Tool setup
The cutting angle is correct when the cutting edge
is in line with the center axis of workpiece. Use the
point of the tailstock center as a gauge and shims
under the tool to obtain correct center height.
Use a minimum of two clamping screws to secure
each tool.

1. Reference the feed and thread chart (A, Figure
22).
2. Move levers and knobs (B/C/D/E, Figure 22) to
the appropriate position according to the feed

Adjustments
Adjustments to the lathe,
especially those involving alignments of
bearings, spindle, leadscrew, clutch, etc.,
should only be performed by qualified
personnel, as improper alignments can damage
the machine and/or create a safety hazard.
Turn off main switch and press
emergency stop button before making
adjustments to lathe.
14.1
Chuck jaw reversal
The three jaws on the scroll chuck are reversible,
to hold stock with larger diameters. See Figure 24.
Loosen two screws with the provided hex key,
remove jaw, and rotate it 180-degrees. Re-install
jaw, and tighten each screw in increments until fully
tightened.
