SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY
Before installing the machine, consider the availability and proximity of the required power supply
circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the
requirements for this machine, a new circuit must
be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,
fire, or equipment damage, installation work and
electrical wiring must be done by an electrican or
qualified service personnel in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards.
Electrocution, fire, or
equipment damage may
occur if machine is not
correctly grounded and
connected to the power
The full-load current rating is the amperage a
machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.
On machines with multiple motors, this is the
amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all
motors and electrical devices that might operate
at one time during normal operations.
The full-load current is not the maximum amount
of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine
is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond
the full-load rating.
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length
of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—
especially if connected to an undersized circuit.
To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid overloading the machine during operation and make
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that
meets the requirements in the following section.
For your own safety and protection of
Note: The circuit requirements listed in this manual apply to a dedicated circuit—where only one
machine will be running at a time. If this machine
will be connected to a shared circuit where multiple machines will be running at the same time,
consult a qualified electrician to ensure that the
circuit is properly sized for safe operation.
A power supply circuit includes all electrical
equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel
in the building and the machine. The power supply circuit used for this machine must be sized to
safely handle the full-load current drawn from the
machine for an extended period of time. (If this
machine is connected to a circuit protected by
fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The
wire with green insulation (with or without yellow
stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair
or replacement of the power cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not understand these grounding
requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether
the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice
that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, disconnect it from power, and immediately replace it with
a new one.
We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this machine.
cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only
on a temporary basis.
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may
damage electrical components and shorten motor
life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord
size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller
(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must
contain a ground wire, match the required plug
and receptacle, and meet the following requirements:
Grounding Requirements
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event
of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current.
For 220V operation: This machine is equipped
with a power cord that has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding plug (see following figure). The plug must only be inserted into a matching receptacle (outlet) that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
No adapter should be used with the
required plug. If the plug does not fit the
available receptacle, or the machine must

weight of the operator and any dynamic loading
that may occur when operating the machine.
Space Allocation
Consider the largest size of workpiece that will
be processed through this machine and provide
enough space around the machine for adequate
operator material handling or the installation of
auxiliary equipment. With permanent installations,
leave enough space around the machine to open
or remove doors/covers as required by the maintenance and service described in this manual.
See below for required space allocation.
Children or untrained people
may be seriously injured by
this machine. Only install in an
access restricted location.
The physical environment where the machine is
operated is important for safe operation and longevity of machine components. For best results,
operate this machine in a dry environment that is
free from excessive moisture, hazardous chemicals, airborne abrasives, or extreme conditions.
Extreme conditions for this type of machinery are
generally those where the ambient temperature
range exceeds 41°–104°F; the relative humidity
range exceeds 20–95% (non-condensing); or the
environment is subject to vibration, shocks, or
bumps.
Electrical Installation
Make sure all power cords are protected from
traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals,
or other hazards. Make sure to leave access to
a means of disconnecting the power source or
engaging a lockout/tagout device, if required.

Cleanup
The unpainted surfaces of your machine are
coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that
prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.
This rust preventative works extremely well, but it
will take a little time to clean.
Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your
machine. The time you spend doing this now will
give you a better appreciation for the proper care
of your machine's unpainted surfaces.
There are many ways to remove this rust preven
tative, but the following steps work well in a wide
variety of situations. Always follow the manufac
turer’s instructions with any cleaning product you
use and make sure you work in a well-ventilated
area to minimize exposure to toxic fumes.
Although not required, we recommend that you
mount your new machine to the floor. Because
this is an optional step and floor materials may
vary, floor mounting hardware is not included.
Generally, you can either bolt your machine to
the floor or mount it on machine mounts. Both
options are described below. Whichever option
you choose, we recommend leveling your machine
with a precision level.

Stock Inspection &
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:
Adjusting Headstock
The Model G0733 headstock is equipped with a
cam-action clamping system to secure it to the
lathe bed. When the lever is tightened, a locking
plate lifts up underneath the bed and secures
the tailstock in place. The headstock can be
positioned anywhere along the lathe bed.
• Workpiece Type:
This machine is intended for turning natural
wood products. Never attempt to turn any
composite wood materials, plastics, metal,
stone, or rubber workpieces; turning 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 injury. Choose workpieces that do not
have large/loose knots.
• Excessive Warping:
Workpieces with excessive bowing or twist-
ing 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 injury. Only
turn concentric workpieces!
To position the headstock along the length of
the lathe bed:
1. DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!
2. Loosen the headstock lock lever (see
Figure 18).
Headstock Lock
Lever
Figure 18. Headstock lock lever location.
3. Slide the headstock to the desired location on
the bed, and use the headstock lock handle
to secure the headstock in position.
Note: The large clamping hex nut underneath
the headstock will require occasional adjusting to ensure proper clamping pressure of
the headstock to the bed. Turn this hex nut
in small increments to fine tune the clamping
pressure as needed.
Model G0733 (Mfg. Since 10/11)
Always operate the lathe with the headstock
firmly locked to the bed. Otherwise, serious
personal injury may occur as the workpiece
or faceplate could shift during operation or
be ejected from the lathe.
-21-
Page 24
Tool Rest
Adjusting Tailstock
The tailstock adjusts in the same manner as the
headstock.
To position the tailstock along the length of
the bed:
1. Loosen the tailstock lock lever and move the
tailstock to the desired position along the
bed, as shown in Figure 19.
Tailstock Lock
Lever
Adjusting Tool Rest
The tool rest assembly on the Model G0733
has two adjustable components, to provide the
safest and most stable position when operating
the lathe. The tool rest base adjusts in the same
manner as the headstock and tailstock. The tool
rest pivots and may be adjusted vertically in the
tool rest base.
To position the tool rest assembly along the
length of the lathe bed:
1. Loosen the tool rest base lock handle and
move the tool rest assembly to the desired
position on the lathe bed, as shown in
Figure 20.

2. Re-engage the tailstock lock lever to secure
the tailstock to the bed.
Note: The large clamping hex nut underneath
the tailstock will require occasional adjusting
to ensure proper clamping pressure of the
tailstock to the bed. Turn this hex nut in small
increments to fine tune the clamping pressure as needed.
Always operate the lathe with the tailstock
firmly locked to the bed. Otherwise, serious
personal injury may occur by the tailstock
moving during operation and the workpiece
being ejected at high speed.

7. With the workpiece still attached, insert the
spur center into the headstock spindle (refer
to Installing/Removing Headstock Center
on Page 23 for additional instructions).
Note: Use the tool rest to support the opposite
end of the workpiece so that the workpiece
and spur center do not separate during
installation.
8. Install the live center into the tailstock quill
and tighten the quill lock handle to lock the
quill in position (refer to Page 24 for additional instructions).
9. Slide the tailstock toward the workpiece
until the point of the live center touches the
workpiece center mark, then lock the tailstock
in this position.
10. Loosen the quill lock handle and rotate the
tailstock handwheel to push the live center

Do not press the workpiece too firmly with
the tailstock or the bearings will bind and
overheat. Do not adjust the tailstock too
loosely or the workpiece will spin off the
lathe. Use good judgment and care, otherwise, serious personal injury could result
from the workpiece being ejected at high
speeds.
11. Properly adjust the tool rest to the workpiece (see Adjusting Tool Rest on Page 23).
12. Before beginning lathe operation, rotate the
workpiece by hand to ensure that there is
safe clearance on all sides.
Keep the lathe tool resting on the tool
rest the ENTIRE time that it is in contact
with workpiece or when preparing to make
contact between lathe tool and workpiece.
Otherwise, the spinning workpiece could
force the lathe tool out of your hands or
entangle your hands with the workpiece.
Failure to heed this warning could result in
serious personal injury.

Spindle Turning Tips:
• When turning the lathe ON, stand away from
the path of the spinning workpiece until the
spindle reaches full speed and you can verify
that the workpiece will not come loose.
• Use the slowest speed when starting or stopping the lathe.
• Select the right speed for the size of workpiece
that you are turning (refer to Figure 28 on
Page 25).
• Keep the turning tool on the tool rest the
ENTIRE time that it is in contact with the
workpiece.
• Learn the correct techniques for each tool
you will use. If you are unsure about how to
use the lathe tools, read books or magazines
about lathe techniques, and seek training
from experienced and knowledgeable lathe
users.
Faceplate Turning
Faceplate Turning
Faceplate turning is when a workpiece is mounted
to the faceplate, which is then mounted to the
headstock spindle, as shown in Figure 39. This
type of turning is usually done with open-faced
workpieces like bowls or plates.
Figure 39. Typical faceplate turning operation.
Damage to your eyes and lungs could result
from using this machine without proper protective gear. Always wear a face shield and
respirator when operating this machine.
Mounting the Workpiece onto the
Faceplate
1. Mark the workpiece center in the same man-ner as described in Spindle Turning (see
Page 27).
Note: Cut off corners of the workpiece to make
it as close to "round" as possible as described
in Spindle Turning (see Page 27).
2. Center the faceplate on the workpiece and
attach it, as shown in Figure 40, with wood
screws that do not have tapered heads (see
Figure 41).
Model G0733 (Mfg. Since 10/11)
-29-
Page 32
Figure 40. Typical attachment of faceplate to
workpiece.
NOTICE
Only use screws with non-tapered heads
(see Figure 41) to attach the faceplate to
the workpiece. Screws with tapered heads
can split the faceplate or snap off during
operation.
Correct Incorrect
Mounting Workpiece to Backing
Block
1. Make the backing block from a suitable size
piece of scrap wood.
Note: The faces of the backing block must be
flat and parallel to each other, or the uneven
surfaces will cause the workpiece to spin
eccentricly, causing unnecessary vibration
and runout. It is best to mount the backing
block to the faceplate and turn the other surface flat prior to mounting.
2. Locate and mark the center of both the
workpiece and backing block.
1
3. Drill a
backing block.
4. Look through the hole in the backing block
to line up the center with the workpiece and
glue and clamp the backing block to the
workpiece.
Note: Allow the glue to cure according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
⁄4" hole through the center of the
Figure 41. Correct and incorrect screw types.
3. Thread and secure the faceplate onto the headstock spindle (refer to Headstock
Faceplate on Page 25 for faceplate mount-
ing instructions).
— If wood screws cannot be placed in the
workpiece, the faceplate can be mounted to a backing block attached to the
workpiece (see Mounting the Workpiece to a Backing Block).
-30-
5. Follow Steps 1–3 under Mounting the
Workpiece onto the Faceplate (see Page
33) to attach the backing block to the face-
plate.
Outboard Turning
Outboard turning is a variation of faceplate turning
and is accomplished with the headstock positioned
so the faceplate is not directly over the bed, allowing a larger turning capacity than the swing specification of the lathe. On the G0733, the maximum
workpiece diameter that can safely be outboardturned is limited to 17".
The only way to rotate the headstock on this
machine is to remove it from the bed first, which
can be a heavy and cumbersome task. A much
simpler alternative to removing the headstock
is to simply remove the tailstock and slide the
headstock to the other end of the bed. This will
position the spindle so it is not directly over the
bed whereby outboard turning can safely be
accomplished.
Model G0733 (Mfg. Since 10/11)
Page 33
To outboard turn on the Model G0733:
1. DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!
Sanding/Finishing
2. Remove the tailstock and tool base from the
machine by removing the hex nuts and clamp
washers located underneath the assemblies,
then lifting them from the lathe bed.
3. Loosen the headstock, then move it all the
way to the tail end of the lathe bed, as shown
in Figure 42.
Figure 42. Lathe prepared for outboard turning.
4. Re-tighten the headstock to the bed.
After the turning operations are complete,
the workpiece can be sanded and finished
before removing it from the lathe, as shown in
Figure 43.
Figure 43. Typical sanding operation.
Note: Whenever sanding or finishing, move the
tool rest holder out of the way to increase personal safety and gain adequate working room.
When outboard turning, ALWAYS use a floor
mounted tool rest and keep the tool in contact with the rest during all turning operations. Failure to do so could cause the tool
to be pulled out of the operator's control
and ejected at high speed.
Sandpaper
Workpiece
Wrapping the sandpaper completely around
the workpiece could pull
your hands into the moving workpiece and may
cause serious injury.
Never wrap sandpaper
or finishing materials
completely around the
workpiece.

Selecting Turning
Tools
Lathe tools come in a variety of shapes and sizes,
and usually fall into five major categories.
• Gouges—Mainly used for rough cutting,
detail cutting, and cove profiles. The rough
gouge is a hollow, double-ground tool with
a round nose, and the detail gouge is a hollow, double-ground tool with either a round or
pointed nose.
• Scrapers—Typically used where access for
other tools is limited, such as hollowing operations. This is a flat, double-ground tool that
comes in a variety of profiles (round nose,
spear point, square nose, etc.) to match
many different contours.
Figure 46. Example of a round nose scraper.
• Parting Tools—Used for sizing and cutting off work. This is a flat tool with a sharp
pointed nose that may be single- or doubleground.
Figure 44. Example of a gouge.
• Skew Chisel—A very versatile tool that can
be used for planing, squaring, V-cutting,
beading, and parting off. The skew chisel is
flat, double-ground with one side higher than
the other (usually at an angle of 20°–40°).
Figure 45. Example of a skew chisel.
Figure 47. Example of a parting tool.
• Specialty Tools—These are the unique,
special function tools to aid in hollowing, bowl
making, cutting profiles, etc. The Swan Neck
Hollowing Tool shown on Page 35 is a good
example of a speciality tool.

SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect power
to the machine before
performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may
result in serious personal injury.
Schedule
For optimum performance from your machine,
follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any
specific instructions given in this section.
Lathe Bed
Protect the unpainted cast iron lathe bed by using
a lightly oiled rag and wiping it clean after every
use—this ensures moisture from wood dust does
not remain on the bare metal surfaces.
Keep your lathe bed rust-free with regular applications of products like G96 Gun Treatment, SLIPIT,
or Boeshield T-9.
Lubrication
Ongoing:
• Loose faceplate or mounting bolts.
• Damaged center or tooling.
• Worn or damaged wires.
• Loose machine components.
• Any other unsafe condition.
Daily:
• Clean off dust buildup.
• Clean and lubricate lathe bed, spindle, and
quill.
Monthly:
• Belt tension, damage, or wear.
• Clean out dust buildup from inside belt/pulley
cavity.
Cleaning
All bearings for the Model G0733 are lubricated
and sealed at the factory, and do not need additional lubrication.
Wipe a lightly oiled shop rag on the outside of the
headstock spindle. DO NOT allow any oil to get on
the inside mating surfaces of the spindle.
Use the tailstock handwheel to extend the quill
out to the furthest position and apply a thin coat
of white grease to the outside of the quill. DO NOT
allow any oil or grease to get on the inside mating
surfaces of the quill.
Cleaning the Model G0733 is relatively easy.
Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and
wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any
resin has built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner
to remove it. Treat all unpainted cast iron and
steel with a non-staining lubricant after cleaning.
Remove and debris or oily substances from the
inside of the spindle and quill.
