m Remaining hazards
The machine has been built using modern technolo-
gy in accordance with recognized safety rules. Some
remaining hazards, however, may still exist.
• Only process selected woods without defects such as:
Branch knots, edge cracks, surface cracks. Wood with
such defects is prone to splintering and hazardous.
• Wood which is not correctly glued can explode when
being processed due to centrifugal force.
• Trim work piece to a rectangular shape, center and
correctly secure before processing. Unbalanced work
pieces can be hazardous.
• Injuries can occur when feeding work pieces if tool sup-
ports are not correctly adjusted or if turning tools are
blunt. Sharp turning tools which are free of defects are
necessary for professional turning.
• Long hair and loose clothing can be hazardous when
the work piece is rotating. Wear personal protective
gear such as a hair net and tight fitting work clothes.
• Saw dust and wood chips can be hazardous. Wear
pesonal protective gear such as safety goggles and
a dust mask.
• The use of incorrect or damaged mains cables can lead
to injuries caused by electricity.
• Even when all safety measures are taken, some re-
maining hazards which are not yet evident may still
be present.
• Remaining hazards can be minimized by following the
instructions in „Safety Precautions", „Proper Use" and
in the entire operating manual.
Assembly (figure 2 – 8)
Due to packing reasons, your woodturning lathe will
be delivered partially assembled, in a wooden pallet
box. Fig. 2
1 Open the box and remove the lateral parts. Fig. 3
2 Remove the carton and all loose individual compo-
nents. Fig. 4
3 Remove the fastening screws which are used to secure
the lathe bed on the pallet. Fig. 5
4 Remove the feet from the pallet. Fig. 6
5 Place the lathe bed on the stable surface which is a bit
higher than the base frame feet. Fig. 7
Note! In order to make the assembly easier, you may re-
move the headstock before the assembly.
6 Attach both feet to the lathe bed and fasten the screws
tightly. Fig. 8
7 Now attach the tool support to the lathe bed, the face-
plate to the headstock and insert the tailstock centre
in the barrel.
8 Now the woodturning lathe is operational.

Start-up
Observe the safety notes in the operating instruc-
tions before operating the machine.
Remove the tensioning spindle or the chuck from the
spindle in addition to any step-up tools before first
operating the machine!
Reversing switch, Fig. 6
Your turning machine is equipped witha reversing switch.
The motor is always switched on and off using the operat-
ing switch. I = green; 0 = red.
The reversing switch is merely a selector for the direction
of rotation. You can change the direction of rotation from
anticlockwise to clockwise
The speed setting can only be done when engine is
running.
For safety reasons, it is not possible to switch directly
from anticlockwise to clockwise when the motor is run-
ning. When the reversing switch is in 0-position it switch-
es the motor off, which must be switched back on using
the green switch.
Speed adjustment Fig. 7
The speed can only be adjusted during work.
The correct number of revolutions is visible on the speed
diagram located on the headstock. The speed diagram is
intended for medium-hard dry woods.
The appropriate speed is based on various factors such
as:
• type and compostion of woods
• seasoned, dry woods
• diameter and length of workpieces
• squared or unbalanced woods
• width of pre-worked, balanced workpieces
• wood turner tools and technique
• workpieces out of glued wood
Successful wood turning does not result from high
speeds, but rather, from correct use of the machine.

Guidelines for speed adjustment
Low speeds for:
• workpieces with large diameters
• hard workpieces with large diameters
• long, unbalanced workpieces
• glued pieces of wood
Adjustment of the speed Fig.9
The continuous setting of the rotations per minute (B)
may only be done while the machine is running.
The speed is visible on the display (D) and may be ad-
justed in 2 levels.
1 Level from 0 – 1,200
2 Level from 0 – 3,200
The adjustment is performed by shifting the drive belt and
is carried out as follows.
