Removal And Installation Of Lathe Chuck And Faceplate

The  spindle  nose   and  chuck   mounting  is   a  D1-5  Type.   This  is   one   of  the
industry standard mounts and makes it possible to mount numerous styles
and types of chucks to your machine.

The chuck is attached to the spindle nose by 5 cam locks and studs. 

Chuck Removal

1. To remove the lathe chuck, place a piece

of wood under the chuck to protect the
machine bed if the chuck should drop.

2. Rotate each cam on the spindle

counterclockwise until the scribe mark 
on the cam aligns with the mark on the
spindle .

3. If the chuck is stuck onto the spindle, a

light hit with a mallet or dead blow
hammer will knock it loose.

Chuck Installation

1. Place the chuck onto the end of the

spindle and turn the cams clockwise.
Rotate each cam enough to hold the
chuck in place but do not tighten yet.
When all 3 of the cams are engaged, go
back and tighten each one. The desired
tightness is to have the reference mark 
on the cam somewhere between the 3
o'clock and the 9 o'clock positions.

2. If the cam turns all the way around 

but does not tighten, Turn the stud in 
one turn.
