ASSEMBLY
• Take the rotation plate assembly and put the toolpost into position underneath the base plate,
simply thread it into the hole provided, and tighten it up tight with the tightening rod provided.
• Make sure it is good and tight, then loosen the lock screw on the shaft collar and lift the shaft
collar up underneath the base plate as far as it will go and then lightly tighten by hand.
• Now remove the toolrest, slide the tailstock back and drop the bowlsaver unit into place.
• Move the rotation plate anticlockwise until the plate lines up with the second thrust tab.
• Fit the large and small blades into position and place the handle clamp on top.
• Insert the two cap screws and tighten by hand, check that the lazy (in this case the small blade)
does not protrude past the plate. Tighten screws firmly.
• Next use your drive spur to determine the correct height, raise the saver until the cutter is on
centre then lower the shaft collar and tighten the locking screw (fine adjustment may be neces
-
sary to suit tailstock ).
• Lastly fit the Morse taper assembly bracket to the rear of the base plate to complete the assem
-
bly. Now you can remove the saver until your bowl is ready to be cored.
•
Double check now all your mounting points,
your toolrest, toolpost , tailstock, and the wing-
nut underneath as well.
