Specific Safety Instructions for Wood turning Lathes
1. Do not use 'split' work pieces.
2. Always start at the lowest speed when starting a new task.
3. Check that the tool rest is at or slightly below the centre line
of the work piece.
4. Check the work piece is securely mounted in the lathe before
switching on the power.
5. Rotate the work piece by hand, to check that it is centralised,
clear of the tool rest, not 'split' or has loose knots.
6. Where lathes have the facility to be reversed; check the
machine is rotating in the correct
direction.
7. If your lathe has the facility to run in reverse, you must ensure

that the mounting accessories (chucks, faceplates etc.,) can
be 'locked' onto the lathe mandrel, and in the case of chucks,
have some form of security device to prevent them 'unwinding'
during reverse operation.
8. Make sure your tools are stored/racked away from the
turning area of the lathe. Do not reach over a rotating work
piece at any time.
9. Do not 'dig in' or try to take too large a cut.
10. Do not leave the lathe running unattended; or leave the
machine until everything is stopped.
11. Some turning tools may have specific sharpening angles
that have been determined by the manufacturers; when
re-sharpening, adhere to these angles to maximise the finish
of your work.
