Site Considerations

fLoor Load
Your G2891, when mounted to your wood lathe,
represents a large weight load in a small foot-
print. Be sure that the floor in your work area is
adequately reinforced to support the weight of the
lathe and copy attachment.
WorKInG CLearanCeS
Working clearances can be thought of as the
distances between machines and obstacles that
allow safe operation of every machine without
limitation. Ensure that your working area offers
plenty of room for free movement and a substan-
tial amount of distance between you and others
that may be working in your shop space.
LIGhtInG and outLetS
Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate
shadows and prevent eye strain. Electrical cir-
cuits should be dedicated or large enough to
handle combined motor amp loads of the lathe
and other machinery connected to that circuit.
Outlets should be located near each machine
so power or extension cords are not obstructing
high-traffic areas. Be sure to observe local elec-
trical codes for proper installation of new lighting,
outlets, or circuits.
make your shop "child safe". ensure that
your workplace is inaccessible to young-
sters by closing and locking all entrances
when you are away. never allow visitors in
your shop when assembling, adjusting or
operating equipment.
