Telescoping Nose Measuring and Cutting
1. Move lathe Z axis to –Z over travel position.
2. Measure from face of nose adapter (A) on bar feeder to inside shoulder (B) of moveable
anti-vibration device on lathe. Note measurement (#1).
3. Move lathe Z axis to +Z over travel position toward guide bushing.
4. Measure from face of nose adapter (A) on bar feeder to inside shoulder (B) of moveable
anti-vibration device on lathe. Note measurement (#2).
If lathe has a chuck change position closer to the guide bushing than +Z over
travel, measure to chuck change position.
5. With telescoping nose in hand, find slight grove (D) (Distance from end of telescoping
nose (C) to grove (D) is 45mm / 1.77).
6. Collapse telescoping nose to its shortest dimension, with measurement #1, measure from
point (D) forward and mark the position on the nose (E).
7. Extend telescoping nose to its longest dimension, with measurement #2, measure from
point (D) forward and mark the position (F).
8. Point (F) should be behind point (E) as shown above.
9. Divide the distance between points (E) and (F) by 2 and cut straight through nose at point
(G). Corner break after cut.
