3. Use quill handwheel to feed quill out from
casting approximately 1".
Note: The maximum quill travel is 3
we do not recommend extending the quill
more than 2" or stability and accuracy will be
reduced.
4. Insert center into tailstock quill.
5. Seat center firmly into quill during workpiece
installation by rotating quill handwheel clock-
wise to apply pressure with center engaged
in center hole of workpiece.
Note: Only apply enough pressure with
tailstock quill to securely mount workpiece
between centers. Avoid overtightening cen-
ter against workpiece, or it may become
difficult to remove later, and it will result in
excessive friction and heat, which may dam-
age workpiece and center.
Removing Center from Tailstock
To remove the center from the quill, hold onto it
with a gloved hand or shop rag, then rotate the
quill handwheel counterclockwise to draw the quill
back into the casting until the center releases.
If the center does not come loose by retracting
the quill, extend the quill to expose the slot shown
in Figure 51, then use a drift key to remove the
center.

4. Lubricate dead center point and workpiece
center holes, then mount workpiece between
centers and hold it in place with light pressure
from tailstock center.
5. Seat center firmly into quill by rotating quill
handwheel clockwise to apply pressure
against workpiece (see example below).

Note: Only apply enough pressure to securely
mount the workpiece between centers. Avoid
over-tightening the center against the workpiece,
or it may become difficult to remove later. Also,
over-tightening will result in excessive friction and
heat, which may damage the workpiece or center.
