IMPORTANT: Make sure that the tool rest is
adjusted to be as close to the workpiece as pos-
sible. Rotate the workpiece by hand to check
the clearance before turning the lathe on.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
SWITCH
The lathe is fitted with a no-volt switch. In the
event of a power supply failure the wood lathe
need to be manually re-started by pushing the
“I” button on the switch.
SPEED CONTROL
1. The lathe motor must be running before you
can use the speed control lever.
2. The speed control lever can be turned to one
of ten fixed speeds. To set the speed, pull back
on the lever handle [1] and rotate the handle
to the next fixed speed. Use the index plate [2]
to choose right lathe speed.
3. Turn the lever clockwise to increase the
speed and turn counterclockwise to decrease
the speed.
4. You must move the speed control lever to
the lowest speed setting before turning the
switch off, otherwise the motor may not start
or be damaged.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, PUSH
THE BUTTON “0” ON THE SWITCH AND REMOVE
THE PLUG FROM THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET BE-
FORE PERFORMING MAINTENANCE OR LUBRICA-
TION WORK ON THE LATHE.
1. Blow out dust accumulation inside the motor,
housing, and bed assembly frequently.
2. A coat of automotive wax applied to the bed
will help keep the surface clean and keep the
movement of the tool rest and tailstock smooth.
3. Periodic lubrication of the spring levers and
other threaded parts will make these parts easier
to operate.
