To install a chuck, do these steps:
1.
DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!
2.
Place a piece of plywood across the lathe bed, wipe
clean the spindle nose taper ( Figure 25) and the
mating surface on the chuck with a rag.
3.
If stamped with chuck and spindle timing marks
( Figure 26), align the marks and the camlock studs
in the back of the chuck with the holes on the
spindle face, and slide the chuck onto the spindle.
4. While supporting the weight of the chuck, turn
one cam with the chuck key until the cam line is
between the two V's on the spindle. Do not tighten
at this time.
5.
Rotate the spindle and repeat
Step 4
on the opposite
cam.
6. Rotate the spindle and repeat Step 4 on the rest of
the cams in an alternating manner.
7.
When all cams are snug, return to the first cam and
tighten the cam completely. Repeat this step with
the rest of the cams.
