To remove faceplate:

2. hold the headstock spindle wheel securely

while turning the faceplate counterclockwise
until it is removed. if the spur center is
installed, it will be removed during this pro-
cess.

4. tighten the quill lock handle.

To remove the live center:

1. loosen the quill lock handle (if locked)

approximately half a turn counterclockwise.

2. turn the quill handwheel counterclockwise

until the tailstock quill bottoms out, causing
the live center to be forced out of the quill.

The tailstock quill lock handle must always

be locked down while the lathe is in use. The

workpiece can be thrown from the lathe if

this step is not observed. Also, the tailstock

quill should not protrude from the tailstock

housing more than 2'' or the quill will not be

supported enough. failure to follow these

warnings may result in personal injury.
