Indexing/Spindle Lock; Maintenance - LEMAN TAB040 Manuel D'utilisation

The lathe can be set up for a faceplate turning
operation. The work piece should be "rough cut"
as close as possible to fi nished shape before
mounting. (See Fig.16)

Indexing/Spindle Lock

The dual purpose indexing/spindle lock is
positioned on the top of the headstock for ease
of use. The headstock indexing feature has 12
equally spaced positions. The spring loaded
locking pin assembly is engaged by turning the
knob a half turn allowing it to drop into the desired
position. To disengage, lift the lock knob up and
turn a half turn either direction. (See Fig.17 &
Fig.18)
The 12 position indexing feature allows accurate
pattern work on projects such as straight
fl uting, grooving, drilling, lay out and more. This
feature also allows the user to lock the spindle
for removing face plates, chucks and other
accessories without needing two tools.
To use the spindle lock, disengage the locking
pin by lifting up and rotating a half turn. The pin
will engage in the closest pin available. Once
locked an accessory such as a face plate can be
removed with the wrench supplied.
CAUTION! BEFORE CLEANING OR CARRYING OUT MAINTENANCE WORK, DISCONNECT
