The 28” bed extension and 3/4HP motor allow turning pieces up to 50” long, a capacity rivaling far more expensive machines.
Bed Extension
Adding the JWL-1220BE 28” (#708377) bed extension expands the JET JWL-1220VS between center capacity to nearly 50“, exceeding that of many full-sized 12” lathes! The 3/4hp motor has the power needed to handle those long pieces.
The JWL-1220BE 28” bed extension comes with the necessary hardware for installation but goes a step further to make this process easy. A hanging plate on the mating end of the extension makes aligning it to the JET JWL-1220VS bed much easier when a second set of hands are not available. The mating face also has hex head socket screws pre-
installed that make aligning the JWL-1220BE 28” bed extension perfectly much easier. Even the rubber-cushioned feet on the bed extension are adjustable to be sure your newly configured JET JWL-1220VS is stable on irregular surfaces.
Stand
The stand features wide-stance, rubber-tipped feet (left) that adjust for irregular floors. The mounting plates (right) are adjustable up and down to fine-tune spindle height for comfort.
