REMOVING THE LIVE CENTER
Use a soft cloth to protect against the sharp edge when
removing the centers in order to reduce the risk of injury.
To eject the live center, turn tailstock crank counterclock-
wise to retract the quill. As quill retracts, the live center
contacts an internal ejecting pin. When it does, you will
feel the crank get harder to turn. Turning further past this
point loosens the live center for easy removal.

Always check if all screws and levers are securely tight-
ened when adjusting any part of the lathe in order to

locking lever by lifting. Slide tailstock along the bed into
the desired location. Tighten tailstock locking lever by
pressing downward to lock in place.
DO NOT
position edge of tailstock beyond the edge of the
lathe bed in order to reduce the risk of injury.
