Locking device
(excentre cleat)
If the headstock, tailstock, or tool rest support cannot be secured on the lathe bed, the excentre cleat
must be readjusted. Pull the headstock, tailstock, or tool rest support to the end of the lathe bed and
loosely tighten the self-locking nut (see image).
Spindle lock
The spindle lock can be activated by a 90° turn. Th e spindle
has a total of 9 location holes for locking. Activate the
spindle lock to loosen the chuck etc. from the spindle (Fig.
45).
It is essential that the motor is not turned on
during locking of the spindle.
24-position indexing
By turning the knob (1) by 90°, the 24-position indexing
clicks into position. This enables an even graduation in 15°
increments during one turn of the spindle. Using this
graduation, the spindle can be divided 24, 12, 8, 6, 4 and 2
times per rotation (Fig. 46).
You must make sure that the mains plug has been
disconnected. Do not turn the motor on during locking.

Use the 24-position indexing only for graduation, not for loosening a chuck from the spindle.

•
As long as wood turning tools are in contact with the work piece, they have to rest
securely on the tool rest.
•
In order to prevent trapping your fingers during sanding or polishing work, the tool rest
must be removed from the work piece.
