Wear personal protective equipment!
(Safety goggles, safety shoes, hearing protection, dust mask)
Danger of being drawn in! Long hair, loose clothing, watches, jewellery, scarves etc. can be caught by the
rotating movement of the spindle and/or workpiece. Always wear close-fitting clothes, take off watches,
jewellery, scarves, etc. and wear a hair net or suitable headgear if necessary.
The machine may only be used as intended (for details see section 4).
Always work with all protective devices! These must be in the right places and in perfect working order.
Defective guards must be replaced immediately.
Do not start turning before the spindle has reached the set speed.
Be aware of the danger of the workpiece being thrown away if the workpiece is not clamped correctly or
sufficiently. Generally check that the workpiece is clamped securely before switching on the machine.
After changing the chuck, always remove the spanner or clamping pin immediately.
Before clamping a workpiece into the chuck, between the turning centres or onto the faceplate, remove
all loose knots and bark.
When using a faceplate, the workpiece must be fastened to it well and securely. Only use screws of ade-
quate diameter and length for this purpose.
Do not re-clamp workpieces that have already been turned on a faceplate at a later time, as clean concen-
tricity can no longer be expected due to the fact that “wood is working”.
Do not re-clamp workpieces already turned between two centres at a later date if the original centres
have been changed or removed.
If you want to re-clamp a workpiece at a later time, start with the lowest speed and increase it only after a
smooth concentricity has been achieved again.
Never reach over the rotating workpiece and place your turning tools so that you do not have to reach
over the rotating workpiece to reach them.
If a workpiece is to be machined between two centres, make sure that the tailstock is correctly adjusted
and all clamping levers (longitudinal adjustment, quill) are securely tightened.
For newly clamped workpieces, start with the lowest spindle speed. If a workpiece is rough turned at too
high a speed (in order to round it) vibrations can occur which can dangerously eject the workpiece and/or
tear the tool out of your hand.

Always turn the workpiece by hand first before switching on the spindle. If the workpiece comes into con-
tact with the tool rest, it can splinter or be dangerously flung away.
Only use tools that are suitable for the respective operation and always make sure that the tool used does
not damage the wood. Damaged wood can splinter when the spindle is running, be dangerously flung
away or tear the tool out of your hand.
Never use blunt or damaged woodturning tools.
Always hold the woodturning tool firmly and securely with both hands and take special precautions if the
workpiece has holes or knots in it.
Never adjust the tool rest while the spindle is running! Before adjusting the tool rest in vertical or horizon-
tal position, the machine must be switched off.
The tool rest must be positioned as close as possible (approx. 1 to 3 mm) to the workpiece.
The height of the tool rest must always be adapted to the selected tool and the operation to be carried
out. To do this, read and follow the instructions in section 10.5.
When working with the tool rest, always make sure that the tool rests well on the tool rest before feeding
it to the workpiece and starting the turning work.
Always position your hands so that they cannot slip onto the rotating workpiece.
Shift or remove the tool rest when it is not needed for an operation.
Refrain from any kind of machining while holding the workpiece in your hand.
Damaged parts of the machine or defective tools must be replaced with new ones.
Repairs may only be carried out by qualified personnel with the main switch locked.
Do not clamp and machine wooden discs with shrinkage cracks or split workpieces! The workpiece may
burst due to centrifugal force and cause serious injuries..
When turning wooden discs, do not stand in the possible flight circle of the workpiece.
For spindle turning, only process wood whose fibres run parallel to the spindle axis.
If possible, always clamp long and narrow longitudinal timbers between two peaks.
Longitudinal timbers that are only clamped into the chuck on one side over a turned-on tenon must not be
too long. Rule of thumb: max. workpiece length = tenon diameter x 4. Otherwise use tailstock centre.
For faceplate turning, only use wood whose fibres run perpendicular to the spindle axis.
Wood to be machined crosswise is usually clamped onto the spindle via a faceplate, screw chuck or jaw
chuck. With larger blanks, it makes sense to use the tailstock centre as a support.
Before attaching a faceplate, it must be roughly pre-machined at slow speed so that it is as round as possi-
ble. This reduces the risk of possible vibrations when turning the workpiece. The workpiece must always
be properly fixed on the faceplate, otherwise it can be dangerously thrown away!
When working between the centres, drill centring holes with a diameter of at least 5 mm.
Never carry out measuring work on the workpiece while the spindle is running..
For workpiece & chuck change, measuring, cleaning etc. switch off and lock the main switch.
No unintended tools, such as drilling inserts, reamers, milling cutters, round brushes, polishing wheels,
etc., may be installed into the headstock spindle.
After switching off the spindle, never brake the spinning workpiece by hand..
Finish all hand grinding work before removing the workpiece from the clamping device.
Note the risk of fire and explosion due to dust formation or material accumulation.
Only operate the spindle lock when the spindle is stationary and the main switch is locked.
Fire hazard! Dust collection equipment must be located outdoors or in a room that is at least fire-retard-
ant and separate from the working room.
Do not clean the machine or workpiece with compressed air (use a hand brush).
Do not wear gloves when working with the copy woodturning lathe!
Generally switch off and lock the main switch after finishing work.

4.3 Construction-related Safety Devices
The machine construction already includes the following safety precautions::
•The main switch can be locked to protect the machine against unauthorised/unintentional switch-on during
standstill as well as during repair and maintenance work.
•The chip guard cover with viewing window protects the eyes and face from flying chips and dust during
machining.
•Above the turning spindle there is a sign indicating the correct direction of rotation.
•The turning spindle has a mechanical spindle lock for changing the chuck, which is activated via a spring
lever. As long as the lever is pressed inwards, the rotation of the spindle is blocked.
4.4 Electrical Safety Devices
•The service door on the left side of the machine is equipped with an internal safety switch. This prevents the
machine from being switched on when the door is open.
•The machine is equipped with an emergency stop button on the front control panel. This immediately puts
the machine out of operation in case of danger.
•Undervoltage protection: In the event of a voltage interruption, the machine is brought to a standstill, where
it remains even when the voltage is reconnected. To restart the spindle, it must be switched on again.
•Protection against electric shock: The housing of the machine and the drives are protected against electric
shock with a neutral line.
•Dust and water protection: The control cabinet and motor are protected against contact, dust and splash
water on all sides with protection class IP54.
•Short circuit protection: The machine is equipped with overload protection for the motor (thermal switch).

5.3 Emission Levels
5.3.1 Noise Information
The values given are emission levels and therefore do not necessarily represent safe workplace values. Alt-
hough there is a correlation between emission and immission levels, it cannot be reliably deduced whether ad-
ditional precautionary measures are necessary or not.
Factors that may affect the current immission level at the workplace include the duration of exposure, the na-
ture of the workspace, other noise sources, etc., e.g. the number of machines and other activities in the vicin-
ity. The permissible workplace values can also vary from country to country.
However, this information should enable the user to make a better assessment of hazard and risk.
5.3.2 Noise Emission Values
Explanation of noise emission
Weighted level: Noise pressure in idle state
LpfA = 85 dB
Uncertainty: K = 3 dB
Weighted level of noise power at the workplace
LwA = 101 dB
Uncertainty: K = 3 dB at error limit interval 95 %
The workplace-related noise emission values of the machine exceed 85 dB(A)!
Therefore, suitable hearing protection must be provided to the personnel!
5.4 Workplace Requirements
The space required for the installation site of the machine is approx. 2500 x 1800 mm. In general, provide
sufficient space around the machine and also calculate the required workplace for the operating personnel
as well as sufficient space for the repair and maintenance personnel.
•Choose a suitable place for the
machine and consider the work-
ing areas shown in the figure.
•The chosen location must guar-
antee a suitable connection to
the mains supply and to an ex-
ternal extraction system.
•Around the machine, sufficient
free space must be ensured for
all activities to be carried out.
•Sufficient lighting (min. 500 lux)
must be ensured.
Figure 3: Working area
•The lighting must not dazzle and a stroboscopic effect must be avoided.
•Make sure that the floor can support the load of the machine. The machine must be levelled at the four
levelling supports simultaneously with a machine spirit level.

7Installation and Connection
7.1 Check Delivery Conditions
Check the consignment for completeness and possible transport damage. In case of transport damage, please
keep the packaging and inform the shipping company and the manufacturer immediately! Later complaints can-
not be accepted.
7.2 Transport
Lifting and transporting the machine must be carried out by qualified persons who have the required experi-
ence and equipment.
Please take great care when loading and unloading the machine. The necessary measures
must be taken to avoid impacts, damage as well as injuries to persons. When transporting,
also pay attention to the existing danger of tipping over!
The machine is delivered on a transport pallet and is bolted to the bottom of the pallet. The centre of gravity of
the machine is approximately in the middle of the pallet. The machine may only be transported using suitable
aids, e.g. a forklift truck, lift truck or indoor crane with a load capacity sufficient for the weight of the machine
(net 450 kg).
7.2.1 Unloading with a Forklift Truck
Danger to life under suspended loads when transporting with a forklift truck or crane. Stay-
ing under a suspended load is prohibited! In addition, make sure that no objects fall down
during transport by forklift truck / crane. Do not leave loose objects, accessories or tools on
the machine.
Figure 5: Unloading with a forklift truck
Caution! The forks of the forklift truck
must be at least 1200 mm long!
•Move the forks of the forklift truck centrally be-
tween the pallet timbers and feed the forks as
shown in Figure 5.
•Lift the pallet by a few centimetres and move
the machine to the immediate vicinity of the in-
stallation site.
•Dismantle the pallet screw connections on the
machine feet required for transport.
•Also remove all accessories that are on the pallet or that are packed separately in a box and fix all clamp-
ing levers of the movable components.
•As the machine cannot be driven under due to its design, it cannot be lifted off the pallet with a forklift
truck. The machine must therefore be lifted with an indoor crane or a comparable lifting device with suffi-
cient lifting capacity (net weight of the machine approx. 400 kg). The procedure for this is described in detail
in the next section 7.2.2.
Danger to life when using a forklift truck! Keep a sufficient distance from the forklift truck
and watch its speed. Vehicles with combustion engines also produce toxic exhaust gases.
Wear a breathing mask if necessary.
