6.2Unpacking and cleanup

1.Remove all smaller items from main carton. Do not discard carton or packing material until lathe is assembled and running satisfactorily.

2.Inspect contents for shipping damage; if any is found, report it to your distributor.

3.Compare contents of shipping carton with the contents list in this manual. Report shortages, if any, to your distributor. Note: Check lathe first – some parts may have been pre-installed.

If you did not purchase the leg set and are mounting the lathe to a bench or table, continue with section 6.3. If you purchased the leg set, skip to section 6.4.

6.3Mounting lathe to bench

1.Unscrew the stud (N, Figure 3) from each end of the bed.

2.Loosen the locking handles on headstock, tool rest and tailstock, and slide these items off the bed. (Refer to section 8.0 for detailed instructions on adjusting or removing these items.)

The headstock is heavy. Use an assistant to help remove.

3.Refer to Figure 1 for mounting hole sizes and spacing in the lathe bed. The bed has four 5/16”-18UNC threaded holes. Use appropriate fasteners (bolts and washers) to secure lathe to bench or table from underneath.
