3.Insert the end of the dead center into the tail- stock barrel, as shown in Figure 18, until it seats tight enough that it will not rotate when turned by hand. Note—do not worry about pushing the dead center into the barrel too far. The force of the center contacting a mounted workpiece will fully seat the taper when the handwheel is tightened.

4.Tighten the barrel lock to prevent the tail- stock barrel from moving during operation.

Removing Tailstock

Dead Center

To remove the tailstock dead center:

1.Use the barrel handwheel to move the tail- stock barrel all the way back into the tailstock until the handwheel will no longer turn.

2.Pull the dead center out of the tailstock bar- rel.

Adjusting Tailstock Longitude Position

The tailstock on the Model G0516 clamps to the bed with the nut shown in Figure 19. This nut allows the tailstock to be positioned longitudinally along the bed and then locked in place.

2.With your hands, move the tailstock into position along the bed.
