Hello folks, having a little difficulty with getting the 2MT drive center (stock) removed from the headstock on a new G0632Z.....tried WD-40 at the spindle/taper junction with a couple hours wait...gentle /firm taping with the knockout tool.....no luck.... just trying to take the common sense approach w/o damaging my new lathe, and would love some suggestions. I've worked on this situation for 6hrs plus.... Additionally, this occurred after working on my first spindle. I checked the drive center and headstock connection with a firm insertion by hand. It was very snug and needed a tap with the knockout tool which popped it right out. There were no burrs detected on the drive center, taper however, I did not think to check inside of the drive center for any particles etc...so, shortly after with the drive center, spindle blank and tail stock setup were centered, I started on the blank. My mistake may have been too much pressure from the tail stock during setup. That is a moot point now. Have not contacted Grizzly tech support as of now, but I may have to..... Thanks for any and all input. Take care
