6.2 Unpacking and cleanup
1. Remove all smaller items from main carton. Do
not discard carton or packing material until
lathe is assembled and running satisfactorily.
2. Inspect contents for shipping damage; if any is
found, report it to your distributor.
3. Compare contents of shipping carton with the
contents list in this manual. Report shortages,
if any, to your distributor. Note: Check lathe
first – some parts may have been pre-installed.
If you did not purchase the leg set and are
mounting the lathe to a bench or table, continue
with section 6.3. If you purchased the leg set, skip
to section 6.4.
6.3 Mounting lathe to bench
1. Unscrew the stud (N, Figure 3) from each end
of the bed.
2. Loosen the locking handles on headstock, tool
rest and tailstock, and slide these items off the
bed. (Refer to section 8.0 for detailed
instructions on adjusting or removing these
items.)
The headstock is heavy.
Use an assistant to help remove.
3. Refer to Figure 1 for mounting hole sizes and
spacing in the lathe bed. The bed has four
5/16”-18UNC threaded holes. Use appropriate
fasteners (bolts and washers) to secure lathe
to bench or table from underneath.
