Jet Tools JWL-1642EVS-2 operating instructions Stand Shelf, Tool Basket

3.Lift the tailstock end of the lathe up far enough to slide a few pieces of scrap wood under the leg, see Figure 2.

4.Thread adjustable feet (A, Fig. 2) into stand leg (B, Fig. 2). There is a flat spot on the shaft near the foot that will accommodate a wrench. Thread a hex nut (C, Fig. 2) onto shaft and leave loose for now.

5.Remove the scrap pieces of wood and slide the tailstock, tool rest and headstock down to the tailstock end of the late bed.

6.Mount the two adjustable feet in the same manner as above and move the headstock, tool rest and tailstock into their normal positions.

7.Adjust the feet so that the lathe rests evenly on the floor, and tighten the nuts.

Stand Shelf

You can make an extra shelf that rests between the legs if you wish, see Figure 3. It will be useful for storing lathe accessories, or adding sand bags for some extra weight. The two 2x4’s should be 55-3/4” long. The plywood should be ripped into two equal pieces 27-13/16”L x 17”W so that it can be assembled between the legs. Use screws to attach the plywood to the 2x4 supports.

Tool Basket

1.Mount the bracket (D, Fig. 4) to the inside of the lathe leg with two 5/16”-18 x 1-1/2” hex socket cap screws, four 5/16” flat washers and two 5/16” hex nuts (E, Fig. 4).

2.The two setscrews, on the bracket should be below the bolts and accessible from the backside for adjustment.

3.Place the arm of the tool basket into the bracket and secure with a 5/16”-18 x 5/8” set screw and tighten the 5/16” hex nut (F, Fig. 4). Line up the notch in the arm with the setscrew so the tool basket can pivot.

4.Adjust the setscrews on the bracket so that the tool basket swings in a level manner. Tighten the two hex socket cap screws.
