Grizzly H0775 instruction sheet Installation Instructions, Installing the Taper Attachment

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The H0775 Taper Attachment mounts quickly to the back bed way of the G4016 Gear Head Lathe. Accurate tapers of up to 12" can be produced without repositioning the attachment. The H0775 features scales at both ends, reading inches-per- foot and degrees. An angle adjusting screw with fine threads achieves exacting control when set- ting tapers. Another feature is the ability to use it without disengaging the cross slide nut. This will allow it to be functional at any time by simply tightening the deadman.

The H0775 comes carefully packaged and it is coated with import grease to protect it from rust. You will need to clean all pieces thoroughly prior to installation and use. Use a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser, like Grizzly's G7895 Citrus Degreaser. For optimum performance from your machine, make sure you clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlorine-based solvents and gasoline as they may damage painted surfaces should they come in contact. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product.
