To install the spur center:

- 2) using a rubber mallet or a piece of scrap wood (see page
14 for detailed instructions).
CAUTION: Never drive the workpiece into the spur cen-
ter while the spur center is in the headstock.
3. Push the spur center through the face plate into the head-
stock spindle.
To remove the spur center:
1. Hold the spur center (Fig. 6 - 1) to prevent it from falling.
Use a rag to protect your hand from the sharp edges.
2. Insert the knockout rod (Fig. 6 - 2) through the spindle
hole to tap out the spur center.
