HOW TO USE:

1. Preparation: Secure your workpiece in the chuck or between centers. Mount any necessary cutting tools in the tool post. Ensure the safety shield is in place and the coolant system is filled (if using).
2. Power On and Speed Selection: Turn on the lathe and select the desired spindle speed using the variable speed control or the two-speed gearbox for low or high-speed ranges. Refer to cutting speed charts for recommended speeds based on material and tool type.
3. Engaging the Feed: Engage the longitudinal or cross feed levers to move the cutting tool along the desired axis. The DRO readout will display the position change.
4. Machining: With the tool engaged and feed active, begin machining your workpiece. Maintain proper tool pressure and coolant flow for optimal results.
5. Machine Stop: Once machining is complete, disengage the feed, stop the spindle rotation, and power off the lathe.
