Safety goggles/face mask
: Always wear safety goggles when working with the machine.
Always use adequate eye/face protection. Conventional eyeglasses are generally only
shock-resistant and safety goggles only protect the eyes. Face protection protects the
eyes and the face.
Breathing protection:
Different types of wood, exotic wood materials and other harmful
substances as well as tasks such as sanding, sawing, and drilling can generate harmful
dust. Therefore, only ever operate the machine in well-ventilated rooms and wear
breathing protection (PPE). Also use suitable dust extraction and/or filtration of the circulating air.
If you are using the wood turning lathe commercially, statutory safety regulations of the respective
country must be complied with.
•
Do not work in a damp and dangerous environment.
The Stratos Wood Turning Lathe has been exclusively designed for use indoors.
Protect the wood turning lathe from damp and humid locations. Do not subject the machine to
moisture. Ensure the working environment is sufficiently lit and ventilated. Avoid areas with an
explosive atmosphere. Non-compliance with these rules can lead to loss of warranty.
•
Keep your workplace clean.
Untidy workplaces and surfaces can cause accidents. Only after all objects (tools, pieces of wood
etc.) have been removed from the wood turning lathe, should you turn on the machine. Keep the
immediate working area and the floor free from dirt and offcuts. Accumulated wood chippings are a
fire risk and can cause accidents.
•
Fire prevention
Observe fire detection and firefighting options such as location and operation of fire extinguishers.
•
Comply with electrical safety standards.
Pay attention to the appropriate electrical installation to which you connect the wood turning lathe
and only ever use the supplied safety plugs. Do not use extension leads. Runs from a 240V
supply but sockets should be run from a fused 16-amp supply in the main circuit board.
Disconnect the machine from the power supply before carrying out maintenance or repairs.
•
In the event of a power outage
, the work piece will continue to spin freely. The machine slowing
down can take some time.
•
Prevent unintentional starting.
Make sure that the main switch is in the "
OFF
" position when connecting the wood turning lathe to
an isolated socket.
•
Never leave the machine running unsupervised.
Leave the machine only when it has been turned off and has come to a standstill.
•
Safety devices
Make sure the available safety devices are in their position and kept operational.
•
Use the appropriate tools.
Only ever use suitable tools or accessories for wood turning. Avoid unnecessary load on the tools.
Maintain the wood turning tools in a good condition
.
Sharp and clean tools help ensure the best and
safe results. This includes the correct position of the tool in relation to the work piece.
•
Never climb on the machine and tools.
A tilting machine or a cutting tool which is accidentally touched can cause serious injuries.
•
Remove adjusting wrenches and spanners.
Never leave the T-bar handle in the chuck. When starting the chuck, the T-bar handle can be
ejected and cause serious injuries. Get into the habit of checking that all tools have been removed
from the machine before turning it on.
•
Cleaning the wood turning lathe.
Turn off the wood turning lathe before cleaning it. Remove wood chippings and dirt with a brush.
