LATHE CHUCK REMOVAL
To remove a chuck:
1.
Place a piece of plywood across the lathe bed and position it just under the chuck. The board should be
at least 8” wide and 10” long.
2.
Locate the 3 socket head cap screws on the back of the back plate and remove 2 of them.
Please see
Figure 8.
3.
Remove the last screw, whilst making sure to support the chuck with one hand. The chuck may come
off as the last screw is removed, so it is important that you are ready to support its weight.
4.
Remove the chuck.
