BEFORE USING YOUR MACHINE
To avoid serious injury and damage to the tool, read and
follow all of the Safety and Operating Instructions before
operating the machine.
1. Some dust created by using power tools
contains chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other
• masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area and work
with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to lter out microscopic
particles.
2. READ the entire Owner’s Manual. LEARN how to use
the tool for its intended applications.
3. GROUND ALL TOOLS. If the tool is supplied with a 3
prong plug, it must be plugged into a 3-contact electrical
receptacle. The 3rd prong is used to ground the tool and
provide protection against accidental electric shock. DO
NOT remove the 3rd prong. See Grounding Instructions
on the following pages.
4. AVOID A DANGEROUS WORKING ENVIRONMENT.
DO NOT use electrical tools in a damp environment or
expose them to rain.
5. DO NOT use electrical tools in the presence of

24. STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING,
AND USE COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING A
POWER TOOL.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
26. USE A PROPER EXTENSION CORD IN GOOD
CONDITION. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. The table on the following page shows the cor-
rect size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
amperage rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the larger diameter of the
extension cord. If in doubt of the proper size of an exten-
sion cord, use a shorter and thicker cord. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of
power and overheating.
USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS
A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE
RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL’S PLUG.

INHALING DANGEROUS DUST OR AIRBORNE
PARTICLES, including wood dust, crystalline silica dust
and asbestos dust. Direct particles away from face and
body. Always operate tool in well ventilated area and
provide for proper dust removal. Use dust collection
system wherever possible. Exposure to the dust may
cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury,
including silicosis (a serious lung disease), cancer, and
death. Avoid breathing the dust, and avoid prolonged
contact with dust. Allowing dust to get into your mouth
or eyes, or lay on your skin may promote absorption of
harmful material. Always use properly tting NIOSH/OSHA
approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust
exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and water.
12. KEEP PROTECTIVE GUARDS IN PLACE AND IN
WORKING ORDER.
13. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure that
the power switch is in the “OFF” position before plugging
in the power cord to the electrical receptacle.
14. REMOVE ALL MAINTENANCE TOOLS from the
immediate area prior to turning “ON” the machine.
15. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Use

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THE USE OF AN EXTENSION CORD
WITH THIS MACHINE IS NOT RECOMMENDED. For
best power and safety, plug the machine directly into a
dedicated, grounded electrical outlet that is within the
supplied cord length of the machine.
If an extension cord needs to be used, it should only be
for a limited operation of the machine. The extension
cord should be as short as possible in length, and have
a minimum gauge size of 14AWG.
Check extension cords before each
use. If damaged replace immediately. Never use a tool
with a damaged cord, since touching the damaged
area could cause electrical shock, resulting in serious
injury.
Use a proper extension cord. Only use cords listed by
Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Other extension cords can
cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of power
and overheating of tool. When operating a power tool out-
doors, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”.
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk
of electric shock.
DO NOT MODIFY ANY PLUG. If it will not t the electrical
receptacle, have the proper electrical receptacle installed
by a qualied electrician.
IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION of the
equipment grounding conductor can result in risk of
electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation
(with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment ground-
ing conductor. DO NOT connect the equipment grounding
conductor to a live terminal if repair or replacement
of the electric cord or plug is necessary.
CHECK with a qualied electrician or service personnel if
you do not completely understand the grounding
instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly
grounded when installing or replacing a plug.
USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS
THE PROPER TYPE OF A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG
THAT MATCHES THE MACHINE’S 3-PRONG PLUG AND
ALSO THE 3-POLE RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE
TOOL’S PLUG. *
REPLACE A DAMAGED OR WORN CORD
IMMEDIATELY.
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
electrical receptacle as shown in FIGURE A. It shows a
3-wire electrical plug and electrical receptacle that has
a grounding conductor. If a properly grounded electrical
receptacle is not available, an adapter as shown in
FIGURE B can be used to temporarily
connect this plug to a 2-contact ungrounded
receptacle. The adapter has a rigid lug
extending from it that MUST be connected
to a permanent earth ground, such as a
properly grounded receptacle box.
THIS ADAPTER IS PROHIBITED IN
CANADA.
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN,
grounding provides the path of least resistance for electric
current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool
is equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment
grounding conductor and requires a grounding plug (not
included). The plug MUST be plugged into a matching elec-
trical receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.
THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED
WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM
ELECTRIC SHOCK.
EXTENSION CORDS
Keep the extension cord clear of
the working area. Position the cord so that it will not
get caught on lumber, tools or other obstructions while
you are working with your power tool.
* Canadian electrical codes require extension cords
to be certied SJT type or better.
** The use of an adapter in Canada is not acceptable.

LATHE BED EXTENSIONS - (OPTIONAL)
FIG. 7
FIG. 8
The 70-1420VSR Lathe features a cast iron bed with three
sides machined to add bed extensions which will expand
the work capabilities for turning. Extensions easily bolt onto
the lathe for solid support. Extensions and Lathe Stand
accessories are sold separately. See page 22.
RIGHT BED END: To extend the spindle turning length
between centers, the addition of a lathe bed extension is
needed. There are two extension options:
- #70-903 This 13-1/2” Bed Extension extends the lathe’s
maximum spindle length from 16-1/2” to 30”. If the lathe is
mounted on a stand, a stand extension is not needed. FIG. 7.
- #70-901 This 24” Bed Extension expands the working
spindle length from 16-1/2” to 40-1/2”. If the lathe is mount-
ed on a stand (#70-920), the lathe Stand Extension (#70-
913) is needed to support the added bed length. FIG. 8.
LEFT BED END: To extend the swing over the lathe bed
for larger diameter turning of bowls and platters, the
addition of a bed extension on the left, headstock end of
the lathe is provided for outboard turning.
- #70-903 The mounting of the 13-1/2” Bed Extension will
expand the lathe’s swing from 12” over the lathe bed, to 15”
over this outboard extension bed. FIG. 9.
FIG. 10
4. SPEED RPM KNOB: (FIG. 6, D) This knob controls the
desired spindle revolutions per minute (RPM). The lathe
has three speed ranges; 150-650, 400-1550, 850-3850
RPM. Spindle speeds are shown on the LCD Display (E). See the Speed Chart (FIG. 3, page 9) for recommended
speeds based on the diameter of the workpieces.
FRONT of BED: To expand the positioning of tool rests for
improved turning of rims and rear portions of bowls and
platters, the front on the lathe bed is machined for the
addition of a short bed extension.

OPERATION
OUTBOARD BOWL & PLATTER TURNING
With the optional #70-903 13-1/2” Extension mounted on the left, outboard
end of the lathe (FIG. 9 & 11), faceplates or chucks can be mounted on
the outboard end of the spindle. This end has the same 1-1/4” x 8TPI RH
threading as the inboard spindle end. For outboard turning, the spindle
needs to rotate in the REVERSE direction. For turning:
1. To remove the Handwheel (#28B), loosen the 2 Set Screws. Then use
the 38mm Wrench on the at portion of the Handwheel and 46mm Wrench
on the large Locking Nut (#27B) to loosen the handwheel from the spin-
dle. Rotate the handwheel counter-clockwise to fully remove it from the
spindle. See Figure 15, parts E and F on page 14.
2. Faceplates or Chucks holding workpieces can now be mounted on the
outboard spindle for turning.
3. Remove the tool rest assembly from the lathe bed, and mount it on the
lathe bed extension for turning. For this:
- Loosen the lathe bed’s end Screw (#1A) with the 5mm Hex Wrench then
rotate the safety Washer (#2A) downward so the tailstock and tool rest can
be removed.
- Release the tailstock’s locking handle and slide the tailstock o󰀨 of the
lathe bed.
- Release the tool rest base’s locking handle and slide the tool rest base
assembly o󰀨 of the lathe bed.
- Remount the tool rest base assembly with
tool rest onto the 13-1/2” outboard extension
so it can be used for turning. FIG.11.
- Remount the tailstock onto the lathe bed
and reset the safety end washer in place for
security.
USING MAGNETIC BASE LIGHTS & ACCESSORIES
The 70-1420VSR lathe is designed with at headstock and tailstock metal
surfaces for attaching magnetic based lights, storage bowls or other acces-
sories. The headstock lid is tted with a steel plate just for this purpose. The
cast iron tailstock’s top surface o󰀨ers a generous 7-3/8” (90mm) long x 1-1/2”
(35mm) wide at surface. See page 23 for the 12-202 LED Light shown.

ADJUSTMENTS
CENTER POINT ALIGNMENT
The Spur and Live Centers points are pre-set at the factory, but,
upon receipt of the lathe their alignment should be checked in
case some movement during shipping has occurred.
- Rotate the centers to ensure that the points do not wobble.
- The tailstock should slide along the lathe bed without binding.
The side clearance of the tailstock in the bed gap is absolutely
minimal and so no adjustments to the tailstock are required.
- The headstock is fastened to the lathe bed with 4 bolts (#20B).
By loosening these bolts, the headstock can be moved slightly
to align the Spur Center point to the Live Center Point.
- Once aligned, secure the headstock bolts.
NOTE: Periodically check the alignment of the centers to
make sure there has been no movement from working.

ADJUSTMENTS
1. Unplug the lathe from the power source.
2. Open the top Headstock Cover (#14B, FIG. 12, A) and
the left side, Bed Cover Plate Door (#5A, B) to gain access
to the belt and pulleys that are inside of the headstock.
3. Loosen the motor mount locking cam-action Handle (#18A).
- Pull the handle forward to unlock. FIG. 12, C.
- Push the handle up to release the belt tension.
4. - Change the belt position on the two pulleys.
The Poly-V-Belt (#29B) can now be re-positioned on the
upper Spindle Pulley (#24B) and lower Motor Pulley (#10A,
FIG. 12, D) for the desired speed range setting. FIG. 13
shows the belt positions for the three speeds.
NOTE: The ‘High’ speed range (850-3850 RPM) provides
maximum speed. The ‘Low’ speed range (150-650 RPM)
will provide maximum torque. See the Speed Chart on page
9, FIG. 3, for recommended speeds based on the diameter
of the workpieces being turned.
5. With the Poly-V-Belt positioned on the pulleys, lower the
Motor Connecting Plate so that the weight of the motor pro-
vides the needed tension on the belt. Then re-tighten the
locking cam Handle that was loosened in step 3, above.
- Push the handle down and then backward to set the
belt tension and lock it in place.
6. Close the Headstock Cover and Bed Cover Plate Door
to protect the belt, pulleys and internal working from dust.

ADJUSTING THE LOCKING HANDLES
The locking handles on the Tailstock and Tool Rest Base
are pre-set at the factory to give ample holding pressure
against the lathe bed to keep these lathe assemblies
positioned, so that they will not move during use.
If adjustments are needed, the clamping pressure can be
changed by turning the large Hex Nuts (#15C & 9D) that
are located under the lathe bed and below the assemblies.
This is done with a 16mm (5/8”) or adjustable wrench (not
included). FIG. 14 shows the tool rest removed from the
lathe bed to view the locking mechanism and Hex Nut (A).
1. Loosen the Locking Handle (B) so that there is no
clamping pressure being exerted on the lathe assembly.
2. With a wrench, slightly turn the Hex Nut to loosen or
tighten it on its Threaded Shaft (#12C &79D).
3. Test the clamping pressure with the locking handle, and
adjust the nut again, if needed, to set the right pressure.

ADJUSTMENTS
Changing the belt requires that the headstock spindle be
removed, or half removed, from the headstock casting.
Then the new belt can be slipped over the spindle and
down inside of the headstock to the motor pulley.
1. Unplug the lathe from the power source and remove any
accessories from the spindle - spur center, face plate, etc..
2. Open the top Headstock Cover (#14B, FIG. 15, A) and
the left side, Bed Cover Plate Door (#5A, B) to gain access
to the belt and pulleys that are inside of the headstock.
3. Loosen the motor mount locking cam-action Handle (#18A).
- Pull the handle forward to unlock. FIG. 15, C.
- Push up the handle to release the belt tension.
4. Remove the Belt (#29B) from the lower Motor Pulley
(#10A; FIG. 15, D). NOTE: If the belt is not to be saved,
the old belt can be cut o󰀨 at this time.
5. To remove the Handwheel (#28B, FIG. 15, E), loosen
the 2 Set Screws. Then use the 38mm Wrench on the at
portion of the Handwheel and 46mm Wrench on the large
Locking Nut (#27B, FIG. 15, F) to loosen the handwheel
from the spindle. Rotate the handwheel counter-clockwise
to fully remove it from the spindle.
6. Remove the large Locking Nut (#27B) in a counter-
clockwise rotation with the supplied 48mm wrench and then
remove the large Washer (#26B) behind the nut.
7. At the opposite inboard side of the headstock, remove
the Bearing End Plate (#6B) by unscrewing the 3 hex head
Screws (#5B) with a 3mm hex wrench. FIG. 16, P.
8. Remove and loosen the Set Screws (FIG. 16, H) that
attach the Spindle Pulley (#24B) to the spindle. The pulley
should now be loose on the spindle. NOTE: There are two
(2) set screws (#22B & 23B), one on top of the other, in both
of the two (2) threaded holes. This stacking keeps the set
screws from loosening during use.
9. Carefully knock the spindle, towards the tailstock. Use
a block of wood against the left spindle end to prevent any
damage when it is hit with a mallet/hammer. The spindle
pulley, spacers, sleeve and bearings will all slide along the
spindle. See page 19 for the spindle diagram assembly.
Once there is enough space, the old drive belt can be
removed around the spindle end, and replaced with the
new belt. Figure 16.
10. Re-install the spindle and parts back into the head-
stock casting. As in step 9, very carefully knock the spindle
and bearings back into place with a block of wood and
mallet.
CHANGING THE BELT
FIG. 16
11. Re-assemble the remaining headstock parts by revers-
ing the procedure previously described.
12. Secure the spindle pulley in place on the spindle with
the set screws. Make sure that the set screws engage back
onto the at sections on the spindle to eliminate slippage.
13. Position the new belt on the spindle and motor pulleys
and set the tension as described on page 13 for ‘Changing
Belt Speeds’.

CHANGING THE BEARINGS
To change the bearings, the whole spindle shaft needs to
be shifted right, out of the headstock, towards the tailstock.
Then the bearings can be removed from the headstock
casting. With the new bearings in place, the spindle shaft
assembly can be re-installed, so turning can be resumed.
1. Follow the steps 1-9 described in CHANGING THE
BELT on page 14 to remove the spindle assembly from the
headstock.
2. Carefully knock out the old bearings. Use a block of
wood against the bearings to prevent any damage to the
machine if mistakenly hit with a mallet/hammer. Bearings
on the spindle can be removed with a gear pulley, if
available.
THE MACHINE MUST NOT BE
PLUGGED IN AND THE POWER SWITCH MUST BE IN THE
OFF POSITION UNTIL ALL ADJUSTMENTS ARE COMPLETE.
3. Install the new Bearings (#7B) on the spindle or in the
headstock casting, by carefully knocking them into position.
4. Re-assemble the lathe parts by reversing the procedure
described in steps 10 - 13 as described in the CHANGING
THE BELT instructions on page 14.
NOTE: The lathe’s ball bearings are lifetime lubricated,
sealed, and do not need any further care. To prevent
slipping, keep the drive belt free of oil and grease.
SPINDLE INDEXING ADJUSTMENTS
The Headstock Spindle has 24 indexing holes, each 15°
apart, which allows accurate pattern work on projects such
as straight uting, grooving, drilling, detail carving, wood
burning patterns, laying out designs and more.
The Indexing Chart, FIG. 17, shows how to rotate the
spindle to access any of the 24 indexing holes. The 8 pri-
mary settings are listed in FIG. 18, however, other indexing
design settings are possible. Vary the index combinations
to make non-equal, spaced patterns. Also, by rotating/
re-positioning your work while it is being held between
centers, in a chuck or on a faceplate, new orientation
points for the index holes will be set for your work.
To Use: Insert the Indexing Pin into one of the 24 spindle’s
positioning holes according to the chart, and the number of
setting you need for your workpiece. Make sure that the pin
locates and securely enters into one of the indexing holes
so that there is no accidental slipping.

MAINTENANCE
1. Before each use:
- Check the power cord and plug for any wear or damage.
- Check for any loose screws, hardware, locking handles,
jigs or various lathe accessories.
- Check the area to make sure it is clear of any misplaced
tools, lumber, cleaning supplies, etc. that could hamper the
safe operation of the machine.
2. Avoid a build-up of wood shavings and dust. Regularly
clean all parts of the machine using a soft cloth, brush or
compressed air. A general cleaning should be done after
every use to avoid future problems and ensure that the
machine is in ready condition for its next use.
Turn the power switch “OFF” and disconnect the plug from the outlet prior to adjusting or maintaining
the machine. DO NOT attempt to repair or maintain the electrical components of the motor. Contact a qualied service
technician for this type of maintenance.
3. Keep the lathe bed free of resin and rust. Clean it
regularly with a non-flammable solvent, then coat with a
light film of dry lubricant spray, or wax, to enhance passage
of the tool rest and tailstock on/over the bed.
4. Keep the lathe tools sharp, and make sure the steel is
not loose in the handles so that no accidents might occur.
Making sure that tools are in proper operating condition
will ensure that the quality of your turning will be the best
possible.
5. Check all lathe accessories (spur centers, live centers,
chucks, tool rests, etc) to ensure that they are in perfect
working condition.
6. The lathe’s ball bearings are lifetime lubricated, sealed,
and do not need any further care. Keep the drive belt free
of oil and grease to prevent slipping on the pulleys.
WARNING: If blowing sawdust, wear a proper dust mask
and eye protection to prevent debris from being inhaled and
blowing into your eyes.
