11. Operation
Adjusting the Tool Rest
To move the tool rest across the lathe bed, loosen the tool rest holder locking
lever by turning it anti-clockwise, slide the tool rest holder to the desired
position and tighten the locking lever in a clockwise direction.
To adjust the height of the tool rest loosen the tool rest locking lever,
position the tool rest as required and re-tighten, Fig 11.11.
Adjusting the Tailstock
Loosen the tailstock locking lever to move the tailstock along the lathe bed
to the desired position and tighten the lever, Fig 11.12.
To adjust the quill position, loosen the quill locking lever and turn the hand
wheel. When the quill is in the desired position, re-tighten the locking lever,
Fig 11.12.
Adjustment of the Clamping Action of the Tool Rest Holder
If movement of the tool rest holder or tailstock is unsatisfactory, either
due to being too stiff and difficult to move or too easy to move and giving
inadequate locking, the clamping action can be adjusted. Please see the
maintenance section of the manual for full details.
Stiffness may also be caused by timber residue or other debris on the
lathe bed.
Changing the Spindle Speed
The Envoy and Regent feature a 3 step pulley system. The drive belt should
be positioned on the corresponding pulleys as shown in Fig 11.13 to
achieve the speed range required.
Using a 4 mm hex wrench loosen the pulley hatch screw as shown in Fig
11.14 and open the pulley cover as shown in Fig 11.15.
