Settings and Adjustments 

Occasionally, it may be necessary to readjust various components in order to maintain optimum performance. 

The adjustments that may be performed follows: 

Cross-Slide Adjustments 

The cross-slide is mounted on a dovetail slide, as shown 

in Fig. 12, Between the sloping surfaces on one side of 

the dovetail, a 'jib strip' is inserted, which may be 

tightened against the dovetail under the influence of 

three adjuster, of 'jib' screws, mounted along its' length. 

The jib screws are to be found on the right-hand side of 

the slide, directly beneath the compound slide handle. In 

time, wear will occur on the mating surfaces resulting in a 

'sloppiness' of action. 

To adjust the jib strip, to account for wear and ensure the 

slide moves evenly and smoothly, proceed as follows: 
1.  Loosen off all lock nuts and screw in the jib screws evenly, i.e., use the same torque for each screw. The 

slide should be held firmly. Test by trying to turn the handle, but do not force it. 

2.  Screw out each jib screw by one quarter of a turn ONLY, and nip up the lock nuts 
3.  Test again, by turning the handle. The movement should be even and smooth along its complete length. 
4.  If the movement is too loose, screw all adjusters 'in' by one eighth of a turn, and re-try. Similarly, if the 

movement is too stiff, screw 'out' the adjusters by one eight of a turn until the correct adjustment is attained. 

5.  Tighten all lock nuts. Take care you do not move the jib screws while doing so. 
6.  When finished, retract the side fully and apply oil to all mating surfaces and the feed screw thread. Then 

crank the slide back to its normal position. 

Cross-Slide Feed Handle 

The cross-slide feed should run smoothly, and the scale must rotate with the handle. 

If any stiffness occurs, it is probably the result of chips or other lodging between the mating surfaces. Undo the 

socket head screw which secures the handle. Remove the handle and pull off the collar with the scale taking 

great care to retain the small spring plate which sits in a groove beneath the collar. 

Clean the assembly and reassemble in reverse order. It will be necessary to hold the spring plate in place with a 

small screwdriver, or similar tool, and pushing down on it to allow the collar to be correctly located on to the 

shaft. 

Compound Slide Adjustments 

Compound slide adjustments are made in the same way as those for the cross-slide. The jib screws are to be 

found on the left-hand side of the slide, I, e. facing the front of the lathe. 

NOTE

: It is important that the cross-slide and compound slide adjustments are correctly carried out and that 

there is "no sloppiness" of action. Any maladjustments will have a serious effect on the quality of your work, as 

they will all be transferred to the tool tip, it is vital that there is as little movement of the tool as possible.
