Specific safety rules for the wood lathe 

 

WARNING!

  Do  not  operate  your  wood  lathe  until  it  is  completely  assembled  and  installed 

according to the instructions. 

1. For your own safety, read the entire instruction manual before operating the lathe. 

2. Always wear eye protection. 

3. Do not wear gloves, necktie, or loose clothing. 

4. Tighten all locks before operating. 

5. Do not mount a split workplace. 

6. Use the lowest speed when starting a new workpiece. 

7. Read the warning label attached to the wood lathe. 

8. When turning a workpiece, always rough the wood to round form please stop  wood lathe at 

slow  speed.  If  the lathe  is  run  so fast that it vibrates, there  is  a  risk  that  the  workplace  will  be 

thrown or the tool jerked from your hands. 

9. Always rotate the workplace by hand before turning on the lathe. If the workpiece strikes the 

tool rest, it could split and be thrown out of the lathe. 

10. Do not allow the turning tools to bite into the wood. The wood could split or be thrown from 

the lathe. 

11. Always position the tool rest above the centerline of the lathe when shaping a piece of stock. 

12. Do not operate the lathe if it is rotating in the wrong direction.   

The workpiece must always be rotating toward you. 

13.  Before  attaching  a  workpiece  to  the  faceplate,  always  rough  it  out  to  make  it  as  round  as 

possible,  this  minimizes  the  vibrations  while  the  piece  is  being  turned.  Always  fasten  the 

workpiece securely to the faceplate, failure to do this could result in the workpiece being thrown 

away from the lathe. 

14. Position your hands so that they will not slip onto the workpiece. 

15.  Remove  all  loose  knobs  in  the  stock  before  mounting  between  the  centers  or  on  the 

faceplate.
