The turret is loose
LDB4-70A(6132) tool turret User:
I received the tool post and I am working on the mounting stand. The instructions say to remove the motor cover to turn the turret for mounting. I removed the small cover on the front and turned the worm gear with the hex key. After I had moved it into position, the turret is loose and leaked some oil. Is that normal? Will it tighten up when I install it? Thank you, I look forward to using this tool. It looks very well made.
Here is the play in the worm gear and the way the turret is loose.

It is normal, the turret will lock when it rotates in position.
