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.

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)

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.
