Any tips as to adjusting the cross slide gib?
Anything to look out for while doing it would be most helpful for the newer lathe users.

I have the same tool holder and solved my 'scary moments' with one of these. Believe me, they are worth the forty odd bucks they cost:

I bought the 2mm wide version, but I reckon 1.6mm would be better for my Hercus 260.
No, I find the 7 degree tilt built into the parting blade holder is plenty.Chris
