Assembly Instructions

Please take some time to read the section entitled

“Illustration and Description” to identify the

various parts of your machine so that you are familiar

with the terminology we will use to enable you

to set up and operate your table lathe safely and

correctly.

The lathe and its accessories will arrive coated with

corrosion preventative grease. This will need to

be cleaned from the lathe, its components and

accessories prior to it being set up.

Use degreaser to remove the barrier grease. Be

warned, it will stain if you splash it on clothing etc.,

wear overalls, rubber gloves are also a good idea,

as is eye protection. After cleaning, lightly coat the

machine with a thin layer of light wax. If you used

parafﬁn/kerosene make sure you apply this thin ﬁlm

sooner rather than later.

WARNING: The wood lathe is a heavy machine, it is advisable to

use a lifting device such as a hoist, scissor lift or seek help when

assembling the lathe.

The majority of the machine comes fully assembled, the remaining items to be assembled is described below.

We recommend you remove the

headstock, tool rest and tailstock from the

lathe bed before lifting the lathe assembly

off the pallet as the lathe is very heavy.

1. Loosen the headstock stop bracket (a), to the

left side of the lathe bed and with help slide the

headstock off the lathe bed and place safely aside,

see ﬁgures 2-3.

2. Remove the tailstock stop bolt (b) from the right

hand side of the lathe bed and remove both the

tailstock and tool rest assembly and place safely

aside. (See ﬁgures 4-5-6)
