24-position indexing
To click the 24-position indexing into place use the locking
pin (Fig. 26). This enables an even graduation in 15° in-
crements during one turn of the spindle. Using this gradu-
ation, the spindle can be divided 24, 12, 8, 6, 4 and 2 times
per rotation. The indexing is used to make reeded profiles on
pillars, spinning wheel hubs, watch dials, evenly drillings and
milling on boxes, plates, bowls or vases and much more. Use
the locking pin with magnetic holder to fix the spindle. There
is a readout scale on the headstock´s hand wheel and, if the
pulley´s cover is open on the outside of the #1 pulley.
So the locking pin with magnetic holder you need is always
on hand, fix the pin to the lathe.
You must make sure that the mains plug has been dis-
connected. Do not turn the motor on during locking.
Use the 24-position indexing only for graduation, not for loo-
sening a chuck from the spindle.

is used to turn on the lathe du-
ring woodturning.
•
The toggle switch is for forward and reverse operation.
It is usually in the forward position. Reverse operation is
rarely used, e.g. during repeated sanding.

ration.
