TAILSTOCK LIVE CENTER

The tailstock live center (A) Fig. 14, supplied with your

lathe, is equipped with a No. 2 Morse Taper shank.

NOTE: Before inserting the live center, clean both the

shank and the inside of the tailstock to remove any

grease or debris. To remove the live center (A) from the

tailstock spindle (B), use the knockout bar (C) Fig. 14

(supplied) through the hole (D) in the opposite end of the

spindle.

TOOL REST

The tool rest (A) and tool rest base (B) are shown in Fig.

16. To position the tool rest on the lathe bed, lift up

clamp handle (C), move the tool rest base to the desired

position and lock in place by pushing down on handle

(C). To adjust the tool rest (A) for the correct height,

loosen locking lever (D), move tool rest (A) up or down

and tighten locking lever (D). NOTE: Locking lever (D)

Fig. 16 can be positioned on the left or right side of the

tool rest base (B). To reposition the tool rest locking lever

(D), unscrew lever counterclockwise. A threaded hole is

provided in the left side of tool rest base (B) to accept

the locking lever (D) if desired. NOTE: Clamp tool rest

firmly while operating the lathe.

ADJUSTING CLAMPS ON THE

HEADSTOCK AND TAILSTOCK

The headstock and tailstock can be moved along the

lathe bed. A downward push on the handle (A) Fig. 15

(tailstock shown) locks the mechanism, while an upward

movement of the handle releases the securing action.

The clamps are pre-set at the factory. However, should

either need adjusting, use a 11/16” wrench (B) Fig. 15 to

slightly loosen or tighten the two nuts (C) Fig. 15 shown

here on the tailstock. NOTE: Be certain that both nuts are

tightened, or loosened, equally. NOTE: Clamp headstock

and tailstock firmly while operating the lathe.
