  Cam tightness 

The clamping mechanisms of headstock, tailstock 
and tool rest base are pre-set by the manufacturer, 
and should not require adjustment.  

If one of them does not tighten properly against the 
bed when the locking handle is tightened, adjust it 
as follows. (Figure 11 uses the tailstock as the 
example.) 

 

Figure 11 

1.  Remove stud from end of lathe bed, and slide 

tailstock off. 

2.  Turn tailstock on its side, and tighten lock nut 

(F, Figure 11) to increase cam pressure, or 
loosen the nut to relieve cam pressure. 

3.  Mount tailstock on bed and lock it to verify 

adjustment. Repeat as needed. 

4. Reinstall 

stud. 

8.5

  Tool rest 

A 12-inch tool rest is provided with your lathe. It is 
designed to allow adjustment for height, position on 
the bed, and angle to the work.  

Loosen locking handle on tool rest base (G, Figure 
12) to slide base forward or back, and to angle it to 
the bed. Tighten locking handle firmly before 
operating lathe. 

Loosen handle (H, Figure 12) to raise or lower tool 
rest and angle it to the work. Tighten handle before 
operating lathe.  

 

Figure 12 

8.6

  Tool rest extension 

The extension (J, Figure 13) mounts to the tool rest 
base and offers greater reach for the tool rest when 
turning off the bed using the headstock at an 
angle, as shown. 

Make sure the clamp bushings (K, Figure 13) are 
pulled apart sufficiently to accept the post of the 
extension.

8.7

  Locking handles 

Locking handles, such as H, Figure 12, are 
adjustable. Simply lift out on handle, rotate it on the 
pin, then release it, making sure it seats itself on 
the pin. 

8.8

  Spindle indexing 

Indexing is used to create evenly spaced features 
in a work piece, while keeping the lathe spindle 
locked; for example, when cutting flutes on a 
spindle blank with a hand-held router, while the 
spindle blank is secured between lathe centers. 

The JWL-1440VS lathe provides 36 indexing 
positions. These are identified in the chart in 

section 15.0.

 

 

Figure 14 

1.  Rotate spindle using the handwheel until the 

index pin (L, Figure 14) aligns with the desired 
hole.  

2.  Screw the index pin into the hole until it 

engages the spindle.
