16-Speed Gearhead Lathe

Lifting & Moving

This machine and its

parts are heavy! Serious personal injury may occur if safe moving methods are not used. To reduce the

risk of a lifting or dropping

injury, ask others for help

and use power lifting equipment.

Do not attempt to lift or move this lathe without using the proper lifting equipment or the necessary assistance from other people. Each piece of lifting equipment must be rated for at least 5000 lbs. to support dynamic loads that may be applied while lifting. Refer to the Things You'll Need subsection on Page 17 for details.

To lift and move the lathe:

1.Remove the shipping crate top and sides, then remove the small components from the shipping pallet.

2.Use a forklift to move the lathe to its prepared location while it is still attached to the shipping pallet.

3.To prepare for lifting the lathe, balance the load by loosening the tailstock lock lever (see Figure 16) and moving the tailstock to the end of the bedway. Be sure to lock it in place.

5.Position a 12" long 2x6 board under each end of the bed, as illustrated in Figure 18, then wrap the lifting straps around the bottom of the 2x6's.

Note: The 2x6's extend the lifting straps away

from the bottom of the bed to prevent machine damage from excessive strap pressure against the leadscrew, feed rod, and spindle control rod. Make sure to use them.
