Before installing a tool rest, decide which
one will be best for your application. Unless
workpiece clearance is an issue, install the
larger tool rest to give yourself more room to
work.
To install the tool rest, do these steps:
1. Insert the tool rest into the tool holder as
shown in
Figure 12.
2. Lock the tool rest in place with the tool rest
lock.
