palm of your hand keeping your fingers closed.
(see Fig 15-1 and 15-2).
Fig 15-1
Fig 15-2
6.2 Tool selection
Successful wood turning does not result from high speeds,
but rather, from the correct use of turning tools.
A perfect and sharp wood turner tool is a precondition for
professional wood-turning.
Major tools:
Fig 16
Gouge (A, Fig 16), used for rapidly cut raw wood into round
stock, for turning bowls and plates, for turning beds, coves
and other detail (Fig 17).
Fig 17
Scraper (B, Fig 16), used for diameter scraping and to
reduce ridges.
Skew Chisel (C, Fig 16), used to make vees, beads, etc.
(Fig 18). The bevel of skew is parallel to the cut.

Fig 18
Parting tool (D, Fig 16), used to cut directly into the
material, or to make a cut off. Also used for scraping and to
set diameters.
6.3 Speed selection
Use low speeds for roughing and for large diameter work. If
vibrations occur, stop the machine and correct the cause.
See speed recommendations.

6.4 Turning between centres
With a ruler locate and mark the centre on each end.
Put a dimple in each end of the shock. Extremely hard
woods may require kerfs cut into the spur drive end of stock
(see Fig 19).
Fig 19
The spur drive centre locks into the spindle taper and can
be removed with the knockout rod (Fig 20).
Fig 20
The live centre locks into the tail stock taper and can be
removed by rotating the handwheel counter clockwise (Fig
21).
Fig 21
To screw off the cone (R, Fig 22) the life centre must be
locked against rotation with the supplied pin (S).

Fig 22
The centring pin can be knocked out to allow deep hole
drilling operations.
Mount the centred workpiece between the spur drive centre
and the tailstock mounted live centre (Fig 23).
Fig 23
Turn the tailstock hand wheel until the live centre well
penetrates the workpiece. Reverse the hand wheel by one
quarter turn and lock the tailstock spindle (M, Fig 21).
Turn the workpiece by hand to see if it rests securely
between centres and can be rotated freely.
Position the tool rest as close to the workpiece as possible.
Tighten locking handles.
For turning between centres the tool rest is set
approximately 3mm higher than centre line (Fig 24, 25 and
26).
Fig 24
Fig 25
Fig 26
6.5 Bowl turning
Turn outside of bowl between centres.
Turn a short tenon the size of the hole in the faceplate
(T, Fig 27).
This will allow centring the workpiece.
Fig 27
Mount the workpiece (A, Fig 28) directly to the face plate
using 4 wood screws (C) from the back. Be careful to use
screws short enough not to interfere with the cutting
process but long enough to hold the workpiece securely to
the face plate.

Fig 28
If screw mounting is not allowed at all, the work may be
glued to a backing block (D) and the backing block screwed
to the face plate. A piece of paper in the glue joint will
prevent damaging the wood when separated later.
Mount the face plate with the workpiece already attached
onto the spindle nose thread and hand tighten.
If reversing spindle rotation, make sure face plate, chuck or
other work holding is secured with the set screws, to avoid
threading loose.
Move tailstock away, remove centre from tailstock to
prevent injury.
Turn the workpiece by hand to see if it rests securely and
can be rotated freely.
Position the tool rest as close to the workpiece as possible.
Tighten locking handles.
For face plate turning the tool rest is set slightly lower than
centre line.
Caution:
Cut with your chisel on the left side of the turning centre
only.
Use left hand to control cutting edge of gouge, while right
hand swings tool handle around toward your body (Fig 29).
Fig 29
Try to make one, very light continuous movement from the
rim to the bottom of the bowl to ensure a clean, sweeping
curve through the workpiece.
Move tool support to the exterior to re-define bottom of
bowl.
6.6 Sanding and Finishing
Remove the tool rest and begin with a fine grit sandpaper
(120 grit) and progress through each grit, using only light
pressure.
Use power sanding techniques to avoid concentric sanding
marks.
Finish sanding with 220 grit.
Apply first coat of finish. Allow to dry before sanding again
with 320 or 400 grit sandpaper.
Turn lathe back on and make a separation cut through the
base. Stop at about dia. 80mm and use a fine tooth saw to
separate the bowl from the waste.
Apply additional finish coats and allow drying before buffing.
7. Setup and adjustments
General note:
Setup and adjustment work may only be carried out
after the machine is protected against accidental
starting by pulling the mains plug.
