Owner Manual

Sweet Sixteen Version 2.0

Before starting your

Sweet 16:

Plug your lathe into a working outlet of the proper voltage.

If 110 volts, use the standard household grounded outlet.

If 220 volts, use a NEMA 6‐20 outlet, rated for 250 volts

and 20 Amps. Available at any hardware store.

Note: GFI circuits are NOT compatible with your lathe.

NEMA 5‐15, 110 volt NEMA 6‐20, 220 volt

DO NOT USE GFI CIRCUITS

Be sure the spindle lock is all the way down – engaging the

spindle lock disconnects the controls. Please note, the

spindle lock might be only part way up – not enough to

lock the spindle, but enough to disconnect the controls.

DO NOT

use the key pad on the inverter to run the

lathe. Use the magnetic backed controller.

When plugged in, the display will read “Stop”. When

running, the spindle RPM is displayed.

Your inverter may be beige or blue. Both work the same.

For safety sake, turn the speed dial to the lowest setting

every time you start the lathe.

This is a great habit to get into.
