The Portable Lathe mounts to the shaft via
a mounting plate which is drilled and coun-
terbored to match the shaft. The lathe spin-
dle then mounts to the plate on four studs.
The turning bar mounts to arms on the
main body and can be easily adjusted for
reach and turning radius.
Parallelism between the bar and the
spindle is set by adjusting two tool arm
anchors until they measure
equidistant from measuring flats on the
main body. Parallelism with the work piece
is set using jacking screws. Set screws
provide centering.
Typical set-up time is 30 minutes (once the
mounting plate is prepared).
A simple cam and valve arrangement activates the
pneumatic tool feed mechanism. The turning bar may be set at an angle for
cutting tapers up to 2.5 inches/foot (63.5 mm/304.8
mm) on diameter.
