Additional Safety for Wood Lathes
USE this and other machinery with caution
and respect. Always consider safety first,
as it applies to your individual working
conditions. No list of safety guidelines can
be complete—every shop environment is
different. Failure to follow guidelines could
result in serious personal injury, damage
to equipment or poor work results.
READ and understand this
entire instruction manual
before using this machine.
Serious personal injury
may occur if safety and
operational information is
not understood and fol-
lowed. DO NOT risk your
safety by not reading!

KEEPING GUARDS IN PLACE.
Make sure all guards are in place and that the lathe sits on a flat, stable
surface.

EYE/FACE PROTECTION.
Always wear eye protection or a face shield when operating the lathe.
3. RESPIRATORY PROTECTION.
Always wear a respirator when using this machine. Wood dust may
cause allergies or long-term respiratory health problems.
4. MOUNTING WORKPIECE.
Before starting, be certain the workpiece has been properly imbedded on
the headstock and tailstock centers and that there is adequate clearance for the full rotation.
5. WORKPIECE CONDITION.
Always inspect the condition of your workpiece. DO NOT turn pieces with
knots, splits, and other potentially dangerous conditions. Make sure joints of glued-up pieces have
high quality bonds and won't fly apart during operation.

Adjust tool rest to provide proper support for the turning tool you will be
using. Test tool rest clearance by rotating workpiece by hand before turning lathe
ON
.

TURNING SPEED.
Select the correct turning speed for your work, and allow the lathe to gain full
speed before using.

Keep lathe chisels properly sharpened and held firmly in position when turn-
ing.
9.
OPERATING DAMAGED LATHE.
Never operate the lathe with damaged or worn parts.
10.
ADJUSTMENTS/MAINTENANCE.
Make sure your wood lathe is turned
OFF
, disconnected from its
power source, and all moving parts have come to a complete stop before starting any inspection,
adjustment, or maintenance procedure.
11. STOPPING LATHE.
DO NOT stop the lathe by using your hand against the workpiece. Allow the lathe
to stop on its own.

AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT.
Keep long hair and loose clothing articles such as sleeves, belts, and
jewelry items away from the lathe spindle.
