SECTION 4: LATHE OPERATIONS
Operating this equipment has the potential
for flying debris to cause eye injury. Always
wear safety glasses or goggles when oper-
ating equipment. Everyday glasses or read-
ing glasses only have impact resistant
lenses, they are not safety glasses. Be
certain the safety glasses you wear meet
the appropriate standards of the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI).
Keep loose clothing out
of the way of machin-
ery and keep hair pulled
back during operations.
Never leave a chuck key in the chuck when
it is not in use. If the machine is accidentally
started, the chuck key can become a projec-
tile and cause serious personal injury.
NOTICE
The following section was designed to give
instructions on how to prepare the vari-
ous items of your LATHE during operation
procedures; however, this section is in no
way designed to instruct on lathe tech-
niques or machining skills. WE STRONGLY
RECOMMEND that you read books, trade
magazines, or get formal training to gain the
skills needed to operate the lathe portion of
your machine.
