12.Loosen the set screws on the spanner nut, and use a spanner wrench or a hammer and a punch to loosen and remove the nut, as shown in Figure 51.
Figure 51. Unseating outboard spanner nut.
13.Repeat Steps 3–7 on the outboard spindle bearing.
14.Reinstall the spanner nut. Only tighten the spanner nut far enough to achieve 0.001"– 0.002" end play on the faceplate.
Tip: Use a dial indicator, as shown in Figure 68 on Page 45, to measure end play on the faceplate.
15.When the correct amount of end play is reached, tighten the spanner nut an addi- tional 1⁄8 turn to preload the bearings.
16.Reinstall the outboard mounting hub adapter, mounting hub, and handwheel in the reverse order.

General Lubrication
An essential part of lubrication maintenance is cleaning the components before lubricating them.
This step is critical because dust and chips build up on lubricated components, which makes them hard to move. Simply adding more grease to built- up grime will not result in smooth moving parts.
Clean the components in this section with mineral spirits and relubricate them.
The following are the main components that need to be lubricated:
•Tailstock
•Inboard Toolrest
•Outboard Toolrest
•Spur and Live Centers
Tailstock
1.Loosen the tailstock lock lever, slide the tailstock off the bed, then turn it over.
2.Clean the shaft on the underside of the tailstock with mineral spirits and a rag.
3.Place a couple drops of light machine oil at each of the locations shown in Figure 52.
