Follow Rest
The follow rest mounts to the saddle with two
cap screws (see Figure 51). It is used on long,
slender parts to prevent workpiece deflection from
the pressure of the cutting tool during operation.
Adjust the follow rest fingers in the same manner
as the those on the steady rest.
Note: To reduce the effects of friction, lubricate
the fingers with way oil during operation.
