Indexing

Indexing on a lathe is typically used for workpiece
layout and other auxiliary operations that require
equal distances around the workpiece circumfer-
ence, such as clock faces or inlays.
By rotating the spindle handwheel (see Figure
43) to any one of the marks on the degree indica-
tor, the workpiece can be positioned in 7.5° incre-
ments. Once the workpiece is correctly oriented
for the operation, the spindle lock can be rotated
full right to secure the position.

operations.
Always disconnect lathe from power before
using indexing feature. DO NOT start lathe
with spindle lock engaged; otherwise lathe
could be damaged.
