Running the spindle for the rst time:
1. Follow the Start-Up procedure with low gear selected and the motor running
forwards.
2. Run the machine at a low RPM. The machine should run smoothly with minimal
noise and vibration. If not turn off the machine and investigate the cause of the
problem.
3. Slowly increase the speed and run for 10 minutes at a high RPM.
4. Stop the machine and repeat steps 1-3 above in high gear.
5. Stop the machine and repeat steps 1-4 above in reverse.
This procedure will help to bed the motor brushes in and minimise arcing on the
motor commutator. It will also help bed in the taper roller bearings if you tted them.
