Knockout Rod (A, Fig. 7) - slides into the
headstock to tap the spur center free. Stored in the
hole in the base below the headstock. NOTE:
Always catch the spur center with your other hand
as it falls, to prevent damage to the tip.
Tool Rest (Fig. 8) - attaches to the bed. Used to
steady cutting tool during spindle turning or face
plate operations.
Adjusting the Tool Rest
Position the tool rest as close to the work piece as
possible. It should be 1/8" above the centerline of
the work piece.
Position the tool rest base on the bed by releasing
the lock handle (A, Fig. 8) and sliding onto the
desired position. Tighten handle (A, Fig. 8) to lock.
Adjust the height of the tool rest by loosening handle
(B, Fig. 8) and raising arm (C, Fig. 8).
Should adjustment of the tool rest clamping device
become necessary, turn off the machine, reach
under the bed, and adjust the clamping nut.
NOTE: The lock levers (B, Fig. 2; B, Fig. 8) are
spring loaded. Simply pull up on the lever, rotate it
on the pin, then release.
