1. Loosen the three black plastic knobs.
2. Fit the job between centers.
3. Adjust the three bearings roughly equal around the circumference of the job
so that they are just touching the wood and clamp in position with the three
black plastic knobs.
4. Rotate the job by hand to ensure that the adjustment of the steady is correct,
ensuring that all three bearings rotate freely.
Fitting the tool rest
The machine is supplied with a tool rest
that is fitted to the copy saddle. To fit the
tool rest, the following parts, [if fitted to
the machine] must be removed:
- Guard.
- Saddle tool holder.
- Rotating steady.
Clamp the tool rest holder to the saddle
with the 2 clamp screws and adjust to
suit the job. The vertical position of the
fence can be adjusted and then clamped
with the ratchet screw. An optional guide-
rail mounted tool rest holder is available
from Laguna tools.
Tailstock
The machine is supplied with a tailstock that can be adjusted along the guide rails of
the lathe. To clamp in the position, tighten the two bolts that are located at the back
with the wrench supplied. Rotating the handle located at the back of the tailstock can
extend or retract the tailstock spindle. The spindle has a female Morse taper MK2 for
fitting various centers and attachments. The spindle can be locked in position by
rotating the clamping screw that is located on the top of the tailstock at the front.
To fit the rotating center, rotate the spindle-adjusting handle so that the spindle is
approximately 50% extended. Clean the internal Morse taper of the tailstock and the
Morse taper of the center. Push the center into the spindle hole and it should lock in
position. To check that it is locked, try to rotate the fixed part of the center by hand.
To remove the center from the tailstock, rotate the spindle-adjusting handle so that
the spindle is retracted. The Morse taper of the center will come up against a dead
stop and if you continue to retract the spindle the center will be freed. Keep your
hand under the center so that it is not allowed to fall and become damaged.
The machine is supplied with two types of rotating centers; one for general-purpose
work and the second one for use when using the rotating steady on the copy saddle.
The lathe is supplied with drill chuck [1/16” to 5/8” drill capacity] that also fits into
the tailstock.
When hand-turning spindles
[non-copy turning], etc., you may find it more
convenient to remove the tailstock and refit on the other side of the copy saddle.
To assemble the rotating steady onto the copy saddle
Note: The rotating center is located on the saddle by two spring pins [dowels]. Care
must be taken to ensure that they line up with the relevant holes while assembling.
