General Instructions for 230V Machines

The following will enable you to observe good working

practices, keep yourself and fellow workers safe and maintain

your tools and equipment in good working order.

WARNING!! KEEP TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT

OUT OF REACH OF YOUNG CHILDREN

Mains Powered Tools

• Tools are supplied with an attached 13 Amp plug.

• Inspect the cable and plug to ensuree that neither are

damaged. Repair if necessary by a suitably qualiﬁed person.

• Do not use when or where it is liable to get wet.

Workplace

• Do not use 230V a.c. powered tools anywhere

within a site area that is ﬂooded.

• Keep machine clean.

• Leave machine unplugged until work is about to commence.

• Always disconnect by pulling on the plug body and not the

cable.

•Carry out a ﬁnal check e.g. check the cutting tool

is securely tightened in the machine and the correct

speed and function set.

•Ensure you are comfortable before you start work,

balanced, not reaching etc.

•Wear appropriate safety clothing, goggles, gloves,

masks etc.Wear ear defenders at all times.

•If you have long hair wear a hair net or helmet to prevent it

being caught up in the rotating parts of the machine.

•Consideration should be given to the removal of rings and

wristwatches.

•Consideration should also be given to non-slip footwear etc.

•If another person is to use the machine, ensure they are

suitably qualiﬁed to use it.

•Do not use the machine if you are tired or distracted

•Do not use this machine within the designated safety areas

of ﬂammable liquid stores or in areas where there may be

volatile gases.

•Check cutters are correct type and size, are undamaged

and are kept clean and sharp, this will maintain their

operating performance and lessen the loading on the

machine.

•OBSERVE…. make sure you know what is happening

around you and USE YOUR COMMON SENSE.

KEEP WORK AREA AS UNCLUTTERED AS IS

PRACTICAL. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES

SHOULD CHILDREN BE ALLOWED IN WORK

AREAS.

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.

Important Notes

Please take some time to read the section entitled ‘Illustration

and Description’ to identify the various parts of your machine

so that you are familiar with the terminology we will use to

enable you to set up and operate your table lathe safely and

correctly.

The lathe and its accessories will arrive coated with corrosion

preventative grease.This will need to be cleaned from the

lathe, its components and accessories prior to it being set up.

Wearing overalls and rubber gloves is advisable, as is eye

protection. After cleaning, lightly coat the machine with a

thin layer of light wax.

WARNING: THE WOOD LATHE IS A HEAVY

MACHINE, IT IS ADVISABLE TO USE A LIFTING

DEVICE SUCH AS A HOIST, SCISSOR LIFT OR

SEEK HELP WHEN ASSEMBLING THE LATHE.

WARNNING! WE RECOMMEND YOU REMOVE

THE HEADSTOCK,TOOL REST AND TAILSTOCK

FROM THE LATHE BED BEFORE LIFTING THE

LATHE ASSEMBLY OFF THE PALLET

UNPACK YOUR NEW LATHE AND RECYCLE

THE PACKAGING RESPONSIBLY.THE CARD-

BOARD PACKAGING IS BIODEGRADABLE.

PLEASE NOTE: The Trade Lathe comes 90%

pre-assembled. In order to reduce the footprint of the

machine for packaging, several items are dismounted from

the machine and need to be re-afﬁxed. Please check all the

boxes, packets etc. to make sure that all the parts have

been accounted for.

1. Remove the headstock and tailstock stop pins to the ends of

the lathe bed and place safely aside, see ﬁg 01-02.

Fig 01-02

2. Carefully remove the headstock, tailstock and tool rest banjo

and place safely aside, see ﬁg 06-07-08.

NOTE: Before you remove the headstock assembly, ﬁrst

remove the Electronic inverter control box from the pallet

by removing the two securing screws and place safely aside,

see ﬁg 05.

3. Using a lifting device or seek help, lift the lathe bed from the

pallet onto a work bench in rediness to mount the leg stands

(M).

1. Locate the two lathe stands (M) and the four adjustable feet

(L). Screw the threaded feet into the pre-drilled holes to the

base of the stands, see ﬁg 09.

Fig 09

2. Place the leg stands on their feet, locate the eight M10 bolts,

spring washer/washers, see ﬁg 10. Place a washer/spring washer

over each bolt, using a lifting device or get assistance lift the

lathe bed up about 700mm from the ﬂoor. Line up the four

machined holes two each end of the lathe bed with the holes

in the leg stands (M) and secure in place with the four M10

bolts. Using a 17mm socket or spanner securely tighten, see ﬁgs

11-12-13.

3. Before replacing the headstock banjo/tool rest and

tailstock to the lathe bed, remove the oil residue from all

machined surfaces, see ﬁg 14-15.

Locate the inverter control box and two Hex screws. Position

the control box up inside the leg stand (M) and line up the

threaded holes in the mounting bracket with the top two holes

inside the leg stand assembly. Using a Hex key insert the two

Hex screws through the leg stand casting and into the control

box mounting bracket, see ﬁg 20-21-22.

Assembly

Lathe Bed Extension

The extension bed (N) will increase the capacity of your lathe in three

ways.The lathe can be used with the main bed either way around, this is

because the extension bed (N) can be mounted either on the end of the

main bed to extend the distance between centres, on the leg stand (M)

to create a bigger turning diameter, or on a mounting plate machined

onto the side of the main bed.This allows bowl turning with the

headstock rotated to suit.

Setup 1 ( to increase distance between centres)

Setup 2 ( mounted to leg stand)

Locate the four cap head bolts/spring/washers and the bed extension

(N). Remove the stop pin from one side of the lathe bed and place safely

aside. Place a sping/washer over each cap head bolt, with help align the

for holes in the bed extension (N) with four threaded holes to the end of

the lathe bed.Insert the bolts through the castings and just nip up the

bolts. Manoeuvre the tailstock over the two beds and lock in place. (this

aligns the two beds) Now tighten all four cap head bolt to secure the

extension in place.Replace the stop pin in the extension bed (N), see ﬁg

24-25.

Cap head bolt

1. The extension bed can be mounted to the leg stand (M) in

two set heights for the required piece being turned, see ﬁg 26.

Align the holes in the extension bed with the thread holes to

one of the set height mounting plates and secure with the four

cap head bolts, see ﬁg 27-28.

2. Slide the banjo assembly into the extension bed. Loosen the

tool rest clamping handle, locate the tool rest extension post (B)

and insert it into the banjo and tight the clamping handle.

Fig 27-28

3. Loosen tool rest extension clamp and insert one of the two

tool rests (F) or (K) and secure in position.

4. Remove the tailstock assembly and place safely aside, lift up

the headstock locking handle and slide the headstock assembly

until it’s up against the edge of the lathe bed and lock in place.

Insert the stop pin in the lathe bed and extension bed, see ﬁg

29.
