In addition to the gearboxes, we also recommend
that you lubricate all other points on the
machine at this time. This can be accomplished
by following the maintenance schedule on Page
54.
Note: If your lathe was shipped with oil in the
gearboxes, do not change that oil until after the
break-in period.
Power Connection
Electrocution or fire
may occur if machine is
ungrounded, incorrectly
connected to power, or
connected to an undersized
circuit. Use a qualified
electrician to ensure a safe
power connection.
Once all preparation steps previously described
in this manual have been completed, the
machine can be connected to the power source.
In order to be connected to the power source, a
circuit must be installed/prepared that meets
the requirements of the lathe, and a power
connection method must be established for that
circuit. The following lists show the minimum
requirements for each model, and instructions
follow for each connection method.
Note About Power Cords: Using an incorrectly
sized cord causes electrical components on
the machine and the cord to become very hot,
which will greatly decrease the life of electrical
components or result in fire. For best results,
use the shortest length of cord possible for your
machine, and never use a smaller cord gauge
than the specified minimum.
This machine is equipped with a frequency
drive that contains sensitive electronics,
which can be damaged by a phase converter.
DO NOT use a phase converter to power this
machine. Doing so will void the warranty.
