Why is my Jet JWL-1642EVS vibrating so much?
- P
  pbellJul 30, 2025
  Excessive vibration in your Jet Lathe can stem from several issues. First, check the workpiece for any warping, out-of-roundness, major flaws, or improper preparation. Correct this by planing, bandsawing, or using a different workpiece. Vibration can also be caused by worn spindle bearings or a worn belt, in which case you should replace them. Ensure the motor mount bolt or handle isn't loose and tighten if necessary. Lastly, make sure the lathe is on an even surface; shim the lathe bed or adjust the feet if needed.

  If your Jet Lathe motor or spindle stalls, or won't start, the issue might be due to an excessive cut, so reduce the cut depth. Other potential causes include a worn motor or worn spindle bearings, which would require replacement. A broken belt should also be replaced. Additionally, ensure the motor has proper cooling by cleaning any sawdust from the motor fan.

Why does my Jet JWL-1642EVS Lathe motor fail to develop full power?
- H
  houstonkarenAug 11, 2025
  If your Jet Lathe motor isn't developing full power, it could be due to a few reasons. The power line might be overloaded, so correct the overload condition. Undersized wires in the supply system could also be the problem, so increase the supply wire size. Low voltage can also cause this issue; request a voltage check from your power company and correct any low voltage conditions. Lastly, a worn motor could be the culprit, requiring replacement.

How to stop tools from grabbing or digging in on my Jet JWL-1642EVS?
- M
  Michael TaylorAug 16, 2025
  If tools tend to grab or dig in when using your Jet Lathe, start by checking if the tools are dull and sharpen them if needed. Ensure the tool support isn't set too low; reposition it to the correct height. Also, verify that the tool support isn't set too far from the workpiece; move it closer. Finally, make sure you are using the correct tool for the operation.
