18.9.3 Face plate
When using the face plate, always use at least three independent clamping devices.
Insufficient clamping can cause the workpiece to be thrown away during operation!
Mounting the face plate
1. Disconnect the machine from the mains!
2. Insert a dead centre into the tailstock, push the tailstock up to the face plate and lock the
tailstock in position.
3. Place the workpiece on the face plate, turn the tailstock sleeve so that the dead centre
touches the workpiece.
4. Lock the quill when enough pressure is applied to hold the workpiece. Additional support
may be required depending on the workpiece.
5. Clamp the workpiece in at least three locations as evenly spaced as possible - see
illustration above.
6. Re-check all safety precautions and the backlash.
7. Slide the tailstock away from the workpiece and mount the required tailstock tools for
drilling or boring or position the chisel for turning.

The face plate has several slots for T-bolts which can
accommodate clamping devices. Always use the face plate
when you think that the 3- or 4-jaw chuck cannot hold the
workpiece securely enough - see illustration on the left.
During facing, the planer tool is moved parallel to the axis
of rotation. The feed is carried out either manually by
turning the handwheel on the lathe slide or on the upper
slide or by switching on the automatic feed. The infeed for
the cutting depth is effected via the cross slide.
When facing, the turning tool is moved at right angles to
the axis of rotation. The feed is done manually with the
handwheel of the facing slide. The feed of the cutting depth
is effected by the top slide or the bed slide.
