G1067Z Wood Lathe
Additional Safety Instructions For The Lathe
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.
Every shop environment is different. Always
consider safety first, as it applies to your
individual working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and respect.
Failure to do so could result in serious per-
sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor
work results.
Like all machines there is danger associated
with the Model G1067Z. Accidents are fre-
quently caused by lack of familiarity or fail-
ure to pay attention. Use this machine with
respect and caution to lessen the possibility
of operator injury. If normal safety precau-
tions are overlooked or ignored, serious
personal injury may occur.
1.
MAKE SURE ALL GUARDS
are in place
and that the Lathe sits on a flat, stable sur-
face.
2.
ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
or a
face shield when operating the Lathe. All
safety equipment should be ANSI approved.
3.
USE A RESPIRATOR TO AVOID INHAL-
ING DUST.
All safety equipment should be
ANSI approved.
4.
BEFORE STARTING THE MACHINE
be
certain the workpiece has been properly
imbedded on the headstock and tailstock
centers and that there is adequate clearance
for the full rotation.
5.
ADJUST TOOL REST
to provide proper
support for the turning tool you will be using.
Test tool rest clearance by rotating work-
piece by hand before turning lathe on.
6.
SELECT THE TURNING SPEED
which is
appropriate for the type of work. Allow the
lathe to gain its full speed before using.
7.
ALWAYS INSPECT THE CONDITION
of
the materials you are turning. Do not turn
pieces with knots, splits and other potential-
ly dangerous conditions.
8.
KEEP LATHE TOOLS PROPERLY
SHARPENED
and hold firmly in the proper
position when turning.
9.
NEVER OPERATE THE LATHE WITH
DAMAGED OR WORN PARTS.
Maintain
your lathe in proper working condition.
10. MAKE SURE YOUR WOOD LATHE IS
TURNED OFF
, disconnected from its
power source and all moving parts have
come to a complete stop before starting
any inspection, adjustment, or mainte-
nance procedure.
11. DO NOT LEAVE LATHE RUNNING
UNATTENDED
for any reason.
12. DO NOT STOP LATHE USING YOUR
HAND
against the workpiece.
13. KEEP LOOSE CLOTHING ARTICLES
such as sleeves, belts and jewelry items
away from the lathe spindle.
14. WHEN FACE PLATE TURNING
, use lathe
chisels on the downward spinning side of
the workpiece only.
15. REMOVE THE TOOL REST
when per-
forming sanding or polishing operations on
the rotating spindle.
16. ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE
too much
material at once may cause work material
to fly out of the lathe.
17. THE JOINTS OF GLUED-UP WORK-
PIECES
should be high quality to prevent
them from breaking under the extreme
forces of lathe turning. Consult in-depth
trade manuals and instructional books for
correct techniques when gluing up a work-
piece from multiple pieces. If a joint fails
during a lathe turning operation, serious
injury or death could occur.
