20. NEVER PERFORM LAYOUT OR ASSEMBLY to work pieces in front of the NOVA
VERSATURN™ GRINDER ACCESSORY ATTACHMENT WHEEL while it is still
running. A sudden slip could bring hands in contact with the moving parts of the NOVA
VERSTURN™ GRINDER ACCESSORY ATTACHMENT WHEEL possibly resulting in
serious injuries.
21. ADJUST THE TOOL REST BEFORE EACH USE. The tool rest should be close to the
grinding wheel (about 1/8" separation or less) between the front of the grinding wheel and
the tool rest. The tool rest should always be tightened to prevent shifting. It should be
readjusted, as needed, as the grinding wheel or wire brush wears down. If not properly
adjusted, the work piece can be inadvertently drawn into the grinding wheel causing
damage to the grinding wheel, lathe or possibly causing serious injuries.
22. AVOID EXCESS SAWDUST OR METAL FILINGS.
23. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Do not turn the NOVA™ Comet II Midi Lathe “ON” before
clearing it and the surrounding area of all objects (tools, scraps of wood, etc.). Keep the
nearby area and floor clear of debris.
24. CHECK SET-UP WITH THE SPINDLE “OFF.” Inspect the set-up carefully and rotate
the work piece, by hand, to check clearance(s). In addition, check to see speed is
correctly selected before turning “ON” spindle.
25. ALWAYS VERIFY THE CORRECT SPEED IS SELECTED BEFORE SWITCHING “ON”
THE SPINDLE.
26. TURN AT THE RECOMMENDED SPEED(S.) Always operate the NOVA Comet II
Midi Lathe at the recommended speed(s.) Consult your wood lathe & grinding
wheel manual for suggested speeds. MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED SPEED IS 3000RPM
for the VERSATURN GRINDING WHEEL. DO NOT OPERATE THE VERSATURN
GRINDING WHEEL IN REVERSE! Damage would occur to equipment and may
result in serious personal injury.
27. DO NOT OPERATE THE LATHE IF DAMAGED OR FAULTY. If any part of your wood
lathe is missing, damaged or broken, in any way; or if any electrical component fails, shut
“OFF” the wood lathe and disconnect the wood lathe from the power supply. Replace
missing, damaged, or failed parts before resuming the operation(s.)
