To adjust tool rest:
1. Loosen tool rest base lock lever and move
tool rest assembly to desired position on
lathe bed, as shown in
Figure 31.
Note: To maximize support, the tool rest
base should always be locked on both sides
of the bed. Never pull the tool rest so far back
that it is only secured on one side.
2. Retighten tool rest base lock lever to secure
tool rest assembly in position.
Note: The large clamping lock nut under-
neath the tool rest base will require occa-
sional adjusting to ensure proper clamping
pressure of the tool rest assembly to the bed.
Turn this lock nut in small increments to fine
tune the clamping pressure as needed.
3. Loosen tool rest lock handle (see Figure 31).
4. Position tool rest in desired location.
5. Retighten tool rest lock handle to secure tool
rest in position.
Always operate lathe with tool rest assem-
bly firmly locked in position. Otherwise,
serious personal injury may occur by tool
being pulled from operator's hands.
