Installing/Removing Spur Center - Grizzly G0456 Owner's Manual

Installing/Removing
Spur Center
The spur center installs in the headstock spindle
with a taper fit.
To prevent rusting, we recommend removing cen-
ters when not in use and coating the tapers with a
light layer of lubricant or metal protectant.
To install the centers:
1.
DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!
2.
Make sure the tapers are clean and free of
any dust or debris.
3.
Insert the tapered end of the center into the
spindle (see Figure 15), and push it in quickly
and firmly.

2. Insert the lock pin through the backing plate
and into the casting.
3. Use the provided wrench to back off the nut,
as shown Figure 16, to force the spur center
out of the spindle.
4. Remove the lock pin.
NOTICE
Leaving the lock pin installed when the lathe
is switched ON may damage your motor or
electrical components.
