Model G0694 (Mfg. Since 10/09)

Tailstock

the tailstock is equipped with a cam-action
clamping system to secure it to the lathe bed.
When the lever is tightened, a locking plate lifts
up underneath the bed and clamps the tailstock
in place.

To position and lock the tailstock in position:

1. Loosen the lock lever and move the tailstock

to the desired position along the bed
(

figure 12).

2. re-engage the lock lever to secure the

tailstock to the bed.

Note: The hex nut underneath the tailstock
may require occasional tightening to restore
proper clamping pressure and lever position.
When adjusted properly, the lever should be
at the horizontal position when the tailstock is
fully clamped to the bed.

Always operate the lathe with the tailstock

firmly locked to the bed. Otherwise, the

workpiece can be ejected causing serious

personal injury.

2. re-engage the tool rest holder lock lever to

secure the tool rest assembly in position.

Note: The hex nut underneath the tool rest
holder (

Figure 13) may require occasional

tightening to restore proper clamping pres-
sure and lever position. When adjusted prop-
erly, the lever should be at the horizontal
position when the tailstock is fully clamped to
the bed.
