Tailstock & Banjo Cam Lock Adjustment
The tailstock and banjo cam lock are adjusted at
the factory and should not require further
adjustments. If the cam lock becomes too loose
and cannot secure the banjo/tailstock in place,
adjust the lock nut in small increments until it
provides adequate gripping force.
The cam lock for the tailstock and banjo should
engage with 1/8 of a turn. Do not overtighten the
cam lock, as it can overstress and damage the
locking mechanism.
