3. Technical data
2. Intended Use
Use the lowest speed for new work pieces or work pieces that
are not round.
Turn using the recommended speed (Table in Fig. 29).
Never slow down the work piece with your hand.
Position the tool rest as close to the work piece as possible
(about 5-10 mm). Before each start, turn the work piece with
your hand in order to ensure that it rotates freely. Use the hand
wheel for this. Turn off the wood turning lathe every now and
then in order to position the tool rest ideally
The MIDITEC FU-175 Wood Turning Lathe has been designed
and built for indoors work in the hobby sector and for se-
mi-professional turning work (max. 6 hours continuous ope-
ration a day) using wood materials, horn, bone and plastics in
small sizes. Processing of other materials is not permitted or
may only take place in particular cases after feedback with the
equipment manufacturer.
The wood turning lathe must exclusively be used for turning
between centers and face plate turning of round and regularly
shaped, prismatic work pieces.
The wood turning lathe is not suitable for use in environments
with a risk of explosion.
In the event of non-intended use of the machine, risk to peo-
ple and material damage can result, as well as the machine‘s
function being compromised.
If the wood turning lathe is used for anything other than listed
above, its use will be deemed as non-intentional. As the ma-
nufacturer, we will not accept any liability for damage caused
in this way.
