INTRODUCTION
The TAK-13GH/BDTaper Attachment is designed to produce accurate tapers up to 10"long and
20 degree included angle at any distance from the spindle nose.
The attachment is easy to set, isalways ready for use,and hastwo sets of graduations - one in
degrees of taper, the other in inches per foot (10 degrees both sides of center lineand 4" per
feet).
The telescopic screw turns on two thrust bearings inthe taper slide and does not interfere with
regular use of the cross slide.
To realizethe highest precision from the TAK-13GH/BDtaper attachment, great care must be
taken to ensure that it is correctly mounted.
Please read this manual carefully before mounting and operating the attachment.
