1. Safety Precautions
● Only when the machine is fixed firmly, may you use it.
● Before operation, users must check and make sure the power source is right for this
machine, especially it must be properly connected with single-phase power source.
● This machine isn't equipped with illuminant apparatus. Users must mount it
themselves. The mounted illuminator must not generate too strong light, flash light
or shadow.
● Don't use this machine in dangerous environment, and don't put it in damp or wet
places. The work place should be dry.
● Always remove chuck key before starting.
● Wear proper apparel. No loose clothing, ties, gloves, bracelets or other jewellery
which will get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Use
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
● Before operation, ensure that the drive box and the mill/drill head are covered
properly.
● Always use safety glasses. Common eyeglasses have no impact resistant lenses and
they are not safety glasses.

● Always keep alternate cutting tools or measuring tools in place and keep work area
clean. Cluttered areas and tables invite accidents.
● Non-operators must keep a safe distance from the running machine.
● While a long work piece extends out from the back hole of spindle, please adopt a
series of safety measures to guard against the dangers coming from the vibration and
rotation of the work piece.
● Do not process a work piece exceeds the designed range.
● Always secure your work pieces, use vices and clamps-hands are no substitute.
● Always use correct tools. They are safer, do a better job and provide a superior
finish. And maintain tools to keep them sharp and clean. Follow instructions
wherever applicable.
● Only when the machine is stopped, can you change cutting tools or maintain it.
● Don't leave the machine running un-attended. Turn power off and then only leave
the machine when it comes to a complete standstill.
● SERVICE
The machine should be disconnected from the power supply before any work is
carried out. Before any further use of the machine, all parts and functions should be
checked to determine that they will operate properly.
Check for alignment and binding of moving parts, breakage or cracks in parts and
castings or any condition that may effect the correct operation of the machine. A
damaged guard or part should be repaired or replaced.

5. Driving System
Driving system consists of the main driving system (lathe spindle gearshift, mill/drill
spindle gearshift) and the feed driving system (longitudinal feed of carriage table). The
driving route is showed in Fig.1.
5.1 Main Driving System
● Lathe spindle gearshift (List 1)
It is driven to lathe spindle through v-belt by way of electric motor. By changing the
v-belts positions according to list 1, 6 possible turning operation speeds are
available.
● Mill/drill spindle gearshift (List 2 Fig .1)
It is driven to lathe spindle through V-belt by way of the electric motor. Push into
clutch 11 to engage taper gear 13 on lathe spindle with taper gear 14 on driving
shaft. The motion is driven to mill/drill spindle through V-belt 16. By changing the
v-belts positions according to list 2, 12 possible mill/drill operation speeds are
available.

5.2 Feed Driving System and Thread Cutting
Feed motion, at first, is driven to shaftⅡby way of gear 32 on spindle. Second, it is
driven to shaft Ⅲ by way of triplicate gear 32 on shaftⅡ, and last, it is driven to
longitudinal lead screw through changing gear. This is to enable the carriage table
for longitudinal feed. (See Fig 1)
● When duplicate gear 33 on shaft Ⅲ move to right, positionⅠon the label, the
longitudinal feed of the carriage table is 0.075 mm/r.(See list 3)
● When duplicate gear 33 on shaft Ⅲ move to left, position Ⅱ on the label, the
longitudinal feed reaches 0.15mm/r.
● If you change the change gear as per list 3, 14 kinds of metric threads and 20 kinds
inch threads are available.

6. Electric System
The power source required for the machine is A. C. 220V/50Hz(or 110V/60Hz).
The wires in the mains lead are colored in accordance with the following order:
Green & Yellow ------------------------------------------------------------ Earth wire
Blue --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Neutral wire
Bro ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Live wire
Consult Fig.2 to make clear the wiring of the machine and wire the source plug as
below:
Connect Green & Yellow colored wires to plug terminal marked with a letter "E"
or Earth symbol " " or colored Green or Green & Yellow.

Connect Brown colored wires to plug terminal marked letter “L” or colored Red.
Connect Blue colored wires to plug terminal marked letter “N” or colored Black

8. Installation and Adjustment

It asks the users to provide a rigid and strong platform for this machine. There are
four lifting pins on two sides of machine body. When lifting this machine to your
platform, level it and fix it tightly.

9. Operation and Usage

All operating parts are showed in Fig.4. When packing the machine, carriage table
and mill/drill spindles are locked tightly, before usage, except the mill/drill head
stock, you are asked to loosen the lock handles and clean the antiseptic coat with
non-corrosion kerosene. Then oil this machine as per the lubrication requirements.

10. Maintenance
10.1 Check frequently to make sure that the v-belt is properly tightened. If it is loose,
re-tighten it for operation.
● The mill/drill head v-belts are tightened by use of the tension wheel. Slacken the nut
and slide the tension wheel along the groove until correct tension is achieved.
● The lathe head v-belts are tightened by adjustment of the positions of the two adjust
nuts along the dog bolt.

10.2. Oil this machine in accordance with lubrication requirements. The lathe head stock
should be regularly cleared and renewed its oil up to the center line of the oil
indicator. Take care of the exposed friction surfaces and lubricate them quite often.
10.3. During operation if the machine has any trouble or abnormal noise or any other
abnormal situation, stop operating immediately and check to repair it.
