tensioned after running the machine for a few hours as the belt will bed into the

1.
Rotate handle and the motor will move in a vertical direction. This will slacken
the belt.

Turning between centers / face plates / chucks
The headstock spindle has a male thread M33 x 3.5. This thread is used to attach
chucks, faceplates and other attachments to the spindle. The spindle has an internal
Morse taper MK2. The Morse taper is used to attach either of the two drive centers
that are supplied with the machine.
To remove a drive center, slide the knock-out rod
from the back of the spindle through the hole that
runs through its center. Give the installed drive
center a sharp knock and the drive center should
come free.
Note: Keep your hand below the center to catch it
as it is released.
To install the face plate
Lock the spindle with the spindle-locking rod
[directly below the spindle thread. Push up to lock
spindle].
Screw the faceplate onto the spindle thread,
ensuring that it is tight.
To remove the faceplate, reverse the above
procedure.
To fit a chuck to the lathe
The lathe is not supplied with a chuck. If you are going to purchase a chuck, ensure
that the internal thread matches the spindle thread [M33 x 3.5]. If you have existing
chucks with American
1” x 8TPI threads , Laguna offers an adaptor that converts the
spindle thread to the 1” x 8TPI thread. It is always advisable to mount the chuck
directly onto the spindle of the lathe as any adaptor can introduce inaccuracies and
your chuck may not run 100% true to the spindle.
Use the spindle lock to stop rotation of the spindle while fitting or removing your
chuck.
Fitting and using the fixed steady
The fixed steady is attached to the guide bars and will not move longitudinally with
the job. The steady is used to support long thin jobs. It has three bearings that
rotate with the job and stop the job from moving off center.
To move the steady to the required position on the lathe bed, loosen the ratchet
handle, slide to the required position and clamp with the ratchet handle
To adjust for the diameter of the job
