Replacing the faceplate
The lathe is supplied with a screwed 80 mm
faceplate. Before the faceplate can be un-
screwed from the spindle thread, release
the two Allen screws at the side using an Al-
len key. During reverse operation the Allen
screws are used here as a stop rod. To fix
the spindle use the knock out bar. Then the
face plate is loosened with the Face plate
wrench. Face plate wrench.

Tailstock
Never loosen the quill on the tailstock or the tailstock itself
while the work piece is rotating. The tailstock is equipped
with a MT2 quill. The quill guide is equipped with a quick-re-
lease lever which must always be fixed using the handwheel
after securing the side grain. Next to the quick-release lever,
there is a lock lever which is used for adjusting the quill. Plea-
se ask your specialist dealer if needed.
On the back of the tailstock, there is the clamping lever for
fixing the tailstock on the lathe bed. It can be removed by
loosening the snap ring and relocated to the front of the
tailstock.
Regularly check proper clamping of the tailstock on the lathe bed. The tailstock guarantees an exact alignment between live
center and spur center. This guarantees low vibration woodturning and is the best prerequisite for exact drilling with a tailstock.
In order to move the tailstock on the lathe bed, loosen the clamping lever, move the tailstock to the required position and se-
cure it there again.
To move the quill in or out, loosen the quill‘s quick-release lever and turn the handwheel. Live centers and tools with a No. 2
Morse taper (MT2) can be used with the quill. In order to attach the tool, insert it quickly and tightly by hand into the quill sup-
port. Do not hit it into the socket. In order to prevent the tool falling out, hold on to it from the outside.
Caution:
The center point can cause injuries.
Replacing the live centers
The live center can be ejected by turning the headstock handwheel counter-clockwise. Alternatively, it can also be pushed out
from the rear with the knock out bar.

Danger!
While faceplate turning remove the live center, to avoid injury of the right arm.
