3. Adjust the headstock rotation around the col-
umn by moving the headstock to the desired
position.
4. Tighten the hex nuts.
Headstock Tilt
We recommend that an assistant helps with the
headstock tilt process, as the headstock is very
heavy.
To tilt the headstock:
1. Loosen the large hex bolt.
2. While an assistant holds the headstock
steady, turn the locking pin jam nut clockwise
to draw the locking pin out. When the pin has
been drawn out far enough, the head should
be able to tilt.
3. Tilt the head to the desired angle and tighten
the large hex bolt.
4. When returning the headstock to the 0º posi-
tion, tap the locking pin back into place and
tighten the hex nut against the bracket.
5. The small hex bolt and jam nut shown in
Figure 24 are used to control the amount
of resistance when tilting. To increase
resistance, turn the hex bolt clockwise. To
decrease resistance, turn the hex bolt coun-
terclockwise. When resistance adjustments
are complete, tighten the jam nut against the
bracket.
Headstock Swivel
To swivel the headstock:
1. Loosen the two lock handles at the front of
the headstock bracket.
2. Swivel the headstock to the desired point.
3. Tighten the two lock handles.
The headstock can be rotated 360º around the
column, can swivel 360º in place, and can tilt 45º
to the left or the right.
Figure 24 shows the head-
stock adjustment components.
