Headstock
The headstock houses the motor pulley, headstock pulley, bearings, a belt and the spindle.
The headstock spindle accepts centers and accessories with no. 2 Morse taper (#2 MT), plus
threaded faceplates and chucks. The thread size is
1" 8 TPI RH and 1"8 TPI LH.
Mounting a faceplate or chuck
1. Use the locking bar to hold the
headstock spindle in position.
2. Screw the faceplate or chuck onto
the spindle threads. A spindle washer
in-between may be used to make
removal easier. As you tighten the
faceplate or chuck body more force will
need to be applied on the locking bar
to hold the spindle stationery.
!
Warning!
The faceplate or chuck body
must contact the shoulder on
the spindle bearing.
3. Remove the spindle locking bar
before turning on the lathe.
4. Similarly use the bar to dismount.
Using a spur center
1. Mount the spur center to the work
piece as shown and then insert the
spur center and work piece into the
headstock spindle.
!
Warning!
Do not pound work piece into
headstock drive center when
turning between centers or you
may damage the headstock.
2. To remove the center, insert a 10
mm (3/8-inch) diameter wooden dowel
or steel rod through the headstock
spindle hole. While holding the center
so it doesn’t fall, tap it out.
