  • Make sure all clamping handles are tight.

Operational Safety Checks

  • Adjust speed to suit the diameter of the work and turning operation (IMPORTANT - *never* adjust speed while the lathe is off!)
  • Before making adjustments (apart from speed), switch off and bring the machine to a complete standstill.
  • Keep the tool rest adjusted close to the work and at the correct height.
  • Stop the lathe and remove all tool rests before sanding.

Ending Operations and Cleaning Up

  • Hair/clothing getting caught in moving machine parts.
  • Airborne dust.

Do

  • Rough cut the workpiece as close as possible to the finished shape before installing it.
  • Check your workpiece for flaws, cracks, knots etc. and test glue joints before mounting the workpiece on machine.
  • Use the lowest speed when starting a new workpiece.

Don't

  • Drive the workpiece into the drive center while the drive center is in the headstock.
    • Set the drive center into the workpiece with a soft mallet prior to installing it on the headstock.
  • Touch your project by hand while the lathe is running

How To Get Certified

We try to say "authorized" now at PS:1 instead of "certified" for a few reasons we don't need to go into here ... there is a list of authorized proctors (trainers) at the top of this page. You can't become authorized from just any other member who knows how to use this, it's a dangerous piece of equipment and we're keeping the authorization process a little more formal because of that. Ask the area host for the wood shop, any volunteer authorizers for wood shop, or the people listed as authorized proctors about authorization.
