The adjustable swivel headstock allows for greater flexibility in accessing various angles, providing users with more control and comfort during operation.

Safety is also a priority in the design of the JWL-1642EVS and JWL-1642EVS-2, with features such as a safety restart switch, ensuring that the lathe cannot restart unexpectedly after a power interruption. Easy-to-read digital readouts for speed settings further enhance user experience by allowing for precise monitoring while turning.
