Adjusting Tailstock

the tailstock on this lathe is equipped with a
two-piece clamping plate. When the two tailstock
clamp bolts (see figure 31) above the plate are
tightened, the plate lifts up underneath the bed
and secures the tailstock in place. the tailstock
can be positioned anywhere along the lathe bed
to accommodate typical turning operations.
the tailstock can be removed and repositioned
left of the copy attachment for turning opera-
tions. however, doing this will reduce the maxi-
mum workpiece size due to the shorter distance
between centers.
Always operate lathe with tailstock firmly
locked to bed. Otherwise, serious personal
injury may occur by tailstock moving during
operation and workpiece being ejected at
high speed.

Positioning Tailstock Along bed
to position the tailstock along the bed, loosen the
tailstock clamp bolts shown in figure 31, move
the tailstock to the desired position along bed,
then retighten the clamp bolts.
Note: Be careful when loosening clamp bolts, as
over-loosening them can cause clamping plate to
fall, damaging clamping plate or floor.
