DESCRIPTION
Craftsman Copy Crefters provide the Craftsman Wood Lathes
with the capability to reproduce spindles and posts up to 38"
long. Model 24951 is designed for use on lathes 21715 end
21717. Model 24952 is designed for use on lathe 21712. It will
produce duplicate workpieces from either an original spindle
or a template. It can also copy shallow faceplate turnings up
to 4" in diameter. The copy crafter features a cast aluminum
carriage that rides on parallel steel rails, a steel guide pin with
follower that maintains pattern contact to reproduce detailed
shapes, cutting depth that can be set with fine adjustment
screw or turret which has preset depth adjustments at V_"
increments up to 1", four-spoke handwheel with reck and
pinion drive, mounts to two tool rests (1 is included), and
includes a resharpenable, replaceable high speed steel chisel
bit.

WARNING:
Operation of any power tool can result in foreign
objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe
eye damage. Always wear safety goggles complying with
United States ANSI Z87.1 (shown on package) before com-
mencing power tool operation. Safety goggles are available at
Sears retail stores or catalog.
CAUTION:
Always observe the following safety precautions:
SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
• Whenever adjusting or replacing any parts on the tool, turn
switch OFF and remove the plug from power source.
• Recheckall lockinghandles. T hey must be tightened secarely
• Make sure all moving parts are free and clear of any
interference.
• Make sure all fasteners are tightand have not vibrated loose.
• With power disconnected, test operation by hand for clear-
ance and adjust if necessary.
• Always wear eye protection or face shield.
• After turning switch on, always allow the spindle to come
up to full speed before turning.
• Be sure spindle runs counterclockwisewhen viewing
spindle from the tailstock end.
• Keep hands clear of spindle, centers, faceplatas and other
moving parts of machine.
• For optimum performance, do not stall motor or reduce
speed. Do not force the tool into the work.
ADJUSTMENT
• Before starting,the cuffingtool must be set approximately
%" above the spindle.Check tool heightat both the head-
stock and the tailstock.
Vertical adjustment can be made by looseninghandles
which secure the vertical brackets and adding or removing
spacers.The tool rest bases can also be moved horizontally
across or along the lathe bed, towardsor away from the
spindle.
In orderfor the copy crafter to function properly,the distance
from the cuttingtool to the lathe spindle centadine must be
equal to the distancefrom the follower assembly to pattern
bolt centedine.This can be accomplishedby mountingiden-
tical sized stock in the lathe and on the pattern bolts.Adjust
the copy crafter so that the cuffingtool touches the stock
mounted in the lathe and the follower assemblytouches the
stock mounted in the pattern bolts.The copycrafter can be
adjusted by moving the pattern supports,movingthe tool
rest bases across the lathe bed or adjustingthe yoke on the
tool holder.
DUPLICATE TURNING
• Mount the original in the pattern bolts.The tool rest bases
will need to be adjusted along the lathe bed to the required
length.
• When starting with a square piece of stock, that will be
reduced to a cylinder, use the turret stop and take light cuts
until the cylinderhas been formed.
NOTE: Do not start out on the end of the workpiece, as the
tool may become caught and damage the workpiece.
• Turn the workpieca to a cylinder slightlylarger than final
size. At this time adjust the follower assembly against the
odginal.
• Glide the tool holder along the support bars to duplicate the
odginal piece.
