Assembly and setup.
The machine comes mostly assembled. You will have to assemble only the
legs and the tool rest to the bed of the machine.
Note:
It is recommended that the head stock be removed from the bed of the
lathe to ease assembly [Covered later in the manual].
Assembling the legs to the bed of the machine.
Remove the nut that secures the head
stock. Lift the head stock off the bed.
This will reduce the weight of the bed
and make assembly easier.
Lift the legs to the vertical position and
lower the bed onto them. Secure with
the fixing screws provided.
Note:
Each leg must be
supported to ensure that it will
not fall when positioning the bed.
Note:
To ensure safety you will
need 4 people to assemble the
bed to the legs-
one on each leg, and one at
each end of the bed.
Note:
If you have any doubt
about the described
procedure, seek professional
assistance. Do not attempt
any procedure that you feel
is unsafe, or that you do not
have the physical capability
of achieving.
Assemble the head stock
back onto the bed of the lathe and
fit the clamping nut.
