The tailstock rests on the guide rails and is held in place by the tailstock bracket using a double end screw (M12-1.75 x 65), washer and handle. The tailstock can be adjusted along the length of the guide rails to accommodate various lengths of wood stock. There are two ways to adjust the tail- stock. The handle located under the lathe bed can be loosened, allowing the tailstock to slide up and down the length of the guide rails; or the hand wheel can be loosened, allowing the threaded spindle to move back and forth in the tailstock for fine adjustment. See Figure 5.

Live Center
The live center is installed by inserting the end of the shaft into the tailstock assembly. While hold- ing in place, turn the handwheel on the tailstock clockwise until snug.
