Identify and mark the centre of the backing piece.
The backing piece (chunk of wood block) may
need to be glued to the workpiece, and attached
to the backing piece which is then attached to the
faceplate (17)with screws (not supplied). In this
case, clamp the backing piece to the workpiece
and wait for the glue to dry according to the glue
manufacturer's recommendation. Where the use
of screws into the workpieceis not permissible,
the workpiece can be glued onto a backing piece
with a piece of paper placed in between the joint.
This allows for later separation without damage
caused to the workpiece. Use only non-tapered
head wood screws. Do not use tapered head
wood screws.
Caution: Pay attention to the wood turning chisel so
that it does not interfere with the holding screws at
the finished dimensions of the workpiece.
Switching on and off (Fig. 1)
• Press the On switch (2/green) to start the machine.
• Press the Off switch (2/red) to stop the machine.
important information for operation
• We recommend that you refer to specialised litera-
ture on wood-turning techniques.
• 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 applied with the turning tool).
• Always check that the shaped item is securely 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 workpiece
when turning wooden disks.
• Please cut large and imbalanced shaped items to
size as best as possible using a bandsaw or fret-
saw. 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 increase it with
increasing massiveness of the workpiece 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.
• In case of tools which get blocked: Pull out the
power plug first before starting troubleshooting.
• To do your turning work, position yourself at the
machine so that you can guide the cutting tools
effectively on the tool support.
• Only use cutting tools, which are recommended
for wood turning works.
