STANDMODEL
If the casting legs are ordered with the machine the lathe comes completely mounted
in case legs are ordered later:
remove the foot- plates left/righthandside from the benchmodel
place machine transverse onto a workbench and mount legs from below to the lathe bed
level the machine with set-screws M12 supplied with the legs
ELECTRIC CONNECTION
The lathe is supplied complete with a plug 230 V/1 ph for electric mains
OPERATING THE MACHINE
The lathe is switched on/off by the main switch fixed at the headstock
Before pushing the green button at mobile box = “on” for spindle adjust the potentiometer to “0”-Zero!
Danger of Accident !
SPEED REGULATION
Turning the potentiometer clockwise: increasing of speed, see display
The adjusted speed is only shown if the spindle is running.
Regulation of spindle speed with the potentiometer only if the spindle is running
Infinitely variable speed with 2 pulley-steps
1 step: 0-1300 rpm/min
2 step: 0-3100 rpm/min
Use 1step of pulley if working with appr. 300 rpm, this ensures a sufficient power in the lower speeds
CHANGING THE VEE-BELT TO THE REQUESTED PULLEY STEP
switch mainswitch to “Zero” before opening the vee-belt cover
- loosen the motor clamping by handle, move it forwards
- change vee-
belt onto the requested pulley step by “moving” the pulley by hand forward/reverse
(easier handling)
- fasten clamping lever : do
not use too much tension
because high tension can cause
Vibration, wear of bearings and veebelt, could also cause damage on the motor-schaft
- close vee-belt pulley
correctly
otherwise the motor will not run (safety switch inside)
SPINDLE SPEED AND WORKPIECE DIAMETER
The maximum workpiece diameter which is allowed at the
maximum spindle speed of 3.025 rpm: D=130 mm
Watch the stickers on headstock for the adjusted speed and the max. workpiece diameter
CHANGING THE TURNING DIRECTION/ROTATION OF SPINDLE
correct turning direction = lefthand rotation, anti-clockwise
in any case:
the righthand/clockwise rotation may be used only if chucks are used or supplied
with optional security locking!
the flip switch/or selector for forward/reverse is at the movable box:
Before changing the direction turn the potentiometer to “Zero”
when changing the turning direction the inverter will automatically slow down the speed:
spindle starts slow in opposite direction, speed increases again as adjusted before
Caution
to meet the safety regulation: adjust the lowest spindle speed before changing the spindle direction.
Chucks may be used only if supplied with optional security locking
!
