Figure 33. Model G0632 indexing configuration.
Indexing on a lathe is typically used for workpiece
layout and other auxiliary operations that require
equal distances around the workpiece circumfer-
ence, such as clock faces or inlays.
By inserting the indexing pin into one of the three
outer indexes of the Model G0632 spindle hous-
ing and engaging one of the eight inner indexes
in the spindle, the workpiece can be positioned to
one of 24 equal points (see
Figure 33).
Always disconnect the lathe from power
before using the indexing feature of this
lathe. Do NOT start the lathe with the index-
ing pin inserted into the spindle; otherwise
property damage and personal injury could
result.
