Basic Outboard Turning Setup Steps
Extension Bed and Outboard Turning Banjo
The extension bed can be mounted on the left
hand side of the lathe for outboard turning. To
install the extension bed, align the holes on the
extension bed with the pins on the mounting
point. Then secure the extension bed with the
four M10 socket head cap screws provided.
The banjo shipped with the lathe is sized for the
main lathe bed only. The outboard turning banjo
is available as an accessory.
The tool rest shipped with the lathe is
compatible with both banjos.
Mounting the Workpiece
The outboard turning setup accepts blanks up to
35-1/2
” in diameter. Use the faceplate to mount
the blank on the lathe. With outboard turning,
the blank is only supported on one end.
Therefore, for safety, outboard turning is only
suitable for turning lightweight blanks in large
diameters, such as a large plate. The blank
should be mostly balanced before it is turned.
The included faceplates can support blanks up to
18” in diameter. Acquire a larger faceplate for
turning a larger blank. The faceplate size should
be at least 1/3 the diameter of the blank.
Set for Spindle Direction and Speed
The spindle on the outboard side is right-hand
threaded. To make the faceplate self-tightening
on the spindle during the operation, the spindle
direction must be set to reverse (REV) for
outboard turning.
Outboard turning should be done only when the
blank is too big to turn inboard. For safety, use
extra low speed and always use reverse spindle
direction for outboard turning.
Adjust and Secure the Tool Rest
Since the spindle direction must be in reverse,
the tool rest must be positioned on the rear side
of the lathe, and the woodturner needs to stand
on the back side of the lathe to turn.
