Model G0750G (Mfg. Since 11/12)
The steady rest supports long, small diameter
shafts and can be mounted anywhere along the
length of the bedway.
Familiarize yourself with the steady rest compo-
nents shown in Figure 53 to better understand
the controls.
4. Loosen the clamp knob that secures the two
halves of the steady rest and open the top
portion, as shown in Figure 54.
5. Loosen the jam nuts and set screws so the
finger roller positions can be adjusted.
6. Use the finger adjustment knobs to posi-
tion the bottom two finger rollers against the
workpiece, as shown in Figure 54.
7. Close the steady rest, then use the finger
adjustment knobs to adjust all three finger
rollers so that they just touch the workpiece
without causing deflection.
Note: The finger rollers should properly sup-
port the workpiece along the spindle center-
line while still allowing it to freely rotate.
8. Lock the fingers with the set screws and jam
nuts, then tighten the clamp knob.
Note: To reduce the effects of friction, lubricate
the fingers with way oil during operation.

prism.

where required to properly support the
workpiece, then tighten the hex nut shown in
Figure 53 to secure it in place.
