With the exception of the handwheel handles, the 
lathe is shipped fully assembled.

To install the handwheel handles, thread the 
large handle into the carriage handwheel and the 
small handle into the cross slide handwheel, as 
shown in Figure 14.

In addition to the gearboxes, we also recommend 
that you lubricate all other points on the 
machine at this time. This can be accomplished 
by following the maintenance schedule on Page 
64.

 If your lathe was shipped with oil in the 

gearboxes, do not change that oil until after the 
break-in period.

Add the cutting fluid of your choice now. For 
detailed instructions on where the cutting fluid 
tank is located and how to add fluid, refer to 
Cutting Fluid System on Page 73.

The headstock oil pump tank, gearbox, and apron 
must have the proper amount and type of oil in 
them before the lathe can be operated for the 
first time.

Running the lathe without the required oil will 
void the warranty. Refer to the Lubrication 
section, beginning on Page 66, for details on how 
to check and add oil.
