— When operating correctly, the machine will
run smoothly with little or no vibration or
rubbing noises.
— Investigate and correct strange or unusual
noises or vibrations before operating the
machine further. Always disconnect the
machine from power when investigating or
correcting potential problems.

Push the emergency stop/RESET button to
turn the lathe OFF, then, without resetting the
RESET button, try to restart spindle rotation,
as instructed in Step 9. The spindle should
not start.
— If spindle rotation does start with the
RESET button pressed in, the RESET
button safety is not operating correctly. This
safety feature must operate properly before
continuing operation. Use the spindle lever
to stop the lathe, disconnect it from power,
and call Tech Support for help.

position, and reset the RESET button by
twisting it clockwise until it pops out.
Congratulations! The test run is complete. Turn
