** I FOUND THE PROBLEM, OPERATOR ERROR, THE QUILL WASNT ALL THE WAY UP........duh!
I have a new PM950 mill and I am finally getting around to get it ready to use. I tried to put a R8 drill chuck in the spindle but by the time I had it threaded in, I wasn’t able to put a wrench on the drawbar. I had to use a socket and a ratchet as the end of the drawbar disappeared below the surface.
Is this correct?
Here is how far the chuck is drawn up...
When I use the socket, here is how far it is drawn up into the spindle.
