Outboard Turning; Sanding/Finishing - Grizzly G0632 Owner's Manual

Outboard Turning

outboard turning is a variation of faceplate turn-
ing and is usually done when the stock diameter
is greater than 12". For the size of this particular
lathe and its minimum turning speed, we recom-
mend a maximum diameter of 17".
figure 49 depicts the lathe setup at 90° for turn-
ing larger workpieces. When turning in this man-
ner, you must use a free standing tool rest (not
included).

Keep the lathe tool resting on a tool rest
the ENTIRE time that it is in contact with
workpiece or when preparing to make con-
tact between lathe tool and workpiece.
Otherwise, the spinning workpiece could
force the lathe tool out of your hands or
entangle your hands into the workpiece.
failure to heed this warning could result in
serious personal injury.

Sanding/finishing

After the turning operations are complete, the
workpiece can be sanded and finished before
removing it from the lathe (see figure 50).

Note: Whenever sanding or finishing, move the
tool rest holder out of the way to increase per-
sonal safety and gain adequate working room.
