Faceplate - Grizzly G1495 Instruction Manual

A drill chuck (not supplied) can also be installed
in the tailstock arbor as long as it is a Morse
Taper #2 mounting. A chuck is useful if you wish
to do boring where the workpiece is held in the
chuck and a drill bit is placed in the tailstock. In
this application the tailstock handwheel would be
used to advance the piece into the stationary drill
bit.
(1) The tailstock barrel lock handle must
always be locked down while the lathe is in
use. The workpiece can be thrown from the
lathe if this step is not observed. (2) The tail-
stock barrel should not protrude from the
tailstock housing more than 2''. Serious per-
sonal injury may occur.
