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 the

clamp handle (C), move the tool rest base and lock it in

place by pushing down on the handle (C). To adjust the

tool rest (A) for the correct height, loosen the locking

lever (D), move the tool rest (A) up or down and tighten

the locking lever (D).

NOTE: The locking lever (D) Fig. 16 can be positioned

on the left or right side of the tool rest base (B). To repo-

sition the tool rest locking lever (D), unscrew the 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 the 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 an 11/16” wrench (B) Fig. 15 to

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

here on the tailstock.

NOTE: Tighten or loosen both nuts equally.

NOTE: Clamp the headstock and tailstock firmly while

operating the lathe.

ADJUSTING CLAMP ON

TOOL REST

To adjust the tool rest clamping action, use a 11/16”

wrench to loosen or tighten the single nut (A) Fig. 17.
