ASSEMBLY OF THE STAND
1. Assemble the front & rear legs,
supports and top plates using the
coachbolts, nuts and washers as
shown in Fig 1.
2. Assemble the stand loosely before
tightening all the fixings together.
3. With the help of an assistant,
position the lathe on the top
plates and align the holes in the
lathe bed with the holes in the
stand top plate. Secure with the
bolts & nuts supplied and tighten
them evenly.
ASSEMBLY OF FACEPLATE, TAILSTOCK & LEADSCREW
1. If faceplate turning is required,
screw the faceplate (24) onto the
headstock spindle (42) while using
the open wrench provided to
prevent the spindle from turning.
Tighten the faceplate as shown in
Fig 2.
2. If spur turning is required, insert the
headstock spur (25) into the
tapered hole in the headstock
spindle as shown in Fig 3a.
The spur can later easily be
removed by driving it away from the
headstock using a drift rod through the head spindle.
3. Insert the tail-stock spindle assembly (43/44/45) into the tail-stock as shown
in Fig 3b, the taper of the shaft gripping it in place.
