The Power Supply

When illuminated, the power lamp (Figure 6)
indicates that power is being supplied to the lathe/
mill. Pressing the red emergency stop button will
cut power for machine operations. Twisting the
emergency stop button clockwise and letting it
pop out will restore power for machine operations
and reset the emergency stop button.
Note: The Spindle Rotation ON/OFF Lever
(Figure 8) on the apron starts the spindle motor
in a particular direction.
TURN OFF and LOCK your master power
switch so no power is available to the lathe/
mill, and make sure the spindle is stopped
before proceeding with any adjustments or
maintenance. Failure to comply may result
in serious personal injury or death.
