MOUNTING THE SUPPORT BRACKETS
Note: You do not need to install support brackets on a lathe with a 12" diameter swing.
B
A
1. The two support brackets A are mounted vertically to the two support beams as shown in, B.
2. Each support bracket has 5 holes on the center line C. These 5 holes are used for adjusting the height of the sup-
port bracket to meet your lathe swing. (The holes are for swings of 14", 16", 18", 20", 22").
Note: If your wood lathe swing diameter is 12", then you DO NOT need to use the two support brackets. Skip ahead to
the next section "Mounting the duplicator rail".
3. To mount the support brackets to the support beams, align the two holes on the right and left side of the support
brackets with the two pins, D, on the support beams.
4. Install the 10 x 20 mm washer and 10 x 1.5 mm bolt E and tighten to secure the support bracket.
MOUNTING THE DUPLICATOR RAIL
TO LIMIT THE POTENTIAL FOR INJURY, INCLUDING SE-
RIOUS LACERATION, ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO REMOVE
THE CUTTING TOOL FROM THE DUPLICATOR BEFORE
INSTALLING OR REMOVING THE DUPLICATOR FROM
THE LATHE.
Hint: Before you begin, have the four 10 x 20 -2 flat washers,
B
, and four M10 x 1.5 - L30 hex nuts,
thread onto the bolts because you will not be able to let go
of the duplicator until it is fastened to the support brackets.
1. Install the (4) 10 mm square head bolts, A by sliding
them into the bottom t-slots, as shown in D. Locate
them about 2 inches in from the ends.
E
BE SURE TO HAVE AT LEAST 2 HELPERS WHEN MOUNTING. BECAUSE OF THE CARRIAGE WEIGHT IN THE FRONT, THE
UNIT WILL NOT BALANCE ON THE SUPPORT BEAMS UNTIL THE MOUNTING BOLTS ARE SECURE. IT MAY FLIP FOR-
WARDS CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY.
2. With helpers to assist in the lifting E, align the 4 square head bolts on the duplicator rail with the four holes on the
support beams (12" Lathe swing), F, or support brackets (swing larger than 12"), G, and lower the rail until it is rest-
ing on the support beams. Do not let go of the unit at this time.
