Never wrap sandpa-
per around a moving

causing a an entangle-
ment injury.
EYE/FACE PROTECTION. Wear eye protection and a face
shield during all turning operations.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION. Always wear a respirator
when using this tool. Wood dust may cause allergies or
long-term respiratory health problems.
AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT. Keep long hair and loose
clothing such as sleeves, belts, and jewelry items away
from the workpiece and chuck.
WORKPIECE CONDITION. Always inspect the condition of
your workpiece. NEVER turn stock with knots, splits, and
other potentially dangerous conditions. All glued joints
must have high quality bonds that will not fly apart during
operation.
MOUNTING WORKPIECE. Before starting, be certain the
drive and spur centers have been properly imbedded into
the workpiece, and that the table is locked in place.
USING TOOL REST. NEVER attempt free-hand turning, you
must always support the chisel on the tool rest, and keep
the tool rest gap to 1⁄8" to 1⁄2" when ever possible.
TURNING SPEED. Select the correct tuning speed for your
work before starting the drill press.
USING SHARP CHISELS. Keep chisels sharp. Dull chisels
require more force to cut, causing tool chatter and
grabbing hazards.
MATERIAL REMOVAL. Attempting to remove too much
wood at once may cause the workpiece or chisel to eject
causing severe injury.
Damage to your face, lungs, and eyes
could result from using this tool with-
out proper protective gear. Always
wear a face shield, safety glasses, and
a respirator when using this drill press
lathe attachment.
