Having the option to extend the Headstock further out can sometimes allow surfaces to be machined that could not otherwise be reached without breaking down the setup and reclamping the part. The spacer moves the spindle out an additional 1-1/4". In many cases, it is much easier to increase your machinable surface area by using this spacer than to reclamp the part. Precisely machined keyways keep the headstock accurately aligned. Laser engraved scales to indicate head tilt angle duplicate those on the standard Headstock mounting. Also included is a precision ground alignment key.
