Installing/Removing
Tailstock center
the included live center installs into the tailstock
quill with an Mt#2 tapered fit.
To install the center into the tailstock quill:
1. Loosen the quill lock handle and rotate the
tailstock handwheel until the quill extends
about 1" (see
figure 18).
2. Make sure the mating surfaces of the center
and quill are free of debris and oily substanc-
es before inserting the center.
3. insert the tapered end of the center into the
tailstock quill, as shown in
figure 18.
4. Make sure the center is securely installed
by attempting to pull it out by hand—a prop-
erly installed center will not easily pull out by
hand.
5. secure the quill in place by re-tightening the
quill lock handle.
To remove the center from the tailstock quill:
1. Loosen the quill lock handle.
2. hold the center with a rag or a glove so the
center does not fall to the floor when it is
pushed free of the tailstock.
3. rotate the tailstock handwheel counterclock-
wise—the tailstock quill will retract back into
the quill, causing the center to be released
from the quill.
