7. With the workpiece still attached, insert the

spur center into the headstock spindle (refer

Note: Use the tool rest to support the opposite
end of the workpiece so that the workpiece
and spur center do not separate.

8. Install the live center into the tailstock quill

and tighten the quill lock handle to lock the
quill in position (refer to

Page 26 for addi-

tional instructions).

9. Slide the tailstock toward the workpiece

until the point of the live center touches the
workpiece center mark, then lock the tailstock
in this position.

tailstock handwheel to push the live center
into the workpiece at least a

Do not press the workpiece too firmly with

the tailstock or the bearings will bind and

overheat. Likewise, do not adjust too loosely

or the workpiece will spin off the lathe. Use

good reason and care, otherwise, serious

personal injury could result.

workpiece, cut

same end of the workpiece along the diago-

ners off the workpiece length-wise to make
turning safer and easier.
