INFORMATION
Use the longer fixed centring point from the delivery, so that the centring point can be
pressed out again from the tailstock sleeve.
INFORMATION
When using different tools, it can happen that you cannot start with the quill marking
with scale value 0, because the tool is already ejected in this position by the expulsion
flap. In such cases we recommend to start at a value of 10mm and to convert from here
on.
4.20.4 Cross-adjustment of the tailstock
The cross-adjustment of the tailstock is
used for turning long, thin bodies.
Loosen the adjusting screws in the
front and in the rear of the tailstock.
By alternately loosening and tightening
the two (front and rear) adjusting
screws, the tailstock is moved out of the
central position. The desired cross-ad-
justment can be read off the scale.
Re-tighten the adjusting screws of the
tailstock.

INFORMATION
The tailstock may be cross-adjusted to each direction by approxi - 10mm.
Example:
A 300mm long shaft is to be taper-turned between the centres with an angle of 1°.
Cross-adjustment of the tailstock = 300mm x Tan 1°. The tailstock must be cross-adjusted by
approximately 5.236mm.
CAUTION!
Check clamping of the tailstock and the
sleeve, respectively for the turning jobs
between the centres!
Tighten the securing screw at the end
of the lathe bed in order to prevent the
tailstock from unintentional drawing-
out of the lathe bed.
