•
To tension the belt, lower the motor; the
motor's own weight is sufficient.
•
After adjusting the speed, retighten the motor
tightening screw (17), close the housing co-
ver (16) and secure it with the retaining screw
(13).
•
There is a table showing the speeds on the
inside of the housing cover (16).
5.4.1 Select the correct speed
•
Always start with the lowest possible speed
for new workpieces being turned and increa-
se it with increasing massiveness of the work-
piece being turned.
•
Preselect the speed in accordance with the
cutting speed table, starting with a low speed
for workpieces which are out of round.
•
When it comes to turning, the selection of
the correct speed depends on a number of
factors. (e.g. size, imbalance, material, etc., of
the workpiece)
•
As a rule of thumb, the following applies:
•
Out of round workpieces, large workpieces,
hard pieces of wood – low speed.
5.5 Retooling the front end driver on the face
plate (Fig. 11 - 12)
•
Hold the wrench (14) on the spindle (faces
are provided on the spindle for the purpose)
immediately behind the front end driver (2).
•
Use a second wrench (22) to undo the front
end driver (2) by turning the wrench in a
counterclockwise direction while holding the
other wrench against it.
•
Now screw the face plate (15) onto the spind-
le thread and use the wrench (14) to tighten it
securely on the spindle.
5.6. Front end driver and live lathe center
(Fig. 1)
•
The front end driver (2) is designed to trans-
mit the power of the motor to the workpiece
during turning between the tips.
•
Whenever you do any work between the front
end driver (2) and centering tip (4), make sure
that the centering hole is drilled to a sufficient
depth. Centering hole diameter: 5-8 mm. Do
not set the clamping pressure too high. The
workpieces could become curve-shaped and
break if the clamping pressure is too high.
•
To avoid damage to threads or bearings, use
a wooden or rubber mallet to tap in the front
end driver (2) on the front side of the work-
piece.
•
The live centering tip (4) prevents the cente-

ring hole which has to be made in the workpi-
ece from burning out.
6. Operation
6.1 Important information for operation
•
Look out for knots and shrinkage shakes
when selecting the wood for your turning
work. Only use wood which is free of cracks
and large knots (where there are small knots,
take appropriate care with the pressure ap-
plied with the turning tool).
•
Always check that the shaped item is secure-
ly held by checking it by hand. Warning! Pull
out the power plug!
•
Use only an original turning tool which is
sharp.
•
Do not stand in the flight path of the workpie-
ce when turning wooden disks.
•
Please cut large and imbalanced shaped
items to size as best as possible using a
bandsaw or fretsaw. If the shaped items are
very imbalanced they will pose a risk to your
health and to the service life of the machine.
•
Always start with the lowest possible speed
for new workpieces being turned and increa-
se it with increasing massiveness of the work-
piece being turned.
•
Do not use wooden disks with contraction
cracks, since they pose a high risk of bursting
under the impact of centrifugal forces.
•
Do not exceed the maximum workpiece sizes
(see Technical Data)
•
In case of tools which get blocked: Pull out
the power plug first before starting trouble-
shooting.
•
Clamp the workpieces between the front
end driver or face plate and the centering
tip. Tighten the tailstock (6) securely with the
clamping lever (10) or wing nut (29) first. Then
clamp the workpiece by turning the crank
handle (20) on the hand wheel (08).
•
To do your turning work, position yourself at
the machine so that you can guide the cutting
tools effectively on the tool support.
6.2 ON and OFF switches (Fig. 13)
•
The wood lathe can be switched on by pres-
sing the green pushbutton „I".
•
The red pushbutton „0" has to be pressed to
switch off the wood lathe.
