Congratulations on your purchase of a ONEWAY 1224 Lathe.
This manual describes general use and features of the ONEWAY 1224
Lathe. It is not meant to be a woodturning instruction book. If you are
new to turning, we recommend seeking out a qualified instructor in your
area. There are many national and local woodturning organizations that
can recommend instructors. If you are unable to take lessons, there are
many excellent books and videos available. Proper instruction will ensure
that you work safely and that you can use your new lathe at it’s optimum.

Bedways and ribs are welded to a 4-1/2 inch diameter * 1/4 inch wall
tube. The assembly is stress relieved and precision machined.
Bedways are offset so chips and debris fall straight thru without sacri-
ficing rigidity.
Almost perfect torsional rigidity is achieved - many times more than
twin tube or cast iron bed designs.
•
Features a four bearing spindle: At the front are two deep groove
ball bearings custom fitted with ground spacers, and locked to the
shaft with a lock nut in the housing. This minimizes radial and
axial play of the spindle. The rear bearings float axially to allow for
heat expansion. Bearings are no maintenance greased for life.
•
The spindle is 1-5/8" at maximum diameter and drilled thru 3/8"
with number 2 morse taper at the inboard end. It is made from
high strength alloy steel, hardened and ground to precision toler-
ance of ±0.0003 inches.
•
A special self supporting wrench is used to remove accessories from
the spindle such as faceplates and chucks.
•
24 position indexing is standard.
The Bed
The Headstock
The spindle is 1" - 8 TPI with a groove machined for a lock screw. This
design contributes to the safety of this machine, as it reduces the possi-
bility of chucks or faceplates accidentally unscrewing from the spindle,
especially when the machine is used in reverse. It is also safer when sand-
ing and braking.
