4.4 Toolrest
To move the Toolslide along the bed, loosen the Toolslide Clamp Handle, move the slide to the desired position, and
tighten the clamp handle.
Adjust the Toolrest close to the work piece. Exact positioning may be varied to suit the turner. Revolve the stock by hand
to make sure it clears the rest before starting the lathe.
At intervals, stop the lathe and readjust the Toolrest.
WARNING! Lathe tools and chisels should remain on the Toolrest whenever the tool is in contact
with the work piece. Remove the Toolrest when sanding or polishing so fingers do not get pinched.
4.5 Tailstock
To move the Tailstock along the bed, release the Cam Lock Lever,
slide the Tailstock to the desired position and tighten the Lever to lock into
place.
To move the Tailstock quill in or out, loosen the Quill Lock and turn
the Handwheel. Lock the quill in place with the Quill Lock.
The Tailstock Quill accepts centers and accessories with no. 2 Morse taper
(#2 MT). To install a taper, insert the accessory firmly by hand. Do not
pound the taper into the hole.
To remove a taper, either wind the quill into the tailstock until the taper is
ejected or insert the operating bar through the Tailstock Quill hole. While
holding the taper so it does not fall, and then tap it out.
The Tailstock Quill is hollow, allowing you to bore holes through turnings if
a hollow center is used.
WARNING! Never loosen the Tailstock Quill or Tailstock while the work piece is turning.
