SAFETY
Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alert-
ness at all times when the lathe is being used.
•
For your own safety, read all rules and precautions in the
operator's manual before using this tool.
•
For eye protection, wear safety glasses complying with
United States ANSI Z87.1.
•
Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings,
bracelets or other jewelry that could get caught in moving
parts of machine or workpiece. Wear protective hair cover-
ing to contain long hair.
•
Tighten all clamps, fixtures and tailstock before applying
power. Check to make sure that all tools and wrenches
have been removed.
•
With switch off, rotate workpiece by hand to make sure
that there is adequate clearance. Start the machine on
lowest speed setting to verify that the workpiece is secure.
•
For large pieces, create a rough shape on another piece of
equipment before installing on faceplate.
•
Do not mount any workpieces that have splits or knots.
•
Remove any center from spindle when using an outboard
device for auxiliary turning.
•
Never attempt to remount a faceplate turning to the face-
plate for any reason.
•
Never attempt to remount a between-centers turning if the
original centers on the turning have been altered or removed.
•
When remounting a between-centers
turning that has non-
altered original centers, make sure that the speed is at the
lowest setting for start-up.
•
Use extra caution when mounting a between-centers
turn-
ing to the faceplate, or a faceplate turning to between-cen-
ters, for secondary operations. Make sure that the speed is
at the lowest setting for start-up.
•
Never perform any operation with this lathe where the
workpiece is hand-held. Do not mount a reamer, milling
cutter, drill bit, wire wheel or buffing wheel to the head-
stock spindle.
•
When hand-sanding
faceplate or between-centers
mount-
ed workpieces,
complete all sanding BEFORE removing
the workpiece from the lathe.
•
Never run the spindle in the wrong direction. The cutting
tool could be pulled from your hands. The workpiece
should always turn towards the operator.
•
For spindle turning, ALWAYS position the tool rest above the
centerline of the workpiece and spindle (approximately W').
•
Use the drill chuck accessory in the tail stock only. Do not
mount any drill bit that extends more than 6" beyond chuck
jaws.
CAUTION:
Follow safety instructions that appear on the
headstock assembly for your lathe.
Refer to Figure 1.
Check for shipping damage. If damage has occurred, a claim
must be filed with carrier. Check for completeness.
Immediately report missing parts to dealer.
Your wood lathe is shipped complete in one carton and includes
a motor. Separate all parts from packing materials and check
each one with the unpacking list to make certain all items are
accounted for before discarding any packing material.
If any parts are missing, do not attempt to assemble the lathe,
plug in the power cord, or turn the switch on until the missing
parts are obtained and properly installed.

IMPORTANT: The bed is coated with a protectant. To ensure
proper fit and operation, remove coating. Coating is easily
removed with mild solvents, such as mineral spirits, and a soft
cloth. Avoid getting cleaning solution on paint or any of the
rubber or plastic parts. Solvents may deteriorate these finish-
es. Use soap and water on paint, plastic or rubber compo-
nents. Wipe all parts thoroughly with a clean dry cloth. Apply
paste wax to the bed.
