BRIDGEPORT SERIES I MILLING MACHINE
Carefully remove protective crating and skids so that the machine and
parts are not marred, scratched or impaired. In the event of damage in
transit, communicate AT ONCE with our representative and the trans-
portation company making delivery.
WARNING
IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED THAT GASOLINE OR ANY OTHER HIGHLY
INFLAMMABLE CLEANING AGENT BE USED.
Do not move the table, saddle, knee or any movable part until all ways
have been well cleaned and lubricated. Then, by hand, move table,
saddle and knee to limit stop in one direction. Clean and lubricate
exposed ways and then move each unit to the opposite limit stop and
similarly clean and lubricate the exposed ways. Loosen bolts to unlock
the ram, and move it forward and backward to the full length in order to
clean and lubricate.
POSITIONING HEAD UPRIGHT Loosen four locknuts (#157 page 35), pull
stop pin (#133 page 26), out to detent and rotate head to vertical position.
Proceed with alignment of head as described on page 8. Tighten nuts
evenly, using normal pressure. Care should be taken to avoid excessive
pressure since this will cause distortion in the quill. Tighten all nuts to
25 ft. lbs. torque-then repeat to 50 ft. lbs.

PLACING ON SOLID FOUNDATION
The column and base are cast in one piece. When setting machine on a
concrete foundation, it is advisable to use a little grout (thin mortar) to
take care of any unevenness in the concrete as well as to provide a solid
foundation at all points.
When setting machine on a floor that has any surface irregularities, shims
should be used to correct this condition to the greatest extent possible.
See Figure 2 for installation layout.
NOTE
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE MACHINE BE SECURED TO THE
FLOOR TO PREVENT MOVEMENT OR TIPPING DUE TO OFF-CENTER
LOADING.
Before securing machine to floor (i.e. tightening hold down bolts), make
certain that all four corners are making contact with the floor after
machine is leveled. If above condition is not met, it is possible to twist
the column and put a bind into the ways.
HANDLES When crating, the three ball crank handles are sometimes turned
to face the machine. In these cases the handles should be reversed before
operating.

REMOVING TABLE. Remove as follows: ball crank handles, dial holders,
bearing brackets. Lead screw will then turn all the way out so it can be
removed. When this is accomplished, the table can easily be taken off by
sliding it from the saddle. See Figure 9.
REMOVING SADDLE. Follow along the same lines as removing table;
however, it is necessary to remove the entire front bracket assembly.
Next, remove the cross feed nut bracket which is made accessible by
removal of the table. See Figure 9.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR MOUNTING 2-J VARIDRIVE ATTACHMENT TO RAM ADAPTER
Lift the attachment. Insert the four tee bolts into the ram adapter and
position them to match the bolt holes in the attachment.
Slide the attachment onto the bolts, insert the spacers and washers and
secure with the nuts.
Tighten all the nuts with 25 ft. lbs. of torque, and then repeat with
50 ft. lbs.
CAUTION
IMPROPER TIGHTENING OF THESE COULD CAUSE
A CHOPPY QUILL MOVEMENT
LUBRICATION:
The useful life of this attachment will be determined to a large extent by
proper lubrication. Carefully observe the nameplate recommendations ana
avoid substitutions.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
SPEED CHANGE HANDWHEEL (16, Figure 10): DO NOT attempt to change
spindle RPM unless the motor is running. Dial speeds will only be
approximate. Belt wear will cause a slight variation in speeds from what
is indicated on the dial.
When tightening or loosening the drawbar (#14 page 38) it is necessary
to lock the spindle. To accomplish this, use the spindle brake (3) which
is located on the left side of belt housing, turning it either to the right
or left until it binds, then raise the quill feed handle (13).
Drawbar (#14 page 38) has 7/16-20 right hand thread and should be
tightened with normal amount of pressure using wrench furnished with
machine. To loosen collet back off drawbar and if collet does not open
immediately give knob on top of drawbar a slight tap. Spindle has
non-sticking taper and collet should release readily.
14
Figure 10. 2J Milling Attachment
15
SPINDLE BRAKE (3, Figure 10): Brake lever can be moved in either
direction to stop spindle; however, when locking spindle, lever should
be moved to right or left and then raised. When brake is worn out it
has to be replaced. There are no adjustments to be made.
CAUTION
BE CERTAIN THAT THE SPINDLE BRAKE IS RELEASED
BEFORE STARTING THE MOTOR. THIS IS IMPORTANT
AS THE MOTOR CAN BE DAMAGED IF SWITCH IS TURNED
ON WITH BRAKE IN LOCKED POSITION.
HIGH-LOW RANGE SWITCH (1): This is the motor reversing switch. When
the attachment is in direct drive (High Speed) the motor and spindle are
turning in the same direction. When the attachment is in "Back Gear"
(Low Speed) the spindle would run backwards unless the motor
direction is reversed.
The back-gear lever is marked Hi-Lo. This will indicate the proper
switch position. They should be alike or the spindle will run backwards.
In the high speed position (direct drive) the spindle is driven by tapered
clutch teeth. If the clutch is not meshed tightly, clutch rattle will be
heard. This can be avoided by moving the detent plate upward as the
clutches wear. This is also the reason for possible loss of neutral,
requiring the reversal of the detent plate.
CAUTION
DO NOT shift Hi-Lo Lever while motor is running.
POWER FEED TRANSMISSION ENGAGEMENT CRANK (4, Figure 10) : En-
gages power feed worm gear. When lever is in right hand hole, the
power feed worm gear is engaged. To disengage worm gear, pull knob
out and crank handle in clockwise or down direction and move to
opposite position.
NOTE
CRANK CANNOT BE SWUNG AROUND IN COUNTER
CLOCKWISE DIRECTION; HOWEVER, NO DAMAGE
WILL OCCUR IF MOVED IN THIS DIRECTION. TO
ENGAGE THE WORM A CLOCKWISE MOVEMENT IS
REQUIRED.
CAUTION
POWER FEED WORM GEAR MAY BE ENGAGED WHEN
SPINDLE IS ROTATING, HOWEVER, IT SHOULD BE
ENGAGED GENTLY TO AVOID DAMAGE TO WORM
GEAR. THE WORM GEAR MAY BE DISENGAGED AT
ANY TIME. DO NOT USE POWER FEED AT SPEEDS
ABOVE 3000 RPM.
QUILL FEED SELECTOR (5): This crank is used for selecting the
three feeds; .0015", .003" and .006" per revolution. It is shifted by
pulling knob out and turning from one position to the other. Feeds are
stamped on cover below indentation hole. Feed is more readily engaged
when spindle is running.
FEED REVERSE KNOB (7): Position of this knob depends upon direction
of spindle rotation. If boring with right hand cutting tools, pull feed
handle towards operator until clutch becomes engaged.
Neutral position is between forward and reverse position. It is recom-
mended that the handle be left in neutral position when not in use.
17
NOTE
The feed control lever must be engaged in order
to use manual feed controls. The Quill Feed
Handle and Manual Feed Handwheel may be taken
off when not in use.
NOTE
The Feed Control Lever is carefully set at plant
to disengage automatically when quill stop goes
against micrometer adjusting nut or against throw
out pin at top. However, if this should go out of
adjustment, it may easily be brought back by
regulating the socket set screw located at bottom
of tripping rod (item no. 144 page 35).
CAUTION
WHEN ADJUSTING THE SOCKET SET SCREW,
CHECK AUTOMATIC DISENGAGEMENT IN BOTH
DIRECTIONS; THAT IS WITH QUILL-STOP NUT
(#161 PAGE 35) AGAINST THE FEED TRIP LEVER
(#145 PAGE 35) FOR DOWN POSITION, AND
AGAINST REVERSE TRIP BALL LEVER (#183
PAGE 35) FOR THE UP POSITION.
MICROMETER NUT (11): This nut is used for setting of depths. Each
graduation on nut indicates .001" of depth, it reads directly to scale
mounted along side of it. Depths may be obtained by setting micrometer
nut in conjunction with quill stop.
QUILL LOCK (12) : This is a friction quill lock to be used when quill is
in stationary position such as milling operations. It is recommended that
this lock be used whenever quill movement is not desired.
18
POSITION OF RAM: Can be regulated by loosening two Ram Lock Studs
(#119 page 26) on turret (#124 page 26) and pulling the ram (#10 page 26)
in or out to desired position.
CAUTION
CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO LOCK RAM
SECURELY AFTER SETTING.
NOTE
It is recommended that on heavy milling work,
head should be kept as close to column as
possible, where maximum rigidity is obtained.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Use 2, 3, or 4 flute end mills. Eight flute end mills are usually not as
satisfactory for general milling. When using shell mills, face mills or any
other tooling, proper machining practice should be observed.
Power feed can be used for drills up to 3/8" in diameter. Use manual
feed for drills larger than 3/8".
Overload clutch is set at factory to hold up to 200 lbs. down pressure on
quill, which will accommodate drills up to 3/8" diameter in mild tool steel.
CAUTION
THIS CLUTCH SHOULD NOT BE TAMPERED
WITH IN THE FIELD.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
DO NOT TRY TO CHANGE SPEED POSITION
UNTIL MOTOR IS RUNNING. THIS COULD
CAUSE BREAKAGE OF PARTS.
Spindle Speeds are adjusted by turning speed change handwheel (#21 page
36) on the front of the belt housing. There are two ranges shown; 60 to
500 and 500 to 4200.
60 to 500 is obtained through the back-gear drive and is referred to as the
low range. To engage the back-gears, use the lever marked Hi-Neutral-Lo
on the right rear side of the attachment. Move this lever to the "LO"
position and use the low range on the down switch.
When shifting to "LO," DO NOT FORCE THE LEVER if the back gears do not
mesh. Hold the lever so that the gears are clear of one another, rotate the
spindle nose by hand until the gears line up, then put the unit in "LO"
(back gear)
10
500 to 4200 is obtained through direct drive and is the high range. The
same lever and switch as above are used; selecting the "HI" range.
When shifting to "Hi," do not force the lever if the clutch teeth do not
mesh. It is a simple matter to engage the brake and rotate the spindle
nose by hand until the clutches engage.
Wear on the vari-drive belt will cause a slight change in the speeds to that
shown in windows (#22 page 36) on the dial. This can be corrected as
follows. Crank the speed change handwheel (#16, Figure 10) snugly
against the high speed stop. (This will be near the 4200 reading on the
dial.) Use a tachometer to determine the spindle speed, then turn the
pivot stud (#16 page 38), after loosening the jam nut (Item #7 page 38)
until the spindle speed registers 4200 on the tachometer; tighten jam
nut.
Now reposition the speed dial plate to match the tachometer reading. This
is done by loosening the Hex nut (#1 page 36) until the spindle speed
registers 4200 on the tachometer; tighten jam nut.
CAUTION
TRY TO AVOID SHIFTING THE HI-LO LEVER
WHEN THE FEED WORM IS ENGAGED.
DO NOT LOOSEN the 3 hex nuts (#61 page 36) on the upper part of the
Quill Housing (#192 page 34). These are set at the factory and are used
only for alignment.
WARNING
CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO SECURE THE NUTS
(#47 page 36) WHEN THE ATTACHMENT IS IN
POSITION, BEFORE THE MOTOR IS TURNED ON.
REMOVING THE MOTOR (See Figure 11): Run the attachment to the
bottom of either speed range and shut off the motor. This puts the
vari-drive belt in the best position for disassembly.
21
CHANGING VARI-DRIVE BELT (Figure 12)
Complete the above procedures for removing the motor, then remove the
three screws (#1 page 38) (A, Figure 12) and lift out the top bearing cap
(#2 page 38) (B). Looking down inside of the housing, locate and re-
move two socket head cap screws (#17 page 38) and sleeves (#19 page 38)
(C). Next, remove the four screws (#6 page 38) (D) and the screw
(#55 page 38) (E) holding the belt housing (G) to the base (#53 page 38).
Unscrew and remove the two lower screws (#25 page 36) in the speed
changer bracket just below the speed dial (#2 page 36) (F).
NOTE
On Models with plastic face plate (#27 page 36)
remove screws (#23 page 36) first.
22
CHANGING TIMING BELT (Figure 13)
Complete the operation for removing the motor. Then put the Hi-Neutral-
Lo lever (#15, Figure 10) in the Lo position, remove the drawbar
(#14 page 38) (A, Figure 13) and lower the spindle.
Remove screws (#55 page 38) (B) holding the upper and lower housings
(#63 page 38) together, including the two lower screws (C) in speed
changer bracket just below the speed dial.
