Sanding/Finishing
Whenever sanding or finishing on the Model
W1704, remove the tool rest holder to increase
personal safety and gain adequate working
room.
To remove the tool rest holder, do these
steps:
1. UNPLUG THE LATHE!
2. Remove the tool rest from the holder, as
shown in Figure 29.
3. Using a 12mm socket or wrench, remove the
lock nut ( Figure 30) that is located under
the tool rest holder on the bottom side of
the bed.
4. Pull the tool rest holder off the bed and
replace the lock nut on the threads, so that
it does not get lost.
Wrapping the sandpaper
completely around the
workpiece, will pull your
hands into the moving
workpiece and may cause
injury. Never wrap sand-
paper completely around
the workpiece!
