warNiNG! disconnect the lathe from the mains power before changing accessories, servicing or performing any maintenance.
9 maintain the lathe in good condition (use an authorised service agent to service and maintain the motor).
9 replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
warNiNG! Keep all guards and holding screws in place, tight and in good working order. check regularly for damaged parts.
9 locate lathe in a suitable work area. Keep area clean and tidy, free from unrelated materials and ensure that there is adequate lighting.
9 Keep the lathe clean for best and safest performance and check moving parts alignment regularly.
9 Keep turning tools clean and sharp for best and safest performance.
9 ensure that there are no flammable or combustible materials near the work area.
warNiNG! Always wear approved eye or face protection when operating the lathe (standard spectacles are not adequate). Wear
approved ear defenders and use a face or dust mask if dust is generated.
9 Keep hands and body clear when operating the lathe. do Not reach across the lathe.
9 maintain correct balance and footing. ensure the floor is not slippery and wear non-slip shoes.
9 Remove ill fitting clothing. Remove ties, watches, rings and other loose jewellery and contain and/or tie back long hair.
9 Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the work area.
9 remove all wrenches, hex keys etc. from the lathe and its vicinity before turning it on.

1.3. wood cUttiNG SaFetY
9 remove all loose wood knots before mounting workpiece on the lathe.
9 Fasten the workpiece securely to the faceplate or between centres before turning on the lathe. Wrong set-up procedures may
cause the workpiece to be thrown from the lathe, which may cause personal injury.
9 to confirm that the workpiece will not hit any part of the lathe always rotate it by hand before turning on the motor.
9 rough out a workpiece to be as true and round as possible before attaching to the faceplate. this will minimise vibration.
9 initially turn “out of round” workpieces at a slow speed. running the lathe too fast will cause vibration, which may result in the
workpiece being thrown from the lathe, or the tool to be pulled from your hand.
9 Avoid awkward hand positions, care must be taken to stop your hands from slipping onto the rotating workpiece.
9 Keep a firm control of the cutting tool. care must be exercised when wood knots or voids are exposed to the turning tool.
9 complete any hand sanding before removing the workpiece from the lathe. ensure that the lathe speed during sanding does not
exceed the speed used for the last cutting operation performed on that same workpiece.
8 do Not store, or lay, work tools in such a way that you must reach over the lathe, or the workpiece, to select them. Hang or
store the turning tools at the tail stock end of the lathe.
8 do Not allow the tool to “bite” into the workpiece as the wood may split, or be thrown from the lathe.
9 for spindle turning, always position the tool rest above the centre line of the lathe. do Not apply the turning tool to the workpiece
below the level of the rest itself.
8 do Not run the lathe in the wrong direction. this could cause the turning tool to be thrown from your hands. the workpiece surface
must be moving downwards past the tool rest.
warNiNG! do Not remount a workpiece if the original centres of the workpiece have been altered or removed. Having remounted a
workpiece where No alteration has been made to the original centres, the lathe must be set to the lowest speed before turning it
on.
8 do Not mount a workpiece that contains splits, checks or loose knots.
8 do Not switch on the lathe whilst the tool is in contact with the workpiece.
warNiNG! Keep alert. do Not allow familiarity (from frequent use) to cause a mistake. remember, a careless second is sufficient to
inflict serious damage and/or personal injury.
warNiNG! the warnings, cautions and instructions in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that
may occur. it must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product,
but must be applied by the operator.
