3. Description of the machine:
A hand-guided surface mill is one of the most versatile power tools
in existence and the application areas are almost inexhaustible. It is
suited for milling grooves, cutting tapers, rabbet milling, profile mil-
ling, etc. The many, many possibilities often become apparent only
after working with the mill cutter. The most varied materials such as
wood, synthetics, acryl, MDF, gypsum board, etc. can be processed.
We supply corresponding and sensible accessories for you to be ab-
le to do that right from the start: a parallel inset and a circular limit
stop. A host of possible applications can be carried out with these
two tools. You will find additional information about their usage in the
instructions at hand.
The mill cutter, the rotating tool in your Proxxon surface miller driven
by a powerful universal motor, achieves a speed of 27,500 rpm and
thus enables very precise and clean work. Collet chucks for moun-
ting the mill cutter are supplied in various sizes, allowing you to use
tools with differing shank diameters.
Tool exchange is fast and comfortable thanks to the shaft lock pro-
vided with a stop button.
The foot of the MOF is made from die-cast aluminum for reasons of
stability and precision. In order to ensure optimal antifrictional pro-
perties and the greatest possible planarity, a synthetic plate is atta-
ched to the bottom.
The device itself is guided into both columns. One of these takes on
the additional function of a depth-control stop. The milling depth can
be precisely adjusted with the thumbnut after making a zero setting
