Thread: Elliott Omnimill vertical head lubrication
06/05/2023 10:10:56

Good morning,

I do not have a manual for my Omnimill 00, can someone please tell me what the recommended lube for the vertical head shaft bearings is?

Thank you for your time

Thread: Elliott Omni 00 bed adjustment
09/02/2023 22:39:16

First, thanks for all the replies. Very helpful.

I spent a bit of time setting up a couple of tests today tramming from the vertical spindle. The bed is high on the back by .005" not the front as I reported, sorry about that.

I also trammed the column from the vertical spindle and saw no movement at all on the indicator with several full up and full down cycles.

Tomorrow I will try adjusting the tapered gibs on the y axis as suggested in the replies

Thanks again

Wade

Hello,

I have an Elliott Omni 00 and am not sure how to adjust the bed in the Y direction. The front of the bed is five thousands higher than the back. I see adjustment possibilities but I do not have a manual. Any advice welcome.

Regards,

Wade

Hello,

I am a marine engineer that works in the oil industry mostly offshore. I have an Elliot 00 mill and a Craftsman 12" lathe and various other tools and welders. I tinker with old cars and build tools for working on them.
