stud is mounted in the top of the holder and has
a knurled thumb wheel. rotating the thumb wheel
raises or lowers the tool holder so the cutting tool
can be indexed on the workpiece. the handle on
the tool post is rotated to lock and unlock the tool
holder, which rests in the dovetail ways. the tool
post may be rotated by loosening the nut at the
top of the tool post.
