First, to expedite the ordering of repair partsfor your CINCINNATI Nos. 2ML, 2MI and 3MI Milling Machines; secondly, to” present to maintenance personnel the correct method of ser- vicing these machines. Due to continual improvements in design, it is possible that some information or the appearance of component parts to be found in this catalog may vary slightly from the machine delivered to you. This merely indicates that the mechanism has been improved to better fulfill your requirements. THE CINCINNATI MILLING MACHINE CO.

Second, machine must be carefully leveled and the level maintained by periodic checks. ‘Third, ma~ chine should be anchored firmly to the floor. Foundation Special foundations for Cincinnati Nos. 2ML, 261 and SMI Milling Machines are not required. Any ‘substantial floor, wood or concrete, fairly flat, and sufficiently sturdy to hold machine's weight without excess vibration, will be satisfactory. (The ZML type machine weighs approximately 4000 Ibs. , the 2MI from 4500 to 5000 Ibs. and the 3MI from 6000. to 6300 Ibs.) Select a zone free from extraneous vibration. Lifting Machine ‘The plain and universal machines may be lifted by a crane with a rope or cable sling arcund the over- arm (Figure 17A). Center the overarm and lock in position before lifting. ‘The vertical machines may belifted by a crane with 4 rope or cable sling around the throat (Figuré 171 Before lifting, run saddle forward on knee to bal ance machine weight Wa cable or chain sling 4s used protect machine surfaces with leather or wood blocks.

Now place ad~ ditional shims under base to evenly distribute Weight of machine and recheck for level. Check ‘and adjust machine level periadically.

Prevent formation of permanent stain by periodic cleaning. ” TPettcation No. b=B001SERVICE MANUAL ADJUSTMENTS To Adjust Gibs. (Figure 184) Headless type taper gibs are provided to compen- ‘sate for wear of bearing surfaces between sliding elements at knee and column, saddle and tabie, vertical head and columa.
