Finally got my O Mill running. Found running clockwise (looking from front of Mill) was best.
The arbor is 1" in diameter, and the cutters I have all have a keyway, but the arbor does not. Friction alone stops the cutter from slipping. Seems a bit odd to me! I can't tighten the arbor nut up sufficiently to stop slippage. I don't have a spanner on the arbor proper, only on the nut (at the end). Have I missed something?
