Requirements
Some workpieces are not safe to turn or may
require modification before they are safe to
turn. Before turning a workpiece, inspect all
workpieces for the following:
•
Workpiece Type:
This machine is intended for cutting natural
and man-made wood products, and some
plastics. Never attempt to cut any metal,
stone, or rubber workpiece; cutting these
materials can lead to machine damage or
severe injury.
•
Foreign Objects:
Nails, staples, dirt, rocks and other foreign
objects are often embedded in wood.
While cutting, these objects can become
dislodged and hit the operator, cause tool
grab, or break the turning tool, which
might then fly apart. Always visually
inspect your workpiece for these items. If
they can't be removed, DO NOT turn the
workpiece.
• Large/Loose Knots:
Loose knots can become dislodged during
the turning operation. Large knots can
cause a workpiece to completely break
in half during turning and cause machine
damage and personal injury. Choose
workpieces that do not have large/loose
knots.
•
Excessive Warping or Twists:
Workpieces with excessive bowing or
twisting are unstable and unbalanced.
Never turn these workpieces at high
speed, or instability will be magnified and
the workpiece can be ejected from the
lathe causing impact injures. Only turn
concentric workpieces!
The purpose of this overview is to provide
the novice machine operator with a basic
understanding of how the machine is used
during operation, so the machine controls/
components discussed later in this manual are
easier to understand.
Due to the generic nature of this overview, it
is
not intended to be an instructional guide.
To learn more about specific operations, read
this entire manual and seek additional training
from experienced machine operators, and do
additional research outside of this manual by
reading "how-to" books, trade magazines, or
websites.
To complete a typical operation, the operator
does the following:
1. Examines workpiece to make sure it is
suitable for turning. No extreme bows,
knots, or cracks should exist.
2. Prepares and trims workpiece to make it
roughly concentric.
3. Installs workpiece between centers, or
attaches it to faceplate or chuck.
4. Adjusts tool rest to
1
⁄
8
" above workpiece
centerline, and sets minimum clearance
between the workpiece and lip of tool rest
to
1
⁄
4
".
5. Rotates workpiece by hand to verify that
the spindle and workpiece rotate freely
throughout the range of motion.
6. Positions dust collection hood near work
piece to collect wood chips secure in place.
7. Ties back loose hair and clothing, and puts
on face shield and respirator. Takes all
other required safety precautions.
8. Starts lathe, adjusts lathe speed, and
carefully begins turning operation, keeping
chisel against tool rest entire time it is
cutting.
