Outboard Tool Rest Accessory Removal
The outboard side of the headstock can be used
for faceplate turning when the diameter of the
stock exceeds what can be handled on the
inboard side. The range of diameters suitable for
outboard turning is from 14'' to a maximum of
19''. Outboard turning will require an accessory
faceplate which is available from Grizzly.
Outboard turning should always be done with the
tool rest installed:
1. Fasten the L-shaped bracket to the cabinet
stand with the two (2)
5
⁄16'' - 18 x 1'' bolts
provided and tighten with a 12mm wrench.
2. Attach the tool rest support to the bracket
with the
3
⁄4'' - 10 x 2
1
⁄2'' bolt and nut as
shown in Figure 21 This is hand-tightened
only to allow movement.
3. Insert the threaded end of the tool rest post
into the cast boss and secure with the
3
⁄4''
hex nut. This also is only hand-tightened.
4. The tool rest can now be placed into the
end of the support post and secured with
the setscrew.
To remove accessories such as faceplates, sand-
ing discs or the drum/flap sander from the head-
stock spindle, insert the knockout bar into the
hole in the headstock near the inboard spindle.
Turn the spindle by hand until the bar engages
one of the indexing holes, which will lock the spin-
dle in position. While holding the knockout bar,
rotate the accessory counterclockwise if mounted
inboard, or counterclockwise if mounted on the
outboard side. See Figure 22.
