132. Relieve belt tension by pulling handle (F,Figure 14) while pushing up lever (G).3. Move belt to desired pulley set. Make sure beltis properly seated in both pulleys, and bothpulleys are aligned (belt is vertical, notslanted).4. Push lever (G) down to tighten belt, and closeaccess doors.Keep access doors closedduring operation.Figure 149.4 Index pinReferring to Figure 15:Indexing is used to create evenly spaced featuresin a work piece, while keeping the lathe spindlelocked; for example, when cutting flutes on aspindle blank with a hand-held router, while thespindle blank is secured between lathe centers.Your lathe provides 24 indexing positions. Theseare identified by inscribed numbers on the spindlepulley (H, Figure 15)Figure 151. Rotate spindle until index pin (I) aligns withdesired hole.2. Push index pin into hole and rotate knurledhead (J) to engage threads and secure inposition.3. Perform operation.4. Rotate knurled head counterclockwise until pinreleases. Move pulley to next desired hole,and repeat. NOTE: A 3mm hex key (K, Figure15) can be inserted and turned in the hole ofthe knurled head, to help tighten or loosen theindex pin.Disengage index pin beforestarting lathe.IMPORTANT: Do not use index pin to lock spindle,which will cause unnecessary wear to the pin. Usespindle lock for this purpose.10.0 Operating controlsReferring to Figure 16:Speed dial (A): Rotate dial to set speed, which isshown as RPM (revolutions per minute) in theadjoining digital readout window.Do not start lathe at maximumspeed. Start at lowest speed within that rangeand gradually increase to full speed.Fwd/Rev switch (B): Forward is counterclockwiserotation of spindle, as viewed from tailstock end. Itis the normal rotation for standard woodturningoperations. Reverse is clockwise rotation. Spindledirection can be changed without turning off thelathe.On/off switch (C): Pull up to start lathe, pushdown to stop. The safety key (C 1 ) can be removedto prevent unauthorized use of lathe. Key must bereinserted to start lathe.If a power outage should occur during operation,the lathe will not immediately restart when power isresumed. Flip paddle switch off and then back onto start lathe.Digital readout (D): The digital readout maydisplay an error code if a malfunction occurs on thelathe. Also, an alarm signal may be emitted untilthe issue has been resolved. If an error codeoccurs, consult section 15.0, Troubleshooting.Figure 16
