also be used to drill or bore holes, or cut shallow 
tapers by using the offset set screws.

  Loosen the tailstock lock nut.

  Slide the tailstock by hand to the desired 

position.

  Re-tighten the tailstock lock nut.

  Rotate the quill lock counterclockwise to 

allow for quill adjustment.

  Turn the quill ball handle clockwise to 

move the quill toward the workpiece or 
counterclockwise to move the it away from 
the workpiece.

  Re-tighten the quill lock to secure the quill.

This tailstock quill accepts tooling arbors and 
drill bits with an MT#2 taper (see Figures 27 for 
examples).

If the arbor has an open hole in the end, a screw 
can be threaded into the end of it to provide a 
solid surface for the quill pin to push against 
when the quill is retracted for tool removal.

  With the tailstock locked in place, unlock the 

quill, then use the quill ball handle to extend 
the quill approximately

Thoroughly clean and dry the tapered 
mating surfaces of the quill and the center, 
making sure that no lint or oil remains on 
the tapers.

This helps ensure that the tool seats 

properly and has minimal runout.

  With a firm and quick motion, insert the tool 

into the quill. Check to see if it is properly 
seated by attempting to twist it by hand—it 
should not twist.

  Unlock the tailstock and move it until the tip 

of the tool is close to, but not touching, the 
workpiece, then re-lock the tailstock.

 The tool may seat further when it is 

pushed against the workpiece.
