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.
4. Exposed metal areas of the Lathe, such as
bedways and spindles, have been factory
coated with a protectant. This should be
removed with a soft cloth and a cleaner-
