Now headstock, tool rest and tailstock can be installed again
(Fig 7). Install both studs (N, Fig 4).
Installing bed extension: (JET Option # 719401)
The bed extension can be mounted to the upper or lower
holes of the lathe.
Mounting the extension to the lower holes allows use of the
tool support during outboard turning (Fig 8).
Mounting in upper holes increases the spindle length capacity
of the lathe.
Have an assistant hold bed extension flush to end of lathe
bed, and insert four screws with washers (P, Fig 9).
Snug screws just enough to hold bed extension to lathe bed.
Unscrew stop bolt (N) from lathe bed and insert it into hole at
