ASSEMBLY
INSTALL THE SPUR CENTER
Insert the spur center into the headstock spindle.
The spur center (A) has a No. 2 Morse Taper
shank, that matches the taper on the inside of the
headstock spindle for a secure, friction fit. FIG. 5.
NOTE:
If replacing the spur center, or purchasing
new centers, make sure that the item is machined
with a No. 2 Morse Taper shank.
THE KNOCKOUT BAR
The knockout bar (B) is used to remove the spur
center from the headstock spindle.
Insert the knockout bar into the spindle hole at
opposite side from spur center. The knockout bar
is then used to hit the back end of the spur center
to release it from the spindle. Carefully hold the
spur center as it is knocked out of the spindle, so
that it does not fly out and get damaged, or injure
your hand. FIG. 6.
INSTALL THE LIVE CENTER
Insert the live center (C) into the tailstock spindle.
This center also has a No. 2 Morse Taper shank.
FIG. 7.
To remove live center from the tailstock spindle,
loosen the tailstock’s spindle locking lever and
rotate the hand wheel counterclockwise to retract
spindle into the body of the tailstock. The live
center will automatically be pushed out of the
spindle. Carefully hold the live center as it is
pushed out of the spindle, so that it does not fall
out and get damaged, or injure your hand.
The knockout bar (B) can also be used to release
the live center from the tailstock. FIG. 8.
THE MACHINE MUST NOT BE PLUGGED IN AND THE POWER SWITCH
MUST BE IN THE 'OFF' POSITION UNTIL ASSEMBLY IS COMPLETE.
