Рэгуляванне хуткасці

The lathe features a variable speed motor with two belt positions to optimize torque and speed for different turning tasks:

  • Position A (Low Speed): Provides an RPM range of 500-2000 RPM. This setting is suitable for larger diameter workpieces, roughing, and initial shaping.
  • Position B (High Speed): Provides an RPM range of 1500-3600 RPM. This setting is ideal for smaller diameter work, finishing, and sanding.

To change belt positions, disconnect power, open the headstock cover, manually move the belt to the desired pulleys, and close the cover. Use the digital readout to monitor and adjust the precise speed within the selected belt range.

Spindle Locking and Indexing

The lathe includes 24 indexing positions, allowing for precise division of the workpiece for fluting, reeding, or other decorative work. Engage the spindle lock to hold the spindle stationary at any of the 24 positions.

Mounting Workpieces

  • Between Centers: For spindle turning, use the spur drive center in the headstock and the live center in the tailstock to secure the workpiece.
  • Faceplate Turning: For bowl or faceplate turning, attach the 3-inch faceplate to the headstock spindle and secure the workpiece to the faceplate using screws.

5. Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне
