1.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – To reduce risk of injury:
1. Read and understand the entire owner's
manual before attempting assembly or
operation.
2. Read and understand the warnings posted on
the machine and in this manual. Failure to
comply with all of these warnings may cause
serious injury.
3. Replace warning labels if they become
obscured or removed.
4. Familiarize yourself thoroughly with the
operation and safety instructions in your lathe
manual before using this taper attachment.
5. This lathe accessory is designed and intended
for use by properly trained and experienced
personnel only. If you are not familiar with the
proper and safe operation of a lathe, do not use
until proper training and knowledge have been
obtained.
6. Do not use this product for other than its
intended use. If used for other purposes, JET
disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds
itself harmless from any injury that may result
from that use.
7. Always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved safety
glasses or face shield while using this band
saw. (Everyday eyeglasses only have impact
resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.)
8. Before operating the lathe, remove tie, rings,
watches and other jewelry, and roll sleeves up
past the elbows. Do not wear loose clothing.
Confine long hair. Non-slip footwear or anti-skid
floor strips are recommended. Do not wear
gloves.
9. Wear ear protectors (plugs or muffs) if noise
exceeds safe levels.
10. CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:
This product contains chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer, or birth
defects or other reproductive harm.
11. This product, when used for welding, cutting, or
working with metal, produces fumes, gases, or
dusts which contain chemicals known to the
State of California to cause birth defects and, in
some cases, cancer. (California Health and
Safety Code Section 25249.5 et seq.)
12. Make certain the switch is in the OFF position
before connecting the machine to the power
supply.
13. Make certain the machine is properly grounded.
14. Make all machine adjustments or maintenance
with the machine unplugged from the power
source.
15. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form a
habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the machine
before turning it on.
16. Keep safety guards in place at all times when
the machine is in use. If removed for
maintenance purposes, use extreme caution
and replace the guards immediately after
completion of maintenance.
17. Check damaged parts. Before further use of the
machine, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it
will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting and any other conditions that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced.
18. Provide for adequate space surrounding work
area and non-glare, overhead lighting.
19. Keep the floor around the machine clean and
free of scrap material, oil and grease.
20. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work
area. Keep children away.
21. Make your workshop child proof with padlocks,
master switches or by removing starter keys.
22. Give your work undivided attention. Looking
around, carrying on a conversation and “horseplay” are careless acts that can result in serious
injury.
23. Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that
you do not fall or lean against moving parts. Do
not overreach or use excessive force to perform
any machine operation.
24. Use the right tool at the correct speed and feed
rate. Do not force a tool or attachment to do a
job for which it was not designed. The right tool
will do the job better and more safely.
25. Use recommended accessories; improper
accessories may be hazardous.
26. Maintain tools with care. Keep saw cutting tools
sharp and clean for the best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating
and changing accessories.

27. Turn off the machine before cleaning. Use a
brush or vacuum to remove chips or debris —
do not use bare hands.
28. Do not stand on the machine. Serious injury
could occur if the machine tips over.
29. Never leave the machine running unattended.
Turn the power off and do not leave the
machine until it comes to a complete stop.
30. Remove loose items and unnecessary work
pieces from the area before starting the
machine.
31. Do not attempt to adjust or remove tools during
operation.
32. Never stop a rotating chuck or workpiece with
your hands.
33. Choose a low spindle speed when working
unbalanced workpieces, and for threading and
tapping operations.
Familiarize yourself with the following safety notices used in this manual:
34. Do not exceed the maximum speed of the
workholding device.
35. Do not exceed the clamping capacity of the
chuck.
36. Workpieces longer than 3 times the chucking
diameter must be supported by the tailstock or
a steady rest.
37. Avoid small chuck diameters with large turning
diameters.
38. Avoid short chucking lengths and small
chucking contact.
39. Do not operate the lathe in flammable or
explosive environments. Do not use in a damp
environment or expose to rain.
This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in minor injury and/or possible
machine damage.
This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in serious, or possibly even fatal,
injury.
