9. Assembly of the Optional Bed Extension
Due to the weight of the bed extension it is recommended that
one person holds the extension while a second threads
the screws.
To eliminate the risk of cross-threading the screws or holes,
thread both screws through at an equal rate. This will ensure the
extension is pulled against the bed squarely.
The end of the lathe bed features 4 holes for mounting the bed extension,
Fig 9.1
. The upper holes are untapped and the lower holes are tapped.
The end of the bed extension features corresponding holes. The upper holes
are tapped and the lower untapped.
Attach the bed extension to the lathe bed by placing two screws, washers
and spring washers through the untapped holes of the lathe bed and screw
into the bed extension. Complete installation by placing the remaining two
screws, washers and spring washers through the bed extension and screwing
into the lathe bed as shown in
Fig 9.2
. Ensure the spring washers are placed
next to the screw heads as shown in
Fig 9.2
.
Do not fully tighten the screws until both bed surfaces are
aligned.
Fit the tailstock to straddle both bed surfaces shown in
Fig 9.3
. Tighten the
tailstock locking lever to bring the two surfaces flush.
Before fully tightening all screws, ensure both beds also run parallel to each
other as shown in
Fig 9.4
.
