THE SCROLL
: The
cylindrical part which
has a gear cut on one
side and a flat surface
thread on the opposite
side which moves the
base jaws in and out in
unison.
TAPERLOCK ADAPTOR:
Made with various threaded sizes
so it can be made to fit any lathe
spindle. If you change lathes, all
you need to do is buy a new adap-
tor, not a whole new chuck. The
taperlock design eliminates the pos-
sibility of the adaptor loosening or
separating from the chuck body in
normal use or when reversing the
lathe.
NOT SEEN:
SNAP RING
: The clip which holds the scroll in place. Snap ring pliers are
required to remove the scroll if necessary (Anderton #6 external snap ring
pliers)
4 MM T-HANDLE HEX KEY
: Used to install or remove the adaptor
and/or the Top Jaws.
