G0462 Wood Lathe (Mfd. Since 11/14)

INTRODUCTION

The Model G0462 Wood Lathe is designed to turn 
wood stock so the operator can remove material 
with a hand-held cutting tool or chisel.

The  variable  speed  allows  for  infinite  spindle 
speed adjustment from 600–2400 RPM, and the 
digital  readout  provides  a  precise  reading  of  the 
current spindle speed.

The ability to rotate and move the head allows for 
turning workpieces with diameters larger than 12" 
on the outboard side of the lathe.

The  heavy-duty  tailstock  provides  substantial 
stability  when  mounting  the  workpiece  between 
centers.
