A fairly flat foundation and proper installation will provide the machine long-term high accuracy, so
supplying a good solid foundation of proper thickness is important. (Generally, a thickness of 300mm (12")
is considered to be enough.) The machine has six adjustable feet on the corners of the pedestal base, used
for leveling the machine. Place the pads under the feet of pedestal. To adjust, loosen the set screw and
raise or lower the foot with a pin wrench so that all six feet rest firmly on the floor. When the adjustment is
done, tighten set screws.

The CTL-618e TOOLROOM LATHE is shipped completely wired and
assembled, Turn Cam Switch "A" (Figure 2) to the "OFF" position, then check
motor voltage. Loosen screws "B" (Figure 2), and open the switch case cover,
connect the wires from the power source to the terminals (R.S.T), and ground
connection is made at the "G" (Figure 3) which is the electric switch case.
Pull out Spindle locking Pin "E" (Figure 4), push "G" (Figure 4) in forward
position. The spindle should rotate counterclockwise when viewed from the
tailstock end of the machine. If the spindle does not turn in the correct direction,
turn Cam Switch "A" (Figure 2) to "OFF" position. Disconnect electric power
source, and interchanges any two leads until the turning direction is correct.
When the spindle is rotation correctly, secure switch case cover, turn Cam
Switch "A" (Figure 2) to "ON" position.

Proper lubrication supplied carefully , will maintain the life and performance of the machine for a long period.
Therefore, lubricate the machine with a high quality lubricant, and check periodically to assure that the
lubricant in the oil sight gage is filled to the proper level.
1. CARRIAGE LUBRICATION
Fill with Mobil Vactra Oil No.2 or equivalent in oil reservoir. Lift plunger on reservoir "R" (Figure 5) hold briefly
and release to keep bed ways lubricated.
