Gap Removal
1. Remove the four gap-bed cap screws, shown
in Figure 140.
The gap insert directly under the spindle (see
Figure 139) can be removed to create additional
space for turning large diameter parts.
The gap insert was installed, then ground flush
with the bed at the factory to ensure a precision
fit and alignment. Therefore, if the gap insert is
removed, it may be difficult to re-install with the
same degree of accuracy.
