Faceplate Turning - Craftsman 113.228360 Owner's Manual

12. Adjust the tool rest approximately 1/8" away from
the corners of the wood and 1/8" above the center
line. Note the angled position of the tool rest base.
WARNING: For your own safety, after adjusting
• tool rest be sure and lock the tool rest holder,
e tool rest slide and the tool rest.
Look at the speed chart. Notice that a 2" square
turning up to 18" long should run at 875 R.P.M. for
"roughing." Move the Poly-V-Belt on the pulleys to
the slowest speed as outlined under "Changing
Speeds" section.
When finish-turning any size wood, notice that the
recommended speed of the lathe is increased con-
siderably above the rough-turning speed.
However, if excessive vibration occurs at any speed
always shut the lathe off immediately and reduce
the speed until the vibration is not excessive.
During any spindle turning operation check all locks
frequently for tightness. Also frequently check the
fit of the cup center against the turning. Do not
allow the wearing away of wood to cause a loose fit.
WARNING: To avoid injury from thrown pieces,
turn workplece by hand to make sure it doesn't
hit any parts of the lathe. Always make sure the
workpiece is properly mounted and the lathe Is
set at the proper speed (RPM) before re-inserting
the switch key. Never spindle turn workpieces
longer than these specified in the chart for the
sizes shown. Never spindle turn workpieces
greater than 4" square.
