Always ensure the correct posture and your balance.

•
Check for damaged parts.
Before using the wood turning lathe or tools, carefully check them for damage. Ensure that
these items are in an appropriate condition and that they are fit for purpose.
Check the alignment and attachment of moveable parts. Faulty parts can impact operation and
cause injuries. Damaged parts must be repaired or replaced by a professional.
•
Working with the wood turning lathe.
With the electric current turned off, check, by turning the spindle with your hand, that the work piece
can be rotated freely.
Check the work piece for parts that may break off it during the wood turning process. Remember
when using adhesives that cyanoacrylate super glue can remain liquid for hours in cavities or wide
splits. It can be thrown outward because of the centrifugal force and be ejected in the same direction
as the wood chippings, i.e. toward the wood turner, potentially causing injuries or representing a
health hazard.
Always check whether the correct speed is set before turning on the spindle.
Use the lowest speed for new work pieces or work pieces that are not round.
Turn using the recommended speed (Table in Fig. 49 and Fig. 50).
Never slow down the work piece with your hand.
Position the tool rest as close to the work piece as possible (about 5-10 mm). Before each start, turn
the work piece with your hand in order to ensure that it rotates freely. Use the handwheel for this.
Turn off the wood turning lathe every now and then in order to position the tool rest ideally.
2. Intended Use
The Stratos 230 Wood Turning Lathe has been designed and built for turning work using wood materials,
horn, bone and plastics in small sizes. Processing of other materials is not permitted or may only take
place in particular cases after feedback with the equipment manufacturer.
The wood turning lathe must exclusively be used for turning between centres and face plate turning of
round and regularly shaped, prismatic work pieces.
The wood turning lathe is not suitable for use in environments with a risk of explosion.
In the event of
non- intended use of the machine, risk to people and material damage can result, as well
as the machine's function being compromised.
If the wood turning lathe is used for anything other than listed above, its use will be deemed as non-
intentional. As the manufacturer, we will not accept any liability for damage caused in this way.
