Many thanks for all you comments / suggestions. I will treat them with
the contempt that they so richly deserve.
I have no idea what happened, but I cannot post 14 times in 1
minute...PC error mayhap? Cannot remove them though
Anyway now to my original question
This may sound a bit of a numb question,but....
I have just received another box of bits to go with the Viceroy I was
given last year. Includes chucks, dial gauges, tooling, grease guns
etc. {more boxes come to light the deeper the shed is explored!!}.
Anyway, one of the items is a Tailstock die holder. Takes 2 sizes of
die [boxes of dies as well, he he he ] Question, this is where it may
sound numb, do I use the lathe in back gear at slowest speed? do I
hold the side handle or let it rest against the bed? Just seems to me
that there may be 'quite a lot of torque' when lathe is running if I
have got hold of the side arm!
Many thanks

Sincere apology from me for jumping to a wrong conclusion.
I'll let the experts answer you query.

Use by hand - it's just there to keep things in line.

then turn chuck back half a turn and repeat? or do I rest the arm against the
bed and turn chuck by hand? I know it sounds dumb but I really cannot get my
head around it!
Many thanks
also...any clues how I can remove my erroneous posts? Ta!!
