Ball Handles

The ball handles for the X-axis leadscrew have spring-loaded, keyed center bushings, as shown in Figure 8. This allows them to disengage from the leadscrew when using the power feed, avoiding an entanglement hazard.

To install the ball handles:

1. Remove the hex nuts from each end of the

X-axis leadscrew.

2. Identify the two ball handles with the spring-loaded center bushings (see

Figure 8).

3. For each ball handle, position it so that the protruding part of the center bushing is facing toward the table, align the keyway with the leadscrew key, then slide it onto the

X-axis leadscrew.

4. Secure the ball handles with the hex nuts removed in Step 1.

Note: Tighten the hex nuts just until they are snug. Overtightening could increase the wear of the moving parts.
