procedure
1. Drawbar removed? Speed control at lowest setting
(counter-clockwise)?
2. Test the spindle motor by setting the motor switch,
Figure 2-7, to Forward and Reverse in turn. Viewed

stop.

pushed in, it stays in until twisted rmly clockwise.

mum, about 3000 rpm. Check that the lower end of
the spindle remains cool or slightly warm to the touch.

tions.
