Model G0766 (Mfd. Since 07/15)
To outboard turn:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Remove tailstock and tool base from machine
by removing hex nuts and clamp washers
located underneath assemblies, then lifting
them from lathe bed.
3. Loosen headstock, then move it all the way to
tail end of lathe bed, as shown in Figure 39.
4. Re-tighten headstock to bed.
When outboard turning, ALWAYS use a
floor-mounted tool rest and keep tool in
contact with rest during all turning opera-
tions. Failure to do so could cause tool to be
pulled out of operator's control and ejected
at high speed.

outboard turning.
