For accurate turning results and to prevent
warping the cast iron bed and ways, the lathe
bedways MUST be leveled from side to side
and from front to back. Re-check the bedways
24 hours after installation, two weeks after
that, and then annually to make sure they
remain level.
Leveling & Mounting
Leveling machinery helps precision components,
such as bedways, remain straight and flat during
the lifespan of the machine. Components on a
machine that is not level may slowly twist due to
the dynamic loads placed on the machine during
operation.
Use metal shims between the lathe base and the
mounting surface when making the bedway level.
For best results, use a precision level that
is at least 12" long and sensitive enough to
show a distinct movement when a 0.003" shim
(approximately the thickness of one sheet of
standard newspaper) is placed under one end of
the level.
See the figure below for an example of a high
precision level.

The base of this machine has holes that
allow it to be mounted to a workbench or
the optional Model SB1035 Lathe Stand. We
strongly recommend that you bolt the lathe to a
workbench or stand to prevent it from moving
during operation. An unexpected movement
could result in an injury or property damage.
The strongest mounting option is a "Through
Mount" (see Figure 18) where holes are drilled
all the way through the workbench, and hex
bolts, washers, and hex nuts are used to secure
the lathe to the workbench.
Another option for mounting is a "Direct Mount"
(see Figure 19) where the machine is simply
secured to the workbench with a lag screw.
