Turn spindle direction switch shown in Figure
19 to "FOR" (forward) position. The spindle
should rotate counterclockwise—down and
toward front of lathe.
The machine should run smoothly with little to
no vibration or rubbing noises.

machine from power when investigating or
correcting potential problems.
10. Press Emergency Stop button to turn lathe
OFF and stop spindle rotation. Then, with-

restart spindle rotation by rotating spindle
direction switch all the way clockwise and
then counterclockwise. The spindle should
not start if the Emergency Stop button is
working correctly.
—If spindle does start with Emergency Stop
button pressed in, the button is not operat-
ing correctly. To reduce the risk of injury,
this safety feature must operate prop-
erly before further using the machine. Turn
spindle direction switch OFF to stop lathe,
disconnect lathe from power, and call Tech
Support for help.
