2.
re-engage the tailstock lock lever to secure
the tailstock to the bed.
Note: The large clamping hex nut underneath
the tailstock will require occasional adjusting
to ensure proper clamping pressure of the
tailstock to the bed. Turn this hex nut in small
increments to fine tune the clamping pres-
sure as needed.
Always operate the lathe with the tailstock
firmly locked to the bed. Otherwise, serious
personal injury may occur by the tailstock
moving during operation and the workpiece
being ejected at high speed.
