ACTIVATING THE SPINDLE
IMPORTANT: Unlock the spindle lock BEFORE operating the tool. The unlocked position is shown in Fig. 23A while the locked
position is shown in Fig. 23B.
CHANGING SPEED RANGES
IMPORTANT: Change speeds ONLY when the tool is running.
This tool provides variable rate spindle speeds from 600 to 2200 RPM. To change speeds, depress the release (A) Fig. 24 and
rotate the lever (B). Turning the lever clockwise increases the speed while turning it counter-clockwise decreases the speed.

ALIGNING THE HEADSTOCK CENTER TO THE TAILSTOCK CENTER
The tailstock will move slightly when it is tightened. To
ensure that the tailstock center will always be in line with the
headstock center:
1. Install the pointed centers (A) and (B) Fig. 25 into the
spindles.
2. Loosen the locking lever (back side of the tailstock), and
slide the tailstock (D) to the left until the tailstock center
(B) is almost contacting the headstock center (A). Tighten
the locking lever. Check to see if the tailstock center point
(B) is in line with the headstock center point (A).
3. To adjust, loosen the headstock locking shaft (C) Fig.
25, and align the headstock center point to the tailstock
center point. Tighten the locking shaft (C) Fig. 25.

LATHE TOOLS
Standard wood turning tools come in several different
configurations (Fig. 26). The majority of turnings will require
the gouge tool (A) Fig. 26. This round nosed hollow chisel is
used for roughing cuts, cove cuts and other operations. The
skew chisel (B) is a double-ground flat chisel, with an angled
end. This tool is used for smoothing cylinders, for cutting
shoulders, beads, vee-grooves, etc. The parting tool (C) is
a double-ground chisel, used for cutting-off, or for making
straight incisions or sizing cuts to any required diameter. The
round nose scraper (D) is used for mostly hollowing work,
while the square-end scraper (E) is mainly used for the outside
of bowls.
