Faceplate

Refer to Chuck & Faceplate Mounting instructions on Page 27 to mount the faceplate to the spindle.

The 12" faceplate included with your lathe offers a wide range of uses, including machining non- concentric workpieces, straight turning between centers, off-center turning, and boring.

The tools needed for mounting a workpiece will vary depending on the type of setup you have.

Failure to properly secure a workpiece to the faceplate could cause the workpiece to be thrown from the lathe with deadly force at the operator or bystanders. Use a minimum of three independent clamping devices to hold a non-concentric workpiece onto the faceplate.

Machining non-concentric workpieces at a high speed could cause the workpiece to be thrown from the spindle with deadly force at the operator or bystanders. To reduce this risk, only machine non-concentric workpieces at low speeds and clamp counter-weights to the faceplate to balance it.

Mounting Workpiece with Clamps

1.DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!

2.Place a piece of 3⁄4" plywood on the bedway below the spindle.

3.With help from another person, place the workpiece onto the faceplate and clamp it in place with a minimum of three independent clamping devices (see Figure 63 for an example).

Note: Be sure to take into account the rotation and cutting forces that will be applied to the workpiece when clamping it to the faceplate.

4.Double check tool and slide motion clearances before turning spindle ON.

Mounting Workpiece Between Centers

1.DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!

2.Drill center holes in both ends of the workpiece.

3.Install the dead center in the spindle and the live center or carbide-tipped dead center in the tailstock (refer to Page 37).

4.Secure a lathe dog on the spindle-end and place a drop of oil in the center hole on the tailstock-end of the workpiece.

5.Mount the workpiece between centers so the lathe dog tail fits freely in the faceplate slot without binding.
