Well after weeks of slow progress getting my new mill set up and ready to use I finally got to make some chips today! I am new to running a mill but have a basic understanding of the different functions, limitations of a benchtop mill and safety.... but I must be dense in the skull trying to figure out how to use the Fine Down Feed.
Got the battery insulator removed, and can turn it on and off, run the numbers on the display up and down with the arrow keys,and zero the display out.... but for the life of me I can't seem to figure out how to actually use it as a control for tool positioning. I have loosened the Down Feed Handle Lock (both a little bit and a lot) as instructed in the manual, but the fine down feed never seems to engage.
Am I missing something simple or is there a problem??
