Revo 18|36 Lathe \ Setup  Placement & Unboxing

6. Remove the tailstock, headstock, and banjo. 

NOTICE!

 The headstock and tailstock can not be removed

if they are locked to the bed. Disengage the lock handle prior to removal. 

NOTICE! Even if you lifted the

lathe out of the box with a lift, please remove everything from the bed. 

7. Clean the grease off all components with WD40, mineral spirits and a shop rag. Use caution with any

thinners or de-greasers as it can damage the paint. Using water will result in rust as the lathe is raw
metal.
