Safety Foot Brake
This lathe is equipped with a foot brake (see
Figure 8) to quickly stop the spindle instead of
allowing the spindle to coast to a stop on its own.
Pushing the foot brake while the spindle is ON
cuts power to the motor and stops the spindle.
After the foot brake is used, the spindle lever must
be returned to the OFF (middle) position to reset
the spindle switches before re-starting spindle
rotation.
