Speed selection
The lathe is provided with four
pulley selections and variable speed.
This allows you to select the correct
speed for your job and also the
correct torque. If you are turning a
large bowl blank [48” in diameter]
you will not only need to have a low
speed but high torque as well. In this
case the lowest set of pulleys will be
required. The speed range is
0 to 3900 rpm / 0 to 2800 rpm / 0 to
1200 rpm / 0 to 450 rpm
The variable speed control is located
on the moveable control box.
To change the pulley speed.
1/ Loosen the locking handle and lift
the motor.
2/ Move the drive belt to the required
set of pulleys.
3/ lower the motor and tighten the
locking handle. Once the pulley
speed has been selected you can
adjust the speed by adjusting the speed control knob on the moveable control box to
the required speed.
