NOTICE
Even though there is a lock-out device in
the apron to prevent the feed control knob
and the halfnut lever from being engaged at
the same time, this device could break with
enough force. Attempting to engage feed
control knob and the halfnut lever at the
same time could cause severe lathe dam-
age and will void the warranty.
If you attempt to use the controls on the
headstock above the control panel to make
changes when the spindle is rotating, the
headstock gearing will suffer damage!
ALWAYS make sure the spindle is com-
pletely stopped BEFORE using the head-
stock controls to make changes.

Important:
Before engaging power feed, make
sure the carriage and slide locks are loose to pre-
vent damage to these components.
Note:
Before using power feed, you may have to
re-configure the change gears, depending on how
they are set up. Refer to
