electrical cabinet.

Be sure there is enough running clearance between the table, spindle, vise/clamps, or jigs before turning the power feed ON. Be aware that all of these objects represent potential pinch points.
