Adjusting Headstock
The Model G0632 headstock can be positioned
anywhere along the lathe bed and swiveled 360°.
To position the headstock along the length of
the lathe bed:
1. DISCONNECT THE LATHE FROM THE
POWER SOURCE!
2. Loosen the headstock lock handle (see
Figure 20).
Figure 20. Headstock lock handle.
3. Slide the headstock to the desired location on
the bed and use the headstock lock handle to
secure the headstock in position.
Note: The large clamping hex nut under-
neath the headstock will require occasional
adjusting to ensure proper clamping pressure
of the headstock to the bed. Turn this hex nut
in small increments to fine tune the clamping
pressure as needed.
8. Verifies the spindle direction switch is in the
center neutral position and the spindle speed
dial is turned all the way counterclockwise
so the spindle does not start turning at high
speed.
9. Ties back loose hair and clothing, and puts
on face shield and respirator. Takes all other
required safety precautions.
10. Starts the lathe and dust collector, adjusts the
spindle direction and lathe speed, and care-
fully begins the turning operation, keeping the
chisel against the tool rest the entire time it is
cutting.
