SECTION 5: OPERATIONS

DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the machine while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned off, unplugged and all working parts have come to a rest before you do anything! Serious personal injury could occur.

Speed Changes

The motor is mounted on a plate hinged to the column. The motor assembly can be released by turning the handle at the side of the motor. Once the motor tension is released, the belts can be easily re-positioned to change speeds. See the speed chart below for belt settings. A speed chart is also located inside the pulley cover.

Test Run

Turn on the power supply at the main panel. Press the START button. Make sure that your finger is poised on the STOP button, just in case there’s a problem. The mill should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further.

If noises occur that can not be found by visual inspection, feel free to contact our service department for help.

BELT POSITIONING CHART

This diagram shows belts positioned at A and II. As the chart shows, these positions will yield 1720 RPM.
