The headstock includes a 2-1/2" spindle diameter and a 2-1/2" hole through the spindle. The tailstock offers an 8" quill travel with a #5 Morse taper and MT #4 centers. The lathe is fitted with an 8" 3-jaw chuck and an Acu-Rite Turnmate 2-axis digital readout for enhanced accuracy. Additional features include a chip and coolant tray, and the machine is currently wired for 230V, 3-phase power.
