Information and Specifications
- The Chuck Diameter being used on your Lathe makes for a good formula.
- Utilize Dimension "A" and other dimensions given in chart shown below.
- On Lathes with center heights of 7 inches or more there is a significant variation in the diameter of a 3-Jaw as against a Jaw Chuck. It may be necessary to install the next larger Latheguard to accommodate for the 4-Jaw Chuck. Keeping a double bracket (No. 13071) on the Lathe makes it possible to switch your latheguard from small to larger size and vice versa, in one minute.
- When calculating Dimensions "A", always allow ample clearance for largest machined part or furthest jaw extension.
