Insert the end of the dead center into the
tailstock barrel, as shown in Figure 18, until
it seats tight enough that it will not rotate
when turned by hand. Note—do not worry
about pushing the dead center into the barrel
too far. The force of the center contacting a
mounted workpiece will fully seat the taper
when the handwheel is tightened.
4. Tighten the barrel lock to prevent the tailstock
barrel from moving during operation.
