Haussmann 5848001 Mode D'emploi page 16

• Shut the lathe OFF and disconnect power source when
removing the faceplate, changing the center, adding or
removing an auxiliary device, or making adjustments.
• Turn key lock switch to off and remove key when tool is
not in use.
• If the workpiece splits or is damaged in any way, turn
lathe OFF and remove the workplace from the
holders. Discard damaged workpiece and start with a
new piece of wood.
• Use extra care when turning wood with twisted grain or
wood that is twisted or bowed as it may cut unevenly or
wobble excessively.
KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS
• Dull, gummy, improperly sharpened or set cutting tools
can cause vibration and chatter during cutting
operations. Minimize potential injury by proper care of
tools and regular machine maintenance.
THINK SAFETY
Safety is a combination of operator common sense and
alertness at all times when the lathe is being used.
• For your own safety, read all rules and precautions in
the operator's manual before using this tool.
• For eye protection, wear safety glasses complying with
United States ANSI Z87.1.
• Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings,
bracelets or other jewelry that could get caught in
moving parts of machine or workpiece. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
• Tighten all clamps, fixtures and tailstock before applying
power. Check to make sure that all tools and wrenches
have been removed.
• With switch off, rotate workpiece by hand to make sure
that there is adequate clearance. Start the machine on
lowest speed setting to verity that the workpiece is
secure.
• For large pieces, create a rough shape on another piece
of equipment before installing on faceplate.
• Do not mount any workpieces that have splits or knots.
• Never attempt to remount a faceplate turning to the
faceplate for any reason.
• Never attempt to remount a between-centers turning if
the original centers on the turning have been altered or
removed.
• When remounting a between-centers turning that has
non- altered original centers, make sure that the speed
is at the lowest setting for start-up.
• Use extra caution when mounting a between-centers
turning to the faceplate, or a faceplate turning to
between-centers, for secondary operations. Make sure
that the speed is at the lowest setting for start-up.
• Never perform any operation with this lathe where the
work- piece is hand-held. Do not mount a reamer,
milling cutter, drill bit, wire wheel or buffing wheel to the
headstock spindle.
• When hand-sanding faceplate or between-centers
mounted workpieces, complete all sanding BEFORE
removing the workpiece from the lathe.
• Never run the spindle in the wrong direction. The
cutting tool could be pulled from your hands. The
workpiece should always turn towards the operator.
• For spindle turning, ALWAYS position the tool rest
above the centerline of the work piece and spindle (ap
proximately 1/8").
