The cross-slide has bolted to it a bar A carrying a roller which is pressed against a forming plate B by a heavy spring C.
The small handle at O is for moving the cross-slide along the bed when this is necessary in order to feed a tool sidewise.
The machine illustrated has a power feed for the cross-slide as well as for the turret.
It has been taken for granted that in setting the turret slide, room has been left between it and the chuck for the cross-slide.
The rear bevel is roughed and finished by tools and held on the cross-slide.
