Just bought my first mill. A Grizzly G3617. I am trying to figure out how to hold the spindle in place while I tighten or loosen the drawbar. I can hold the spindle by hand, but that doesnt seem like the right way to do it. The mill does not have a spindle lock on it. Anyone know how to lock the spindle in place? Thanks, Scott...  |

| I have a HM52 mill (Australian) I made a spanner that goes around the end of the spindle that has 2 resseses cut out for the int30 sqaure blocks to lock into.I think yours is R8.There is some info on the internet that use a plunger to go into the bottom of the spindle pulley to lock it.You could always modify a car filter wrench the type that has the sheet metal strap,shorten it and glue some rubber to the inside for now.Davo |
