3. Specications
Wood turning lathes are typically used to shape
wood into cylindrical proles. Objects made on
a wood lathe include such items as furniture
legs, lamp posts, baseball bats, bowls and
other ornamental forms. Wood lathe tooling
consists of xtures and securing devices for the
work piece, a moveable tool rest, and hand-
held cutting tools.
3.1 Parts of the machine
The lathe consists of a number of major parts,
which are discussed in this manual. Take the
time to read this section and become familiar
with the machine.

3.3 Noise emissions
Equivalent A-weighted Sound pressure level
according to EN ISO 3746: 75.66 dB(A).
Uncertainty, K in decibels: 4.0 dB (A) according
to EN ISO 4871 The gure quoted is emission
levels and are not necessarily safe working
levels. Whilst there is a correlation between the
emission and exposure levels, this cannot be
used reliably to determine whether or not further
precautions are required. Factors that inuence
the actual level of exposure of the workforce
include characteristics of the work room, the
other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the number of
machines and other adjacent processes. Also
the permissible exposure level can vary from
country to country, This information, however,
will enable the user of the machine to make a
better evaluation of the hazard and risk.

• Keep children away. All visitors should be kept
at a safe distance from the work area.
• Make your workshop kid proof with padlocks,
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
• Don‘t force tool. It will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Use right tool. Don‘t force tool or attachment
to do a job for which it was not designed.
• Use proper extension cord. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
• Wear proper apparel do not wear loose
clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or
other jewellery which may get caught in moving
parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
• Always use safety glasses. Also use a face
or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty.
Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant
lenses, they are not safety glasses.
• Secure work. Use clamps or a vice to hold the
work when practical. It‘s safer than using your
hand and it frees both hands to operate the tool.
• Don‘t overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp
and clean for best and safest performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories.
• Disconnect tools before servicing and when
changing accessories, such as blades, bits,
cutters, and the like.
• Reduce the risk of unintentional starting. Make
sure power switch is in the o󰀨 position before
plugging the machine in.
• Use recommended accessories. Consult the
owner‘s manual for recommended accessories.
The use of improper accessories may cause
risk of injury to persons.
• Never stand on tool serious injury could
occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
unintentionally contacted.
• Check damaged parts. Before further use of
the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that
it will operate properly and perform its intended
function - check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may
a󰀨ect its operation. A guard or other part that
is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced.
• Direction of feed. Feed work into a blade or
cutter against the direction of rotation of the
blade or cutter only.
• Never leave tool running unattended. Turn
power o󰀨. Don‘t leave tool until it comes to a
complete stop.

Locking the lathe
It is strongly recommended that the lathe is
never be left unattended in the unlocked
condition.
To lock the machine it is recommended that a
cover (not supplied) is made to lock the control
panel. We have supplied two concepts for
locking the panel (see below). The cover can
be made from wood or plastic.
First, push down the emergency stop. Then
lock the cover together by putting padlocks [not
included] on the two handles on the control
panel. To safeguard your machine from
unauthorized operation and accidental starting
by young children, the use of padlocks is
strongly recommended.

4.2 Electrical connections
Make sure that the power supply meets
the machine‘s requirements (230V). We
recommend using a 16 A breaker, tripping
characteristic C (16/1/C). Note.: Perform
adjustments with the help of a qualied
electrician.

5.1 Unpacking and transport
To unpack your machine you will need tin snips,
a knife, and a wrench.
1. Using the tin snips, cut the banding that is
securing the packing box (If tted).
Extreme caution must be used, because the
banding will spring and could cause injury.

Pic. 21
2. Open the box and remove the parts sent with
the lathe including the rst leg.
Note: The legs are heavy and caution must be
exercised. They are cast iron and if dropped
they will break.
3. Remove the top packaging and remove the
second leg.
4. Remove the lathe bed. It is recommended
that it be lifted with a hoist or forklift using a
„sling“ as it is very heavy.
Note: The machine is heavy. Ensure that you
have enough people to do the job safely. Do not
attempt any procedure that you feel is unsafe,
or that you do not have the physical capability
of achieving.
5. Lower the bed of the lathe onto 2 stacks of
wood. This will allow access to the underside of
the bed.
Pic. 22
Note: Cast iron and steel parts of the machine
are treated with preservative oil against
corrosion, before putting the machine into
operation it is necessary to degrease all these
parts of the machine with technical grade
alcohol or technical gasoline.
5.2 Receiving the lathe
Before you unpack your new machine you will
need to rst inspect the packing, invoice and
shipping documents supplied by the driver.
Insure that there is no visible damage to the
packing or the machine. You need to do this
prior to the driver leaving. All damage must be
noted on the delivery documents and signed
by you and the delivery driver. You must then
contact the seller (Laguna Tools) as soon as
practical. If damage is found after delivery,
contact the seller as soon as is practical.
Note: It is probable that you will nd sawdust
within your machine. This is because the
machine has been tested prior to shipment
from the factory. It must be noted that additional
machine movement can take place between
Laguna Tools and the end user and some
adjustments may have to be undertaken by the
customer. These adjustments are covered in
the various sections of this manual.

5.3 Locating your machine
Before you remove your machine from the
packaging, select the area where you will use
your machine. There are no hard and fast rules
for its location, but below are a few guidelines:
1. There should be su󰀩cient area at the front of
the machine to allow you to work on it
comfortably.
2. There should be su󰀩cient area at the back of
the machine to allow access for adjustments
and maintenance to be conducted.
3. Adequate lighting. The better the lighting the
more accurately and safely you will be able to
work.
4. Solid oor. You should select a solid at oor,
preferably one made of concrete or
something similar.
5. Locate it close to a power source and dust
collection.
6. Allow an area for the storage of blanks,
nished products and tools.
6. Assembly and setup
The machine comes mostly assembled. You will
have to assemble the legs, headstock,
tail stock, tool storage and the tool rest to the
bed of the machine.
Note. It is recommended that the head stock,
tool rest and tail stock be removed from the bed
of the lathe to ease assembly
6.1 Assembling legs to the bed of the lathe
There is a stop at both ends of the bed. The
stop is a safety feature that makes it impossible
for the headstock or tail stock to slide o󰀨 the
end of the bed. Remove the stops and loosen
the clamps on both the head stock, tool rest
and tail stock. Slide them o󰀨 the bed. This will
greatly reduce the weight of the bed and allow
easier assembly. Note: The headstock and tail
stock are very heavy and extreme caution must
be exercised when removing them from the bed
of the lathe. Take care not to cause damage
during removal.

6.2 Cleaning the machine
Remove the rust protection grease with
benzine or a similar solvent. It is important that
you remove all the grease and re-lubricate
with a Teon-based lubricant. (Teon has a
lower tendency to attract sawdust and cause
clogging).
6.3 Fitting the rotating centre
Ensure that the bore of the tail stock is clean.
The rotating centre has a number 2 Morse
Taper that ts into the tail stock. Push the
centre into the tail stock bore rmly, and ensure
that it is securely located. To remove the centre,
rotate the adjusting handle until it is as far back
as possible and this will eject the centre.

6.4 Fitting the drive centre into head stock
To remove the face plate from the head stock
spindle, insert the removal tool into the hole in
the face plate large diameter. Lock the spindle
with the lathe spindle lock and unlock the face
plate by rotating it. Take care not to drop the
faceplate onto the bed of the lathe.
Note: The face plate has a left-hand thread.

6.9 Indexing the spindle
The spindle has 3 sets of indexing holes 14 / 36
/ 48. The selection plunger is located at the
end of the head stock. To move between the 3
sets of holes, loosen the clamp knobs and
slide the indexing plunger assembly to align
with the selected hole set. Clamp in position
with the clamp knobs. Try the plunger in a
few di󰀨erent holes to check that it inserts
and removes smoothly. The indexing plunger
is spring loaded and this is used only to
temporarily align the plunger in the selected
hole. To x the plunger in a selected hole, it
must be attached to the housing by screwing
into the clamped position. There is a hole
selection indicator that allows you to view which
hole in a selected hole set has been selected.

7. Maintenance
General
Keep your machine clean. At the end of each
day, clean the machine. Wood contains
moisture, and if sawdust or wood chips are not
removed they will cause rust. In general, we
recommend that you only use a Teon-based
lubricant on the lathe. Regular oil attracts dust
and dirt. Teon lubricant tends to dry and has
less of a tendency to accumulate dirt and saw
dust.
Periodically check that all nuts and bolts are
tight.
Drive belt
The drive belt should last for many years
(depending on the usage) but needs to be
inspected regularly for cracks, cuts and general
wear. If damage is found, replace the belt.
Bearings
All bearings are sealed for life and do not
require any maintenance. If a bearing becomes
faulty, replace it.
Rust
The lathe is made from steel and cast iron. All
none-painted surfaces will rust if not protected.
It is recommended that they be protected by
applying wax or a Teon- based lubricant to
them.
Centre point alignment and slide
clearance adjustment
The centre point alignment and slide clearance
are adjusted at the factory and no adjustment
should be required. Should movement or wear
have taken place, the following adjustment
procedure should be conducted. Note: The

be needed prior to adjusting the centre point
alignment.
Centre points aligned
Pic. 55
Slide adjustment
Loosen the clamp handle on the tail stock and
check for side movement. If it is excessive,
insert an Allen key into the adjusting screw and
tighten.
Note: By rotating the adjustment screw, it
moves into the adjusting slot which opens and
removes the excessive clearance between the
tail stock and the bed.
Note: Only make very small adjustments and
then recheck the clearance. After adjustment
Centre points aligned the tail stock should be
slid along the bed to check for any area that it
binds in the bed slot. The same procedure as
above should be conducted on the head stock
should it be required.
Note: It is very unlikely that the headstock will
require adjustment as it is not moved as often
as the tail stock, so has less tendency‘s for ware.

Pic. 58
Center point alignment
The tail stock has two clamp screws that are
accessible from the top of the tail stock.
The clamp screws hold the slide plate to the tail
stock casting. There is clearance in the holes
that allows the tail stock to be moved in relation
to the slide plate. The headstock also has two
clamp screws, but one is accessible from under
the headstock.
By loosening the clamp screws the headstock
and tail stock can be moved and the centre
points aligned.
Note: It is recommended that the head stock be
adjusted and not the tail stock. If the tail stock is
not adjusted parallel to the bed slide, the centre
point will not be in alignment when the spindle
is extended or retracted.
1. Loosen the clamp screw that is accessible
from the top on the head stock.
2. Tap the side of the headstock with a rubber
mallet close to the base in the direction
requiring adjustment and retighten the clamp
screw.
3. Recheck the centre point alignment and
repeat if required.
Note: Never hit any part of the lathe that is cast
iron with a metal hammer or similar as it will
break the casting.

8. Troubleshooting
Lathe will not start
1. Check that the start switch is in the correct
position.
2. Check that the electrical power cord is
plugged into the power outlet.
3. Check that the electrical supply is on (reset
the breaker).
4. With the power disconnected from the
machine, check that the wiring to the plug is
correct. Check that the rubber insulation is
stripped enough and is not causing a bad con-
nection. Check that all the screws are tight.
5. Emergency stop button engaged. Reset
emergency stop button. Twist and it will pop out.
The machine will not stop
This is a very rare occurrence as the machine is
designed to be fail-safe. If it should occur
and you cannot x the fault, seek professional
assistance. The machine must be disconnected
from the power and never run until the fault has
been rectied.
1. The stop switch is faulty. Replace the stop
switch.
Motor tries to start but will not turn
1. With the power disconnected from the
machine, try to turn the spindle by hand. If
the spindle will not turn, check the reason for
jamming.
2. Capacitor faulty. Replace the capacitor.
3. Motor faulty. Replace the motor.
4. Power line overloaded. Correct overloaded
condition.
5. Low voltage. Correct low voltage condition.
Motor overheats
The motor is designed to run hot, but should it
overheat it has an internal thermal overload
protector that will shut it down until the motor
has cooled, and then it will reset automatically.
If the motor overheats, wait until it has cooled
and restart. If the motor shuts down consistently
check for the reason. Typical reasons are dull
cutting tools, the motor cooling fan being
clogged or faulty, the motor cooling ns are
clogged, overfeeding the job, and excessive
ambient temperature.
Squeaking noise
1. Check that the motor cooling fan is not con-
tacting the fan cover.
2. Check the bearings.
3. Check the drive belt is tensioned correctly.
Spindle slows down during a cut
1. Dull cutting tools. Replace the tool or have it
re-sharpened.
2. Feeding the wood too fast. Slow down the
feed rate.
3. Oil or dirt on the drive belt. Clean or replace
the drive belt.
4. Drive belt loose. Re-tension drive belt.
Machine vibrates
1. Machine not level on the oor. Re-level the
machine ensuring that it has no movement.
2. Damaged drive belt. Replace the belt.
3. Job is not balanced. Change to slower speed
and/ or balance the job.
4. Damaged pulley. Replace the pulley.
5. Worn spindle bearing. Replace the bearing.
