workpiece.

12.Before beginning lathe operation, rotate the workpiece by hand to ensure that there is safe clearance on all sides.

Keep the lathe tool resting on the tool rest the ENTIRE time that it is in contact with workpiece or when preparing to make contact between lathe tool and workpiece. Otherwise, the spinning workpiece could force the lathe tool out of your hands or entangle your hands with the workpiece. Failure to heed this warning could result in serious personal injury.

Spindle Turning Safety Tips:

When turning the lathe ON, stand away from the path of the spinning workpiece until the lathe reaches full speed and you can verify that the lathe will not throw the workpiece.

Use the slowest speed when starting or stop- ping the lathe.

Select the right speed for the size of workpiece that you are turning:

—Use the slower speeds for large workpieces (diameters of 4" and over) and for rough cutting.

—Use the middle range speeds for workpiece diameters of 2–4".

—Use the faster speeds for workpieces under 2".

Keep the turning tool on the tool rest the ENTIRE time that it is in contact with the workpiece.

Learn the correct techniques for each tool you will use. If you are unsure about how to use the lathe tools, read books or magazines about lathe techniques and seek training from experienced and knowledgeable lathe users.
