G9729 Combination Lathe/Mill
-17-
The Model G9729 Lathe/Mill comes equipped
with a steady rest and follow rest. These are used
to support smaller stock while turning, drilling or
boring. They are installed at the factory for ship-
ping
purposes and should be removed at this
time. The steady rest has a single clamp bolt that
once removed, allows the clamp shoe to come
out the side (Figure 8) and the main body to be
lifted
off of the lathe bed.
To remove the follow rest, simply remove the two
cap screws at its base. We recommend threading
the screws back into the mounting holes to keep
the holes clear of debris and to make sure they
do not become misplaced.
