If this is a tapered bronze bearing like most just clean, regrease, tighten by hand until just snug--back off a frog hair and lock in place. These are great bearings and are superior to ballbearings in most ways. Easy to adjust ALL slack out and smoother than ball bearings.

It helps if you call the thing by it’s name, CORONET, NOT Cornet, if you google that you will find lots of info.

Here are two pictures, one of the headstock maintenance and one of the accessories for the lathe, HTH :)
