This manual provides critical safety instructions on the proper setup, operation, maintenance, and service of this machine/tool. Save this document, refer to it often, and use it to instruct other operators.

Failure to read, understand and follow the instructions in this manual may result in fire or serious personal injury—including amputation, electrocution, or death.

The owner of this machine/tool is solely responsible for its safe use. This responsibility includes but is not limited to proper installation in a safe environment, personnel training and usage authorization, proper inspection and maintenance, manual availability and comprehension, application of safety devices, cutting/sanding/grinding tool integrity, and the usage of personal protective equipment.

The manufacturer will not be held liable for injury or property damage from negligence, improper training, machine modifications or misuse.

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints.

• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: Work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT INJURY RISKS. You can

be shocked, burned, or killed by touching live

machinery. To reduce this risk, only allow an electrician or qualified service personnel to do electrical installation or repair work, and always disconnect power before accessing or exposing electrical equipment.

DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. Always disconnect

machine from power supply BEFORE making adjustments, changing tooling, or servicing machine. This eliminates the risk of injury from unintended startup or contact with live electrical components.

EYE PROTECTION. Always wear ANSI-approved

safety glasses or a face shield when operating or observing machinery to reduce the risk of eye injury or blindness from flying particles. Everyday eyeglasses are not approved safety glasses.

DUST. Dust created while using

SAFETY

machinery may cause cancer, birth defects, or long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust hazards associated with each workpiece material, and always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to reduce your risk.

Always wear hearing protection when operating or observing loud machinery. Extended exposure to this noise without hearing protection can cause permanent hearing loss.

Tools left on machinery can become dangerous projectiles upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches, or any other tools on machine. Always verify removal before starting!

Only use machine for its intended purpose—never make modifications without prior approval from Woodstock International. Modifying machine or using it differently than intended will void the warranty and may result in malfunction or mechanical failure that leads to serious personal injury or death!

Keep proper footing and balance at all times when operating machine. Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions that make workpiece control difficult or increase the risk of accidental injury.

Keep children and bystanders at a safe distance from the work area. Stop using machine if they become a distraction.

Additional Safety for Wood Lathes

workpiece; death, blindness, or broken bones from being struck by a workpiece that breaks apart or comes loose during rotation, turning tool kickback, or flying wood chips. To minimize your risk of these hazards, always heed the following warning information:

Verify each workpiece is free of knots, splits, nails, or foreign material to ensure it can safely rotate on spindle without breaking apart or causing turning tool kickback.

Before mounting, cut off waste portions with a bandsaw or other tool to ensure workpiece has no large edges to catch turning tool, and it will rotate without dangerous wobbling.

Verify tool rest, headstock,

and tailstock are secure before turning lathe ON.

An improperly secured workpiece can fly off spindle with deadly force. Use proven setup techniques and always verify workpiece is well-secured before starting lathe. Only use high-quality fasteners with nontapered heads for faceplate attachment.

may be grabbed or ejected. Adjust tool rest approximately

ADJUSTMENTS/MAINTENANCE. Make sure wood

MEASURING WORKPIECE. Only measure

workpiece after it has stopped. Trying to measure a spinning workpiece increases entanglement risk.

SANDING/POLISHING. To reduce entanglement risk, remove tool rest before sanding. Never completely wrap sandpaper around workpiece.

Glossary of Terms

The following is a list of common definitions, terms and phrases used throughout this manual as they relate to this wood lathe and woodworking in general. Become familiar with these terms for assembling, adjusting or operating this machine.

Bed: The long, rail-like metal base to which the tailstock, tool base, and headstock are attached.

SAFETY

Chuck: A mechanical device that attaches to the spindle and holds the workpiece.

Faceplate: The metal disc that threads onto the headstock spindle.

Faceplate Turning: Turning situation in which the grain of the turning stock is at right angles to the lathe bed axis.

Backing Block: A sacrificial piece of wood glued to the base of the workpiece and screwed to the faceplate. Often used to prevent mounting marks from appearing on the completed workpiece.

Headstock: The cast metal box to which the motor is attached and contains the spindle, bearings, belts, and electrical components for operating the lathe.

Index Head: The mechanism that allows the headstock spindle to be locked at specific intervals for layout or other auxiliary tasks.

Roughing Out: Taking stock from square billet to round blank.

Spindle: This term has two meanings. First, it refers to the threaded shaft in the headstock to which the faceplate is attached. Second, it refers to any work that is spindle-turned.

Spindle-Turning: Work performed where the grain and length of the workpiece are parallel to the axis of the bed.

Swing: The capacity of the lathe, measured by doubling the distance from the bed to the spindle cent er.

Tailstock: The metal component at the opposite end of the bed from the headstock containing a quill and live or dead centers. It maintains pressure on the spindle-turned workpiece.

Tool Base: The movable metal fixture attached to the bed upon which the tool rest is fixed.

Tool Rest: The adjustable metal arm upon which the tool rests during a turning operation.

Offset Turning: A turning situation where the center of the workpiece is offset at various stages of the work to produce different shapes.

Outboard Turning: Turning of workpiece with the headstock situated at the far end of the lathe so the work done is not over the bed of the lathe.

Way: One of the metal rails that make up the bed of the lathe.

This machine must be connected to the correct size and type of power supply circuit, or fire or electrical damage may occur. Read through this section to determine if an adequate power supply circuit is available. If a correct circuit is not available, a qualified electrician MUST install one before you can connect the machine to power.

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 fullload 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.)

This machine is prewired to operate on a power supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets the following requirements:
