WARNING! Do not operate your wood lathe until it is completely assembled and installed
according to the instructions.
1. For your own safety, read the entire instruction manual before operating the lathe.
2. Always wear eye protection.
3. Do not wear gloves, necktie, or loose clothing.
4. Tighten all locks before operating.
5. Do not mount a split workplace.
6. Use the lowest speed when starting a new workpiece.
7. Read the warning label attached to the wood lathe.
8. When turning a workpiece, always rough the wood to round form please stop wood lathe at
slow speed. If the lathe is run so fast that it vibrates, there is a risk that the workplace will be
thrown or the tool jerked from your hands.
9. Always rotate the workplace by hand before turning on the lathe. If the workpiece strikes the
tool rest, it could split and be thrown out of the lathe.
10. Do not allow the turning tools to bite into the wood. The wood could split or be thrown from
the lathe.
11. Always position the tool rest above the centerline of the lathe when shaping a piece of stock.
12. Do not operate the lathe if it is rotating in the wrong direction.
The workpiece must always be rotating toward you.
13. Before attaching a workpiece to the faceplate, always rough it out to make it as round as
possible, this minimizes the vibrations while the piece is being turned. Always fasten the
workpiece securely to the faceplate, failure to do this could result in the workpiece being thrown
away from the lathe.
14. Position your hands so that they will not slip onto the workpiece.
15. Remove all loose knobs in the stock before mounting between the centers or on the
faceplate.
