NOTICE

The following section was designed to give
instructions on how to prepare the various
items of your

LATHE

cedures; however, this section is in no way
designed to instruct on lathe techniques or

skills needed to operate the lathe portion of
your machine.

Your safety is important! Please follow the
warnings below during this entire section:

Never leave a chuck key in the chuck when
it is not in use. If the machine is accidental-
ly started, the chuck key can become a pro-
jectile and cause serious personal injury.

Operating this equipment has the potential
for flying debris to cause eye injury. Always
wear safety glasses or goggles when oper-
ating equipment. Everyday glasses or read-
ing glasses only have impact resistant lens-
es, they are not safety glasses. Be certain
the safety glasses you wear meet the appro-
priate standards of the American National
Standards Institute (ANSI).
