Eye protection equipment should comply with ANSI Z87.1 standards, hearing equipment should comply with ANSI S3.19 standards, and dust mask protection should comply with MSHA/NIOSH certified respirator standards. 7. DO NOT WEAR TIE, GLOVES, or loose clothing. REMOVE WATCH, RINGS, and other jewelry. ROLL UP SLEEVES. 8. USE THE GUARDS WHENEVER POSSIBLE. Check to see that they are in place, secured, and working correctly. 9. ROUGH CUT THE WORKPIECE as close as possible to the finished shape befor

Be careful not to allow full edge of the chisel to catch and cause a run. Vee grooves can also be made with the toe of the skew, in the same manner as squaring an end. Fig. 51 Fig. 52 Fig. 53 Fig. 54 LONG CUTS Long cuts are usually either convex or straight-tapered surfaces. With a convex surface, the method used in making the finishing cut is shown in Figs. 52. The gouge is turned on the tool rest so that it will be inclined in the direction that it will move. The grind is tangent to the work,

To attach the leg inserts to the pedestals, place one side in the hole provided and gently tap the other side, top, and bottom with a rubber mallet (B) Fig. 10. Attach the Headstock (D) Fig. 11, Tool Rest (E), and Tailstock (F) to the lathe bed (G). Notice the tool and centers storage areas located at (H), and bracket

The control is still energized as long as the power switch is on. NOTE: To lock the spindle or to utilize the indexing feature, pull the spindle lock pin (A) Fig. 25 out and rotate the pin clockwise. Re-engage it in the pulley holes (B) Fig. 25, some of which are shown. The spindle pulley has 24 holes accurately spaced around the rim of the pulley. This feature makes it possible to make evenly spaced divisions on turnings which could be fluted, grooved, or to mark places to be drilled. CHANGING

After cleaning, cover the unpainted surfaces with a good quality paste wax. FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT CONNECT THE TOOL TO THE POWER SOURCE UNTIL THE TOOL IS COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED, AND YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND THE ENTIRE OWNER’S MANUAL.

Cutting beads quickly and accurately with the small skew is one of the most difficult lathe operations. Various working methods can be used . The first cut is a vertical incision at the point where the two curved surfaces will eventually come together. Make this cut with either heel or toe of skew. Fig. 47 shows the use of the toe. Place the skew at right angles to the work . The chisel is flat on its side at the start, and is evenly rotated through the successive stages of the cut (Figs. 48, 49

Once a cylindrical form has been obtained, you can change the turning speed to the second or third speed setting. NOTE: Continue to move the tool rest inward toward the work piece to keep the safe distance between the two. POSITION OF HANDS While turning, the hand that holds the tool handle should be in a natural position. This hand provides the leverage for the tool by either moving in toward the workpiece or moving out. The position of the tool rest hand is more a matter of individual preferen

However, the parting tool is a rough cutter, so that ultimately the skew must be used in cleaning the cut. The whole operation can be done with the skew, and this technique is illustrated by the drawings in Figs. 49, 50 and 51. The first movement is a nicking cut with the toe of the skew, as shown in Fig, 49. This cut cannot be made very deep without danger of burning the chisel, so a clearance cut is made by inclining the skew away from the first cut and again pushing the tool into the work. Th

Instructions on setting the spur center into the workpiece are found in the “OPERATION” section of this manual. Fig. 29 TAILSTOCK LIVE CENTER The tailstock live center (A) Fig. 31, supplied with your lathe, is equipped with a No. 2 Morse Taper shank and is inserted into the tailstock spindle (B), as shown.
