Changing Spindle Speeds
The variable speeds of the lathe are controlled by the speed knob on the control box as well as the
position of the belt on the pulleys.
1. Disconnect machine from the power source (unplug).
2. Pull open the control box at the left side of the base (A, Figure 10), and the access door at the back
side of the headstock (A, Figure 11) to expose the pulleys.
3. Loosen the motor plate lock handle (A, Figure 12). Lift up on the motor plate handle (B, Figure 12) to
take tension off the belt.
4. Move the belt (B, Figure 10) to the desired pulley groove according to the speed chart found on the
inside of the headstock access door. Be sure the belt is aligned with spindle pulley and motor pulley.
5. Tension the belt by pushing down on the motor plate handle (B, Figure 12) and lock in place.
