With the workpiece still attached, insert the
spur center into the headstock spindle (refer
to Installing/Removing Headstock Center

and spur center do not separate.

Do not press the workpiece too firmly with
the tailstock or the bearings will bind and
overheat. Likewise, do not adjust too loose-
ly or the workpiece will spin off the lathe.
Use good reason and care, otherwise, seri-
ous personal injury could result.
10. Properly adjust tool rest to workpiece (see
Adjusting Tool Rest on Page 21).
11. Before beginning lathe operation, rotate the
workpiece by hand to ensure that there is
safe clearance through the full rotation.
Keep the turning tool on the tool rest
the ENTIRE time that it is in contact with
the workpiece. Otherwise, the spinning
workpiece could force the lathe tool out of
your hands or entangle your hands with the
workpiece.
