A heavy-duty guard can be installed on any size lathe. Simply screw the 4 pillar posts supplied at 4 sites around the headstock and then slip on the track assembly chassis. Now mount the shield. Pillar posts, in relation to crossmembers are adjustable vertically hence easily positioned around the headstock without interference.
Installation Instructions:
Remove all packing material from the shield and its mounting assembly
Measure how high the underside of the shield is to be above the headstock of the lathe in order to clear the chuck. Then cut the mounting pillars to length if necessary.
The four pillars can then be bolted to the headstock using M8 bolts, making sure that the assembly is located so as to allow the shield to slide back far enough to expose the chuck.
The pillar can be fixed anywhere along the length of the crossmembers, and either to the right or left of them by sliding or rotating the cast boss into which it locates the cast boss clamps to the crossmaker and pillar with grubscrews.
This flexibility of mounting position ensure that the pillar can be fixed without interfering with any part of the machinery housed within the headstock.
With the chassis located to the pillars, fix the shield (any model) to the chassis using six socket set screws provided, and check that access to the machine is not impeded.
