3.1.
Unpack the product and check that all components and tools are present and undamaged. If any problem is noted contact your supplier immediately.
3.2.
The machine has been coated with grease to protect it in shipping. Remove the coating with commercial degreaser, kerosene or similar
solvent before use. After degreasing coat the machined surfaces with machine oil.
3.3.
Position the lathe on a sturdy workbench or on the optional stand (SM3002/ST).
The lathe may be mounted on the rubber feet provided or bolted directly to the
workbench through M6 clearance holes dimensioned as in fig. 2.
3.4.
Take the the two handles and drop a bolt through each one. Screw a nut to the bolt until
it touches the handle, then back it off approximately half a turn so that the handle rotates
freely on the bolt.
3.5.
Screw the bolt of one handle into the saddle feed handwheel (fig. 1.6) and the other into the tailstock feed handwheel (fig. 1.3). in each
case, lock the bolt in place with the nut, ensuring that the handle can still rotate freely on the bolt.
3.6.
The cross-slide feed handle (fig. 1.5) is fitted reversed for transit. Remove the handle and refit the correct way round.
4. SET-UP AND OPERATION
It is assumed that the operator has experience of machining practice and these instructions are intended only to describe the features
of the lathe. If you have no experience of machining it is recommended that you undertake training before using this machine.
p WARNING! Before operating the lathe ensure that you are wearing approved safety goggles and gloves to protect you from swarf
and metal particles. If using cutting oil or coolant a face mask may be necessary to avoid breathing any vapour generated. Ensure that
all other safety instructions in Section 1 are followed carefully.
4.1.
Initial start-up
4.1.1. Check that the forward/reverse switch (fig. 3.B) is in the Off position and that the speed control (fig. 3.A) is on zero.
4.1.2. Set the high/low range lever (fig. 4.A) to Low and the automatic feed lever (fig. 5.A) to disengaged - turn anticlockwise.
4.1.3. Confirm that the cross-slide is well clear of the chuck and that all keys, spanners etc. are clear of the machine.
