MILLING MACHINE INSTRUCTIONS
All the equipment furnished with the Milling Machine is packed in
the carton in the miller crate. Be sure everything has been removed
before the carton is destroyed.
MOUNTING MOTOR
The Atlas Milling Machine requires a 112 HP, 1725 RPM motor,
preferably a capacitor or repulsion-induction type. (For a 112-inch
diameter motor shaft, motor pulley No. 9-428 is required.)

Dovetail cutters, end mills and keyway cutters are mounted in a

End mills use bushings on cutters with shanks less than '/2" dlame+er.
To remove the shank cutter adapter, loosen and remove the draw-in

The spiral end mill is adapted to the spindle by a shell end mill
