Figure 15 Slideway Adjustment
SLIDEWAY ADJUSTMENT
Periodically check the “snugness” of the Tool Holders in the Slideways. When fully extended from the Lathe,
there should be no movement of the Tool Holders when pulled up or pushed down. Unsatisfactory surface finish
on rotors is often an indication that the Slideways need adjustment.
Carefully study Figure 15 to understand the dynamics of adjusting the tension of the Slideways on the Tool
Holders.
1) Loosen the eight smaller “B” screws by approximately 1/16 turn.
2) Loosen the four larger “A” screws by approximately 1/16 turn.
3) Tighten the eight “B” screws evenly to obtain the “snug” feel of the Tool Holders. Check the operation
and feel by manually moving the Tool Holders in and out with the handwheel.
4) Tighten the four “A” screws to lock the setting of the slideways.
