5.1.2 Swivelling the milling spindle around the
transverse axis (Y axis, Fig. 10)
To swivel around the transverse axis (Y axis), loosen screw 1
(Fig. 10) and swivel the milling spindle. Set the desired angle
on scale 2 and re-tighten screw 1.
5.2 Fitting the collets (Fig. 11)
Please note: Never insert the collet alone into the spindle!
Always engage the collet in the nut first! Always make sure
that the collet and the milling cutter have the matching diam-
eter.

lets. The scope of delivery includes the sizes 6, 8 and 10 mil-
limetres. Please note: In addition to the collets supplied,
other sizes are available in our range of accessories. They
are listed in our device catalogue and on the internet. Please
contact our Customer Service should you have any further

7.1 Adjusting the play of the compound table
guides (Fig. 14)
If, after a time, the compound-type table guide is found to
have too much or too little play, the play can be reset using
the adjusting screws 2 (Fig. 14). For this purpose, loosen
adjustment screw lock nuts 1 and screw in all adjustment
screws evenly until play is eliminated. Retighten lock nuts
afterwards.
7.2 Adjusting the play of the spindle of the com-
