Refer to Chuck & Faceplate Mounting 
instructions on Page 27 to mount the 4-jaw 
chuck to the spindle.

The 4-jaw chuck features independently 
adjustable hardened steel jaws to hold non-
cylindrical or off-center workpieces. Each jaw can 
be removed from the chuck body and reversed for 
a wide range of work holding versatility.

  DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!

  Place a chuck cradle or plywood on the 

bedway below the chuck to protect it.

  Use the chuck key to open each jaw so the 

workpiece will lay flat against the chuck face 
or jaw steps.

  With help from another person or a 

supporting device, mount the workpiece 
centered on the chuck, then turn each jaw 
until it makes contact with the workpiece.

  After the workpiece is held in place by 

the jaws, turn the chuck by hand and pay 
attention to the workpiece alignment.

— If the workpiece is not correctly aligned 

for your operation as you turn the chuck, 
make fine adjustments by slightly 
loosening one jaw and tightening the 
opposing jaw until the workpiece is 
correctly aligned (see Figure 54 for an 
example).

Workpiece

Center Point

  Tighten each jaw in small increments. After 

you have adjusted the first jaw, continue 
tightening in an opposing sequence, as 
shown in Figure 53.

The tailstock (Figure 55) on your lathe can be 
used to support workpieces with the use of a live 
or dead center (refer to Centers on Page 37). 
It can also be used to drill or bore holes in the 
center of a part or cut shallow tapers by using 
the offset adjustment.
