• Tailstock Handwheel (A, Figure 2) – Turn clockwise to

move tailstock spindle forward. Turn counterclockwise

to retract tailstock spindle.

spindle. Release to adjust with handwheel.

• Tailstock Lock (C, Figure 1) – Locks tailstock in position

on the bed. Release to move the tailstock assembly

closer to or farther from the headstock.

• The tailstock spindle is hollow. This can be useful for

inserting a long bit to drill a hole in the center of a

workpiece on the face plate.

pull out the upper piece of the switch and store in a safe

the inside of the headstock spindle before mounting the spur

center. Failure to do so may result in separation of the two and

possible injury or tool damage.
