installation
Before installing the rotary 
table, make sure that the spindle 
centerline is properly aligned or 
"trammed" with the mill table. Also, 
remove any burrs or scratches from 
the mating surfaces of the rotary 
and mill table by "stoning" them, 
then thoroughly wipe them clean 
and dry (refer to the Surface Care 
section on Page 16 for detailed 
instructions).
Horizontal installation
The horizontal base has slots (see 
Figure 3) that accept keys for 
quick alignment with the mill table. 
Because of the many variations in 
mill table T-slots, these keys are not 
provided with the rotary table. If 
you choose to use keys for alignment 
when installing the rotary table 
horizontally, you will have to 
machine them to fit the rotary table 
and your mill table.

base key slots and mounting slots

Mounting
Slots
Key Slots
To mount the rotary table 
horizontally:
1.
  DISCONNECT MILL FROM 
POWER!
2.  Position the rotary table 
horizontally on the mill table so 
that the mounting slots shown 
in Figure 3 are aligned with the 
mill table center T-slot.
You MUST properly secure the 
rotary table to the mill table to 
prevent unexpected movement 
of the rotary table and workpiece 
during operation, which could 
result in personal injury or 
workpiece damage.
5.  Perform the Horizontal 
Installation Alignment 
procedure as instructed on 
Page 9.
Make sure the rotary 
table handwheel is free of 
obstructions. Depending on your 
setup, the rotary table may need 
to be blocked up or mounted so 
the handle is hanging over the 
edge of the mill table.
3.  Attach the rotary table to the 
mill table with the clamping 
hardware, but leave the 
fasteners loose for now.
4.  Place the machinist's square
along the front edge of the mill 
table and the machined foot 
of the rotary table, square the 
rotary table to the mill table, 
then fully tighten the clamping 
fasteners.
