Never leave a chuck key in the chuck when
it is not in use. If the machine is accidental-
ly started, the chuck key can become a pro-
jectile and cause serious personal injury.
Lathe Chuck Removal
ALWAYS place a piece
of plywood over the
bed-ways of the lathe
before removing or
installing a lathe
chuck. This helps by
covering the sharp cor-
ners of the bed, pro-
tecting your hands and
fingers from a pinch
injury.
G4015Z Lathe/Mill
To remove a chuck:
1. Place a piece of plywood across the lathe
bed and position it just under the chuck. The
board should be at least 8" wide and 10"
long.
2. Locate the 3 socket head cap screws on the
back of the back plate and remove 2 of them.
Please see Figure 7.
3. Remove the last screw, while making sure to
support the chuck with one hand. The chuck
may come off as the last screw is removed
so it is important that you are ready to sup-
port its weight.
4. Remove the chuck.
