SECTION 1: SAFETY for Your Own Safety, Read instruction Manual before Operating This Machine The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention measures.
WEARiNG PROPER APPAREL. do not wear clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become entangled in moving parts. always tie back or cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally contacting cutting tool or moving parts. HAzARDOuS DuST. dust created by machinery operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust hazards associated with each workpiece material.
Additional Safety for Wood Lathes Serious injury or death can occur from getting entangled in, crushed between, or struck by rotating parts on a lathe! Rotating workpieces can come loose and strike operator or bystanders with deadly force if they are improperly secured, rotated too fast, or are not strong enough for the rotational forces required for turning. improper tool setup or usage can cause tool kickback or grabbing, resulting in impact injury or entanglement.
SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY Availability Before installing the machine, consider the availability and proximity of the required power supply circuit. if an existing circuit does not meet the requirements for this machine, a new circuit must be installed. to minimize the risk of electrocution, fire, or equipment damage, installation work and electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or qualified service personnel in accordance with all applicable codes and standards.
Grounding & Plug Requirements this machine MuSt be grounded. in the event of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. this machine is equipped with a power cord that has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding plug. only insert plug into a matching receptacle (outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
SECTION 3: SETUP Needed for Setup This machine presents serious injury hazards to untrained users.

Cleanup the unpainted surfaces of your machine are coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that prevents corrosion during shipment and storage. this rust preventative works extremely well, but it will take a little time to clean. Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your machine. the time you spend doing this now will give you a better appreciation for the proper care of your machine's unpainted surfaces.
Site Considerations Weight Load Physical Environment refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight of your machine. Make sure that the surface upon which the machine is placed will bear the weight of the machine, additional equipment that may be installed on the machine, and the heaviest workpiece that will be used. additionally, consider the weight of the operator and any dynamic loading that may occur when operating the machine.
Assembly the machine must be fully assembled before it can be operated. Before beginning the assembly process, refer to Needed for Setup and gather all listed items. to ensure the assembly process goes smoothly, first clean any parts that are covered or coated in heavy-duty rust preventative (if applicable). 2. Position end supports between tops of legs and attach each support with (6) M8-1.25 x 16 carriage bolts, (6) 8mm flat washers, and (6) M8-1.25 hex nuts (see Figure 14).
Test Run 5. Attach each of (3) copy attachment handwheel handles to the hub, then tighten pre-installed jam nuts against hub (see Figure 16). once assembly is complete, test run the machine to ensure it is properly connected to power and safety components are functioning correctly. Hub Jam Nut Handle Figure 16. Copy attachment handwheel handles attached to hub.
3. 4. Verify machine is operating correctly by turning machine ON. — When operating correctly, machine runs smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. The spindle speed lever adjusts pulley width to change spindle speed. To prevent damage to this mechanism, lathe MUST be running before using variable speed lever. — Investigate and correct strange or unusual noises or vibrations before operating machine further.
SECTION 4: OPERATIONS Operation Overview the purpose of this overview is to provide the novice machine operator with a basic understanding of how the machine is used during operation, so the machine controls/components discussed later in this manual are easier to understand. due to the generic nature of this overview, it is not intended to be an instructional guide.
Typical Copy Operations 1. Operator examines workpiece to make sure it is suitable for cutting. No extreme bows, knots, or cracks should exist. 2. Prepares and trims workpiece with a bandsaw or table saw to make it roughly concentric. 3. Installs workpiece between centers, and installs template or master spindle. 4. Adjusts cutting tool and stylus to just touch workpiece and template or master spindle. 5. Ties back long hair and clothing and puts on safety glasses, face shield, and respirator. 6.
Installing/Removing Copy Attachment The copy attachment needs to be installed for copy operations, but once these are complete you should remove the copy attachment since it can interfere with typical turning operations. 3. Loosen template support centers and allow template support to drop down (see Figure 21). 4. Remove pre-installed mounting screw and use it to attach extension spring to shaft, as shown in Figure 21.
6. Loosen cap screw shown in Figure 23, insert cutting tool into tool spindle with point facing out and flat side facing up, then tighten cap screw to secure cutting tool. Copy Attachment Operation Max. Workpiece Dimensions................32" x 8" Minimum Workpiece Width:...........................1" Cap Screw The Model G0842 copy attachment enables you to easily reproduce stair spindles or chair/table legs using a template or master spindle, as shown in Figure 24.
Tip: Save time during duplication by removing the corners from all of the spindles you plan on creating (see Figure 45 on Page 34) before operating the copy attachment. You will need to make the cuts with a lathe chisel on your tool rest, prior to installing the copy attachment.

5. Position stylus (see Figure 27) on smallest diameter of master spindle or template (see Figure 28). Lock Handle Cutting Tool Adjustment Handwheel Workpiece Stylus Figure 27. Copy attachment controls and main components. 7. Use copy attachment handwheel to move cutting tool clear of workpiece (see Figure 29). 8. Adjust copy attachment chip guard (see Figure 29) as necessary so it does not make contact with workpiece or interfere with turning operation.
11. After each pass, extend cutting tool another 1 ⁄16" (maximum), and repeat with another pass. — If cutting tool tends to bite or gouge workpiece, back off cutting tool slightly and try again. Be conservative when removing stock. 12. Turn lathe OFF and inspect results. 13. If you are satisfied, continue to remove material from workpiece, using “downhill” cutting method illustrated in Figure 30 until workpiece is complete. 14. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER! 15.
Removing Tailstock 1. Loosen tailstock clamp bolts shown in Figure 31 on Page 27, remove clamping plate, clamp bolts, and flat washers from tailstock, then move tailstock out of the way. 2. Remove (2) flat head screws that secure clamping plate halves together (see Figure 32), then remove plate halves and tailstock from bed. Adjusting Tool Rest The tool rest assembly consists of two components: the tool rest base (or banjo) and the tool rest.
Removing/Installing Tool Rest To adjust tool rest: 1. Loosen tool rest base locking bolt shown in Figure 33 and move tool rest assembly to desired position on lathe bed. 2. Tighten tool rest base locking bolt (see Figure 33) to secure tool rest assembly in position. Ensure tool rest base is tightly secured and makes full contact with both bedways to help prevent tool rest assembly from coming loose during operation. Serious personal injury may occur if tool rest base comes loose during operation.
4. Make sure center is securely installed by attempting to pull it out by hand—a properly installed center will not pull out easily. Installing/Removing Tailstock Center Removing Headstock Center 1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER! 2. Hold a clean rag under spindle or wear leather glove to catch center when you remove it. 3. Insert knockout tool through outbound end of spindle and firmly tap back of center, catching it as it falls, as shown in Figure 35.
Removing Tailstock Center 1. Loosen quill locking nut and rotate it up to just touch back of live center (see Figure 37). 2. Hold a clean rag under spindle or wear a glove to catch center when you remove it (see Figure 37). 3. Rotate quill handwheel counterclockwise to force center out of quill.
Installing/Removing Faceplate Items Needed Qty Open-End Wrenches 32mm (Included).............. 2 Lightly Oiled Rag................................................ 1 To install faceplate: 1. DISCONNECT Machine from power! 2. If spur center is installed, remove it (refer to Page 29 for detailed instructions). 3. 4. Make sure internal threads of faceplate and threads of spindle are free of debris, then wipe threads with a lightly oiled rag to aid in installation and removal.
Adjusting Spindle Speed Spindle speed must be adjusted while lathe is running. Adjusting spindle speed while machine is not in operation could result in permanent damage to the machine, which is not covered under warranty. Always use correct spindle speed for your operation. Using wrong speed may lead to workpiece breaking loose or being thrown from lathe at a high rate of speed, causing fatal or severe impact injuries.
Spindle Turning To set up a spindle turning operation: 1. Spindle turning is the operation performed when a workpiece is mounted between centers in the headstock and tailstock, as shown in Figure 43. Bowls, table legs, tool handles, and candlesticks are typical projects where this operation is used. Find center point of both ends of your workpiece by drawing diagonal lines from corner to corner across end of workpiece, as shown in Figure 44.
6. Drive spur center into end center mark of workpiece with wood mallet to embed center at least 1⁄4" into workpiece, as shown in Figure 46. 12. Rotate workpiece by hand to ensure there is safe clearance on all sides. If necessary, readjust tool rest until there is proper clearance on all sides of workpiece. Keep lathe tool resting on tool rest the ENTIRE time it is in contact with workpiece or when preparing to make contact between lathe tool and workpiece.
Faceplate Turning 2. Center faceplate on workpiece and attach it (see Figure 48) with wood screws. Faceplate turning is when a workpiece is mounted to the faceplate, which is then mounted to the headstock spindle, as shown in Figure 47. This type of turning is usually done with open-faced workpieces like bowls or plates. Figure 48. Typical attachment of faceplate to workpiece. NOTICE Figure 47. Typical faceplate turning operation.

Selecting Turning Tools • Lathe tools come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and usually fall into five major categories. • Scrapers—Typically used where access for other tools is limited, such as hollowing operations. This is a flat, double-ground tool that comes in a variety of profiles (round nose, spear point, square nose, etc.) to match many different contours. Gouges—Mainly used for rough cutting, detail cutting, and cove profiles.
SECTION 5: ACCESSORIES installing unapproved accessories may cause machine to malfunction, resulting in serious personal injury or machine damage. To reduce this risk, only install accessories recommended for this machine by Grizzly. NOTICE Refer to our website or latest catalog for additional recommended accessories. Sovereign Turning System Sovereign is a new handle and tool system allowing the turner to customize the tools they need for the type of turning they do.
SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE To reduce risk of shock or accidental startup, always disconnect machine from power before adjustments, maintenance, or service. Schedule For optimum performance from this machine, this maintenance schedule must be strictly followed. Ongoing To maintain a low risk of injury and proper machine operation, if you ever observe any of the items below, shut down the machine immediately and fix the problem before continuing operations: • Loose faceplate or mounting bolts.
