Thanks for that! I will check the various grub screws and correct where necessary.?

Hi, Herman.
On the tailstock, the one by the quill is a dog point. It rides inside a channel and acts as a stop or a limiting screw. The one by the handle is a cone point, as it is used to firmly lock the bearing in place. (In the manual the bearing is called a "guide pin".) It stabs down into the bearing to freeze it in place within the casting.
