SECTION 3: ASSEMBLY

Overview

NOTICE

All assembly and adjustment instructions assume that your lathe is axially aligned, i.e., the headstock and tailstock are cen- tered on the same axis. Consult your lathe owner’s manual for proper procedure.

Most of your Copy Attachment has been assem- bled at the factory. However, you will need to attach the handle to the carriage handwheel, mount the longitudinal-feed handwheel and cut- ting tool and mount the main assembly to your lathe.

The illustration below indicates the features and controls included with the Model G2891. Assembly, adjustments, operation and mainte- nance procedures will all be more successful after you develop an understanding of the copy attachment’s construction and functions.

Some metal parts may have sharp edges (called “flashing”) on them after they are formed. Please examine the edges of all parts before handling them. Failure to do so could result in skin laceration.
