I’m just starting the restoration of a #2 mill. I want to remove an arbor that has been in the machine for several years. Can anyone tell me how to lock the spindle on a machine that’s not operational yet?
Get a 1 X 1 piece of CRS in the spindle nose face key slot(s) and rest its end on a pad on the table. You'll need to take the face keys out to do this so you can bolt the CRS in if you like
