7. Before putting into operation

• Open the packaging and remove the device care-
fully.
• Remove the packaging material as well as the
packaging and transport bracing (if available).
• Check that the delivery is complete.
• Check the device and accessory parts for trans -
port damage.
• If possible, store the packaging until the warranty
period has expired.
ATTENTION
The device and packaging materials are not toys!
Children must not be allowed to play with plastic
bags, film and small parts! There is a risk of swal-
lowing and suffocation!
• The machine must be securely installed, i.e. bolted
down on a workbench, base frame or similar.
• Before the machine is put into operation, all covers
and safety devices must be properly attached.
• In the case of wood which has already been worked
with, check for foreign bodies such as nails or
screws etc.
• Before connecting the machine, check that the
data on the type plate matches those of the mains
system.
• The machine must only be connected to a properly
installed safety socket which is protected by a fuse
of at least 16A.

8. Attachment and operation

m Warning! Risk of injury!
Prepare the workplace where you intend to place the
electrical power tool. Provide enough space to en-
sure safe and trouble-free operation. The power tool
is designed for working in enclosed rooms and has to
be installed on level and firm ground.
m Important! Pull out the power plug before car-
rying out any maintenance, resetting or assem-
bly work on the device!
Fixation of the machine (Fig. 1)
Before operation, the device must be screwed to a
workbench, undercarriage or similar. Use the slotted
holes (A) for this purpose.
Installing the tool rest (Fig. 1; 4;)
1. Plug the tool rest (6) into the hole in the tool sup-
port (5).
2. Fasten the tool rest (6) at the desired height using
the locking screw (13).

Setting the tool rest (Fig. 1; 4)
1. The height of the tool rest (6) can be set by loos-
ening the locking screw (13).
2. In order to set the length of the tool rest (6), loos-
en the clamping lever for tool rest (14). The tool
rest (6) must be driven as close as possible to the
workpiece without touching it.
3. Retighten the clamping lever for the tool rest (14).
Adjustment of the tailstock (Fig. 1; 5)
1. Loosen the clamping lever (11) for the tailstock (9)
in order to set the distance between the tailstock
(9) and the headstock drive centre (4).
2. To adjust the clamping pressure use the
handwheel (10) and secure it with the counternut
(8).
Warning! Make sure that the tool rest (6) is tight-
ened securely and cannot turn in towards the
workpiece.
Securing the workpiece on the headstock drive
centre (Fig. 1)
1. Locate the centre of the workpiece by accurately
drawing diagonal lines on each end. The intersec-
tion point of these two lines will indicate the centre
of the workpiece.
2. At the end of the workpiece, produce an approx.
2 mm deep saw cut along the diagonal, in order to
receive the headstock drive centre (4).
3. Use a wood mallet (not supplied) to drive the
headstock drive centre (4) into the point where the
diagonal cuts across the end of the workpiece.
Take care to protect the threaded end of the head-
stock drive centre (4) so that no object damages
the thread.
4. Cut the corners off the workpiece if the diameter
of the ends is greater than 5 cm x 5 cm to make
turning easier and safer.
5. Measure the combined total length of the work-
piece with the headstock drive centre (4) and cen-
tering pin (7) on each end.
6. Loosen the clamping lever for the tailstock (9) and
set the distance between the headstock drive cen-
tre (4) and the centring pin (7), such that a slightly
greater distance is obtained than the measured
total length of the workpiece.
7. Tightly screw the headstock drive centre (4) with
workpiece onto the centering pin (7) by the hand
wheel (10).
8. Once positioned fasten the counternut (8) against
the tail stock (9).
9. Set the tool support (5) with tool rest (6) approx. 3
mm away from the workpiece.
