the follow rest mounts to the saddle with two cap
screws (see
figure 47). it is used on long, slender
parts to prevent workpiece deflection from cutting
tool pressure during operation. Adjust the follow
rest fingers in the same manner as the those on
the steady rest.
note: To reduce the effects of friction, lubricate
the finger tips with generous anti-sieze lubricant
during operation.

2. rotate the rest to the desired angle, as
indicated by the scale at the base,
then retighten the two hex nuts.
tip: The first time you set the angle of the
compound rest for cutting threads, mark the
location on the cross slide as a quick refer-
ence point. This will allow you to quickly
return the compound rest to that exact angle
the next time you need to cut threads.
