the spindle speed or rpM is controlled by two
speed control levers at the top of the headstock
and the 2-speed motor switch located on the lathe
base (
figure 19). the 2-speed motor allows for
the low and high range speed options presented
in columns
1 and 2 shown in figure 19. Below is
an example how to set the spindle to 1800 rpM.
see figure 19 for the following example:
1. Move the 2-speed motor switch so it points to
position 1.
note: Position "1" on the switch activates
both #1 columns on the speed chart.
Position "2" activates both #2 columns on the
speed chart.
Position " I", the central position on the
switch, cuts power to the motor.
2. Move the spindle orange/blue range lever so
it points to the right-hand orange-low range
column number
1.
note: The spindle orange/blue range lever
must point to which ever range column your
RPM is listed in.
3. Move the spindle speed lever so the indica-
tor points to 1800 at the bottom of the orange
column number
1.
note: The spindle speed lever must point to
one of four speeds within the column in ques-
tion.
