Grounding Instructions
This tool must be grounded
while in use to protect the operator from
electric shock.
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding prov i des a path of least resistanc e f or
electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug m ust be plugged into a
matching outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accord ance wit h all l ocal codes and
ordinances.
Do not modify the pl ug provided. If it will not fit
the outlet , have the proper outlet i nstalled by a
qualified elec trician.
Improper connection of the equipmentgrounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. The conductor, with insulation
having an outer surface that is green with or
without yellow stripes, is the equipmentgrounding conduct or. If repair or replacement of
the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the equipment-gr ounding conductor t o a
live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in doubt as to
whether the tool is properl y grounded. Use onl y
three wire ex tension cords that have three-pr ong
grounding plugs and t hree-pole recept acles that
accept the tool ’s pl ug.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord
immediately.
115 Volt Operation
As received from the factory, your sander is
ready to run at 115-volt oper ation. This sander,
when wired for 115 v olts, is intended f or use on
a circuit that has an outlet and a pl ug that l ooks
the one illustrated in Figure A. A temporary
adapter, which looks like the adapter as
illustrat ed in Figure B, may be used to connect
this plug to a two-pole receptacle, as shown in
Figure B if a properly grounded outlet is not
available.
must be connect ed to a permanent ground such
as a properly gr ounded outlet box, as shown in
Figure B.
The use of an extension cord is not
recommended. However, if you must use one
make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. Be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your machine will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in the line
voltage resul ting in power loss and ov erheating.
The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on the cord length needed and the
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge. Remember, the small er the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet
120V 25 50 100 150
AWG
12-16A 14 12 Not Recommended
230 Volt Operation
If 230V, single-phase operation is desired, the
following inst r uc tions must be followed:
1. Disconnect the mac hine from the power
source.
2. This lathe is supplied with four motor leads
that are connected for 115V operation, as
shown in Figure A. Reconnect these four
motor leads f or 230V operation, as shown in
Figure B.
2. The 115V att achment plug (A ), supplied with
the lathe, must be replaced with a UL/CSA
listed plug suitable for 230V operation (D).
Contact your l ocal A uthoriz ed Service Center
or qualified electrician for proper procedures
to install the plug. The lathe must comply with
all local and nati onal codes after the 230-volt
plug is installed.
3. The lathe wit h a 230 volt plug should only be
connected configuration (D). No adapter is
available or should be used with the 230-v olt
plug.
Important: In all cases (115 or 230 v olt s), m ak e
certain the receptacle in question is properly
grounded. If you are not sure, have a regi stered
electrici an c hec k the rec eptacle.
The temporary adapter should only be used until
a properly grounded outl et can be instal led by a
qualified electrician. This adapter is not
applicable in Canada. The green colored rigi d

Lathe Tools
If possible, select only high quality, high speed
steel turning tools with long handles. As one
becomes profici ent in turning, a variety of speci alty
tools for specifi c applications can be acquir ed. The
following tools provide the basics for most
woodturning projects.
Roughing Gouge — used for rapidly cut raw wood
into round stock , see Figure 10.
Deep Fluted Bowl Gouge — used for turning
bowls and plates, see Figure 10.
Spindle Gouge — used for turning beads, coves
and other details, see Figure 10.
Spear — fine scraping and delicate operations,
such as the for ming of beads, par allel grooves and
shallow vees, etc , see Figure 10.
1. With a ruler locate and mark the center on each
end by going corner t o corner, see Figur e 12.
Accuracy is not critical on full rounds but
extremely important on stock where square
sections are to remain. Put a dimple in each
end of the stock wit h an awl or nail.
2. Extremely hard woods may require kerfs cut
into the spur driv e end of stock, see Fi gure 12.
You may need to dr iv e the spur center i nto the
stock with a wood mallet. Note: Never drive
stock onto spur while it is mounted in the lathe
spindle.
3. Install workpiece by i nserting the att ached spur
center into t he spi ndle taper on the headstock.
4. Bri ng tailstock into posi tion, lock it t o the bed,
and advance qui ll with the hand wheel in order
to seat the live cent er into the workpiece. Lock
the quill in place. Make sure the live center
point is centered on y our m ark.
5. Move tool rest into position. It should be
parallel to workpiece, approximately at the
centerline, and approximately 1/8" from the
closest part of the workpiece. Lock tool rest
body and tool rest in plac e.
Figure 10
Skew — used to make vees, beads, etc., see
Figure 11.
Square Scraper — used for diamet er scraping and
featureless scraping, etc, see Figure 11.
Large Domed Scraper — used to reduce ridges
on the interi or of bowls, r ound edge s of bo wls, etc,
see Figure 11.
Parting Tool — used to cut directly into the
material, or to make a cut off. Also used for
scraping and to set di am eters, see Figure 11.
For safety and best performance, keep tools
sharp. If a t ool stops cutti ng, or requires ex cessive
pressure to mak e a cut, it needs to be sharpened.
A number of brand name sharpening jigs and
fixtures are available, however, a wood turner
should learn to sharpen t ools freehand.
Mounting Workpiece Bet ween Centers
6. Rotat e workpiece by hand t o check for proper
clearance f rom tool rest. Note: You may want
to trim off the cor ners of a square workpiec e to
make turning a little easier.
7. Start lathe at lowest speed and bring it up to
the appropriat e RPM for the size of stock, see
Figure 6 page 11.
The position of the tool rest can be varied to suit
the work and operator. After you become
experienced with setting tool rest changing the
position will become second nature for the
workpiece and comfort of the user.

Operations
Stock Selection
Stock for spindles should be straight grained and
free of checks, cracks, knots and other defects. It
should be cut 1/8" to 1/4" larger than the finished
diameter and may require additional length to
remove ends if requir ed. Larger stock should have
the corners removed to produce an octagon
making the piece easier to rough down to a
cylinder, see Figur e 13.
Roughing Out
1. Use a large r oughing gouge and begin cutting
about 2” from the tailstock end of the
workpiece. Pl ace the tool on the tool rest with
the heel of the tool on the surf ac e to be cut.
2. Slowly and gent ly rai se tool handle until cutti ng
edge comes into contact with the workpiece.
Work to the right towards the end of the
workpiece. You nev er want to start at the end
of a workpiece.
3. Now continue t o work t he r est of the workpiec e.
Roll the fl ute (hollowed-out port ion) of the tool
in the dir ection of the cut , see Figur e 14. Make
long sweeping cuts in a continuous motion to
rough the piece down to a cylinder. Keep as
much of the bevel of the tool as possible in
contact with the workpiece to ensure control
and avoid catc hes.
Note: Always cut downhill, or from large
diameter to small diameter. Always work
toward the end of a workpiece, never start
cutting at the end.
Figure 13
Figure 14
4. Once the workpiece is roughed down to a
cylinder, smoot h it with a l arge ske w. Pl ace t he
cutting poi nt near the center of the chisel and
high on the workpiec e, see Figure 15. Touching
one of the points of the skew to the spinning
workpiece may cause a catch and ruin the
workpiece.
5. Add det ail s to t he workpiec e with ske w, spi ndle
gouge, etc.
Figure 15
13
Beads
1. Place the par ting tool on the tool rest and m ove
the tool forward to make the full bevel of the
tool contac t the workpiece. Gently r aise handle
to make cut to the appropriate depth.
2. Repeat for other si de of t he bead.
3. Using a small skew or spindle gouge, start in
the center bet ween the t wo cuts and cut d own
each side to form the bead. Roll the tool in
direction of cut.
Coves
1. Use a spindle gouge. Wit h the flute of the tool
at 90 degrees to the workpiece, touch the
center of the cutti ng edge to t he workpiece and
roll in towards the bottom of the cove. Stop at
the bottom; attempting to go up the opposite
side may cause the tool t o catc h.
2. Move the tool over the desired width of the
cove.
3. With the flute facing the opposite direction,
repeat step 1 for other side of cove. Stop at
bottom of cut.
Parting
Place part ing tool on t ool rest and raise the handle
until it starts to cut and continue to cut to the
desired depth.
If the cut is deep a clearance cut should be made
alongside the first cut to prevent the tool tip from
burning.
Figure 16
“V” Cuts
1. Use the long point of the skew. Note: Do not
press the long poi nt of the skew directly into the
workpiece to create the "V"; this will result in a
burned or burnished " V" wit h fi bers being r olled
up at both sides.
2. Li ghtly m ark t he cent er of t he "V " with the t ip of
the skew.
3. Mov e the point of the skew to the ri ght half of
the desired width of y our cut .
4. With the bevel parallel to the right side of the
cut, raise the handl e and push the tool i n to the
desired depth.
5. Repeat from the left side. The two cut s should
meet at the bottom and leave a clean "V" cut.
6. Additional cuts may be taken to add to either
the depth or width of t he cut.
Figure 17
Figure 18
14
Sanding and Finishing
Leaving clean cuts will reduce the amount of
sanding required. Begi n wit h a fi ne sandpaper (1 20
grit or finer). Coarser sandpaper will leave deep
scratches that are dif ficult t o remove, and dull crisp
details. Fold t he sandpaper i nto a p ad; do not wrap
sandpaper around your fingers or the workpiece.
To apply a f inish, the workpiece can be l eft on t he
lathe. Turn off lathe and use a brush, or cloth to
apply the finish. Remove excess finish before
restarting lathe. Allow drying and sanding again
with 320 or 400 grit sandpaper. Apply additional
coats of fini sh and buff.
Face Plate and Bowl Turning
Face plate t urning is normally done on the inboard
side of the headst ock over the bed see Figure 19.
You must pivot the headstock 180° for larger
workpieces.
Mounting Stoc k
Use of a face plate i s the most comm on method for
holding a block of wood for turning bowls, and
plates.
Figure 19
1. Sel ect stock at least 1/8" to 1/ 4" larger than t he
dimension on the desi r ed finished workpiece.
2. True one surface of t he workpiece for m ounting
against the fac e plate. It is best to leave ext ra
stock against the f aceplate that can be cut off
when the workpiece i s finished.
3. Using the faceplate as a template, mark the
location of the mounting holes, and drill pilot
holes of the appropriate size. If the mounting
screws on the faceplate interfere with the
workpiece, a waste block can be mounted to
the faceplate and then the waste block
mounted to t he workpiece by gl uing or screwing, see Figure 20.
4. Both waste block and workpiece should have
good flat surf ac es.
5. Push in on the spindle lock and thread face
plate and workpiece onto the spindle. Tighten
setscrews in the f ac eplate when secure.
Figure 20
15
Face Plate or Chuck
Tools for Bowl Turning
While faceplates are the simplest, most reliable
method of holding a block of wood for turning,
chucks can also be used. A chuck is not a
requirement but is handy when working on more
than one piece at a time. Rather than removing
screws, you simply open the chuck and change
workpieces. The most popular ones are four jaw
scroll chucks with a variety of jaws to
accommodate different size tenons. Most also
come with a screw chuck as well.
Wood Selection
Firewood is the cheapest, most widely available
stock to use whil e learning to tur n bowls. Develop
skill with each tool before attempting to make a
finished piece. It is best to start with dry wood,
without worrying about drying or distortion. Once
turning becomes comfortable, try green wood,
which cuts very easily. As the turner gains
experience, he or she will find extraordinary grain
and figure in the form of burls, crotches and bark
inclusions.
Checks and Cracks
Green wood will check and crack. F or best res ults,
leave logs i n as long lengths as you can handle. As
the material starts to dry, surface cracks will
develop on t he ends of t he l og. Cut off t wo to three
inches and you should find good, sound wood.
Also, cut the log in half along the pith to avoid
having it in t he finished piece. Most check s radiate
from the pi th. As you turn bo wls from green wood,
make sure you mai ntain a c onsistent wal l t hickness
throughout the piece. Leaving a piece thick in some
areas and thin in others wil l cause the wood to dry
unevenly and promote checks and cracks.
Distortion
Distortion is a problem associated with turning
green wood. It will vary from one type of wood to
the next. Typic ally, fruitwoods tend to distort m ore
than others do. It also varies wit h the time of year
the tree was cut and how the logs are stored.
The deep fluted bowl gouge is the most essential
and versati le tool f or most bowl and f aceplat e style
turning. The bowl gouge is heavier and easier to
control than other types of gouges. It also allows
removal of wood much faster and with less
vibration than other gouges. Most average sized
bowl work can be accom plished with a 3/8" or 1/2"
bowl gouge. A 1/4" bowl gouge is best suited for
smaller bowls and light finishing cuts. Larger 3/4"
and 1" bowl gouges are only used for extremely
large pieces.
Large domed scrapers can also be used to help
clean up the i nter ior surfaces of bowls. A li ght touch
with the scraper slightly tilted will eliminate some of
the ridges left by a bowl gouge.
16
To Shape the Outside of a Bowl
Odd shaped burls, crotches and other irregular
shaped blanks require special preparation before
mounting in a chuc k, or onto a faceplate.
1. Remove the bark, if there is any, from what
appears to be the center of the top of
workpiece.
2. Drive the spur center into the top of the
workpiece with a wood mallet.
3. Slip the spur center into the headstock taper
and bring the tailstock, with a live center, into
position. Lock the tailstock to the bed and
advance the spindle in order to seat the cup
center into workpiece, see Figure 21. Tighten
the quill lock.
4. Position the tool support below the centerline
and about 1/4" from the workpiece. Note: For
larger outboard turning, an optional outboard
turning stand i s used to place the tool support,
see your JET distri butor.
5. Turn the workpiece by hand to ensure proper
clearance.
6. Start t he lathe at the lowest speed and bri ng it
up to the maximum safe speed for t he size of
work to be turned, see Figure 6 on page 11. If
the machine star ts to vibrate, lower the speed
until the vibration stops.
7. Rough out the out side of the bowl with t he 1/2"
deep fluted bowl gouge, holding the tool firmly
against your hip. For best control, use your
whole body to move the gouge through the
workpiece.
8. As the bowl takes shape, work on the bottom
(tailstock end) to accommodate attaching a
face plate, see Figur e 21.
9. Turn a short t enon (about 1/8" l ong) the size of
the hole in the faceplate, see Figure 21. This
will allow centering the workpiece when the
faceplate is attached. Note: If y ou plan to use a
chuck, turn a tenon of appropriate length and
diameter to fit your chuck.
10. Stop the lathe, remove the workpiece and
attach the face plate, or chuck.
11. F inish turning t he outside of t he bowl wit h 1/2"
or 3/8" bowl gouge. Leave additional material at
the base of the bowl for support while turning
the interior. This will be removed later.
Figure 21
17
To Shape the Interior of a Bowl
Sanding and Finishing a Bowl
1. Stop the lathe and move the tailstock away.
Remove the center from the tailstock to prevent
bumping it wit h your elbow.
2. Adjust the tool support in front of the bowl just
below the centerline, at a right angle to the
lathe bed.
3. Rotate the workpiece by hand to check the
clearance.
4. Fac e off the top of t he bowl by making a li ght
shearing cut acro ss the workpi ece, fr om rim to
center.
5. Place the 1/2" bowl gouge on the tool rest at
the center of the workpi ece with t he flut e facing
the top of the bowl. The tool handle should be
level and pointed toward four o'clock, see
Figure 22.
6. Use your lef t hand to control the cut ting edge of
the gouge, while your right hand swings the
tool handle around towards your body, see
Figure 22.
The flut e should start out fac ing the top of the
workpiece, and rotate upward as it moves
deeper into the bowl to maintain a clean ev en
curve.
As the tool goes deeper into bowl,
progressively work out toward the rim. It may
be necessary to turn the tool rest into the
workpiece, as you get deeper into the bowl.
Note: Try to make one, very light continuous
movement from the rim to the bottom of the
bowl to ensure a clean, sweeping curve
through the workpi ece. Should there be a f ew
small ridges rem aining, a light cut with a large
domed scraper can even out the surface.
1. Remove the t ool rest and begin with a f ine grit
sandpaper (120 grit) and progress through
each grit, using only light pressure.
Coarser sandpaper tends to leave deep
scratches that are hard to eliminate. Use
power-sanding techniques to avoid concentric
sanding marks around your finished piece.
Avoid rounding over the rim and foot with
sandpaper. Try to keep the detail s crisp. Finish
sanding with 220 grit.
2. Remove sanding dust with tack rags, or
compressed air and, with the lathe turned off,
apply the first coat of finish. Let it stand for
several minut es and wipe off the excess. Al low
it to dry before sanding agai n with 320 or 400
grit sandpaper.
3. Turn lat he back on and mak e a separati on cut
through the base. Stop at about 3" and use a
small fi ne tooth saw to sep arate the bo wl from
the waste.
4. Apply additional finish coats and allow to dry
before buffing.
7. Develop the wall thickness at the rim and
maintain it as you work deeper into the bowl.
When the interior is finished, move the tool
support to the exterior to re-define the bottom
of the bowl. General rule of thumb: the base
should be approximately 1/3 the overall
diameter of t he bowl.
8. Work the tight area around the faceplate or
chuck with 1/4" bowl gouge.
Figure 22

Adjustments
Adjusting the Clamping Mechanism
The clamps are pre-set at the factory and should
not need any adjustm ent . However , if adj ustment is
needed, remov e the stud (A, Fig. 23). Loosen the
locking handl e and slide the headstoc k, tail stock or
tool rest t o the edge of the bed and sli ghtly turn the
hex nut (B, Fig. 23). Slide back into position and
test the handle to mak e sure it securely locks.
Changing the Belt and Bearings
Changing belt and beari ngs can be a difficult task,
and should be performed by a JET authorized
repair station. Remove headstock and take into a
repair station for servicing.
1. Place the belt in its highest speed range. Do
not change speeds while changing t he belt or
bearings.
2. Remove the belt cover, and remove the belt
from the lower pulley , see Figure 24.
3. Loosen the two setscrews in the handwheel
enough to unthread the handwheel (C, Fig. 24).
4. Loosen t he socket head cap scre w enough to
unthread the clamping nut (D, Fig. 24).
5. Remove one e-ring ( E, Fig. 24) fr om spindle.
6. Loosen the two setscrews in the right hand
pulley (F, Fi g. 24).
7. Use a wood do wel, or al uminum stock to knoc k
the spindle towards the tailstock. Use a
material that is softer than the spindle so you
do not mushroom the end of the spindle. Go
only far enough to rem ove the right hand pull ey
and belt from spindle, see Figure 25 when
changing the bel t. Note: Mark the key way on
the pulley for easy reference when
reassembling.
Figure 23
Figure 24
8. Now you can replace the belt or bearings.
There are three beari ngs #6, 9 and 43 t hat can
be seen in the “Headstock Assembly,” on
page 25.
9. To reassemble reverse the procedure. Note:
Key way ali gnment is cri tical for installment and
proper operati on. Do not force the pull ey. When
reinstalling clamping nut thread it on to the
spindle until its snug. Then back off sl ightl y and
tighten the socket head c ap screw.

1. Mount the guard bracket (A) to the headstock
with two 3/8” flat washers, two 3/8” lock
washers and t wo 3/8”-16 x 1-1/2” socket head
cap screws (B).
2. Attach the guard (C) to the guard bracket by
inserting the rod and lifting up on the plunger
(D).
3. There are two detents that will hold the guard in
place. One is for turning and the other is for
when you need the guard up and out of the
way. Simply lift up on the plunger and rotate
the guard until the plunger slips into the detent.
Tighten the bushings (E) against the bracket with
two setscrews (F) .
Tool Basket
Referring to Fi gur e 27:
1. Mount the br acket (A ) to the i nside of the lathe
leg with two 5/16”- 18 x 1-1/2” Hex Socket Cap
Screws, four 5/16” flat washers and two 5/16”
hex nuts (B).
2. The two setscrews, on the bracket should be
below the bolts and accessible for adjustment.
3. Place the arm of the tool basket into the
bracket and tighten with a 5/16”-18 x 5/8” set
screw and a 5/16” hex nut (C). Line up the
notch in the ar m wit h the setscrews so t he tool
basket can pivot.
4. Adjust the set screws on the bracket so that the
tool basket swings in a level manner. Tighten
the two hex socket cap screws.

Appendix – Indexer Positions
How to use the chart
A diagram of the indexer is shown at right, as
viewed from the tailstock end of the Lathe.
Points A, B and C are the holes in the head
casting. T he holes in the spindle coll ar may be
considered as numbered 1 t hr ough 12.
Example: You wish to rout 9 flutes on your
spindle blank. Locate the “9” in the “No. of
Flutes” colum n; each f l ute angl e will be 40°. The
index pin should first be inserted into hole
combination “A-1”. Make your first flute at this
position. Back off the index pin and rotate the
spindle until the index pin can be inserted into
hole combination “A-5”; this will be followed by
“A-9”. Succeeding flutes will be made with the
index pin in the B position: “B-3”, “B-7” and so
on
No. of Flute s

NOTE: A dashed line indicates that particular s et of angles is not possible with the indexer .
* For 8 or 24 flutes, perform the first sequence, then rotate the workpiece by hand to the needed posit ion and repeat
the same sequence.
