Hand tool rest
for turning wood
Die Handstahlauflage wird auf die Führungsstangen der Drehmaschine montiert.
There are two alternative adjustments:
1. By loosening the lower part by means of the
knurled screw, the hand tool rest can be adjusted to
any position or be swivelled to the workpiece.
2. By loosening the upper part by means of the
knurled screw, it can be centred or by
corresponding turning adapted to match the shape
of the workpiece.

To avoid accidents during operating with chisels on the hand steel rest and the
fixing of the workpiece into the chuck please use for wood turning the fix lathe
centre.
To avoid accidents, the hand tool rest is to be pushed as near as possible to the
workpiece and readjusted in the course of machining.

Wood turning lathe centre
The wood turning centre serves to accept workpieces out of wood between the centres and
enables a machining of the piece throughout its entire length without any reclamping being
necessary.
It is contained in the inner taper of the workspindle. Pay carful
attention to cleanliness when inserting the wood turning lathe
centre since dirt or metal chips could damage the taper. By
feeding forward the tailstock sleeve to the workpiece and the
cutting edges of the turning lathe centre are pushed into the
front side of the workpiece. The correct degree of pressure
depends upon the firmness of the workpiece, the diameter and
the cutting section (chisel advance).
