Threading

The following subsections describe how to use the threading controls and charts to set up the lathe for a threading operation. If you are unfamil- iar with how to cut threads on a lathe, we strongly recommend that you read books, review industry trade magazines, or get formal training before attempting any threading projects.

Headstock Threading Controls

The threading chart on the headstock face dis- plays the settings for inch threading; a metric thread chart is provided on Page 70.

Using the controls on the lathe, follow the exam- ple below to understand how to set up the lathe for a threading operation.
