All safety equipment should be ANSI approved. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. BEFORE STARTING THE MACHINE be certain the workpiece has been properly imbedded on the headstock and tailstock centers and that there is adequate clearance for the full rotation. ADJUST TOOL REST to provide proper support for the turning tool you will be using. Test tool rest clearance by rotating workpiece by hand before turning lathe on. SELECT THE TURNING SPEED which is appropriate for the type of work. Allow the lathe to gain its full speed before using the lathe. ALWAYS INSPECT THE CONDITION of the materials you are turning. Pay particular attention to knots, splits and other potentially dangerous conditions. KEEP LATHE TOOLS PROPERLY SHARPENED and hold firmly in the proper position when turning. 8. NEVER OPERATE THE LATHE WITH DAMAGED OR WORN PARTS. Maintain your lathe in proper working condition. Perform routine inspections and maintenance promptly when called for. Put away adjustment tools after use. 9. MAKE SURE YOUR WOOD LATHE IS TURNED OFF, disconnected from its power source and all moving parts have come to a complete stop before starting any inspection, adjustment, or maintenance procedure. 10. DO NOT LEAVE LATHE RUNNING UNATTENDED for any reason. 11. DO NOT STOP LATHE USING YOUR HAND against the workpiece. 12. KEEP LOOSE CLOTHING ARTICLES such as sleeves, belts or jewelry items away from the lathe spindle. 13. WHEN FACE PLATE TURNING, use lathe chisels on the downward spinning side of the workpiece only. 14. REMOVE THE TOOL REST when performing sanding or polishing operations on the rotating spindle. 15. ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE too much material at once may cause work material to fly out of the lathe. No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment or poor work results. -4- G8690 Variable Speed Wood Lathe SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS 110V Operation The Model G8690 is wired for 110/120V, singlephase operation only. The 1⁄3 HP motor will safely draw 3.1 amps at 110V. If you operate this machine on any circuit that is already close to its capacity, it might blow a fuse or trip a circuit breaker. However, if an unusual load does not exist and a power failure still occurs, contact a qualified electrician or our service department. The lathe comes equipped with its own fuse rated at 3.15 amps. Never replace the fuse with one rated higher than 3.5 amps. This equipment must be grounded. Verify that any existing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into is actually grounded. Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any three-pronged plug be removed. Serious injury may occur. Extension Cords If you find it necessary to use an extension cord with the Model G8690, make sure the cord is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Refer to the chart in the standard safety instructions to determine the minimum gauge for the extension cord. The extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords when they become worn or damaged. Figure 1A Do not remove grounding pin. Grounding In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance to disperse electric current. This tool is equipped with a power cord having an equipment-grounding conductor. See Figure 1. The outlet must be properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Remove this protective coating with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. Avoid chlorine-based solvents as they may damage painted surfaces should they come in contact. Always follow the usage instructions on the product you choose for clean up. Do not use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents to clean with. They have low flash points which make them extremely flammable. A risk of explosion and burning exists if these products are used. Serious personal injury may occur. Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be toxic when inhaled or ingested. Always work in well-ventilated areas far from potential ignition sources when dealing with solvents. Use care when disposing of waste rags and towels to be sure they do not create fire or environmental hazards. Keep children and animals safely away when cleaning and assembling this machine. Do not smoke while using solvents. A risk of explosion or fire exists and may result in serious personal injury. -8- Site Considerations BENCH LOAD Your Model G8690 represents a moderately large weight load in a small footprint. Ensure that your workbench is sturdy enough to carry the weight of the Model G8690. If you question the strength of your workbench, you can opt to reinforce it. WORKING CLEARANCES Working clearances can be thought of as the distances between machines and obstacles that allow safe operation of every machine without limitation. Consider existing and anticipated machine needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands and/or work tables. Also consider the relative position of each machine to one another for efficient material handling. Be sure to allow yourself sufficient room to safely run your machines in any foreseeable operation. LIGHTING AND OUTLETS Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle combined motor amp loads. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or extension cords are not obstructing high-traffic areas. Be sure to observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits. Make your shop “child safe.” Ensure that your workplace is inaccessible to youngsters by closing and locking all entrances when you are away. Never allow visitors in your shop when assembling, adjusting or operating equipment. G8690 Variable Speed Wood Lathe SECTION 4: ASSEMBLY Beginning Assembly Disconnect power to the machine when performing any maintenance, assembly or adjustments. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. Guide Rails Install the two guide rails between the two foot assemblies and secure in place using the four setscrews (M6-1 x 10) as shown in Figure 2.. Keep loose clothing rolled up and out of the way of machinery and keep hair pulled back. Wear safety glasses during the entire assembly process. Failure to comply may result in serious personal injury. Figure 2. Guide rails installed. Most of your Model G8690 has been assembled at the factory, but some parts must be assembled or installed after delivery. We have organized the assembly process into steps. Please follow along in the order presented here. TOOLS REQUIRED: A metric socket set, 6" adjustable wrench, and Phillips® head screw driver. G8690 Variable Speed Wood Lathe -9- Tool Rest Tailstock Install the tool rack brackets and the tool rack base onto the guide rails using the hex bolt (M121.75 x 65), washer and handle. See Figure 3. The tailstock rests on the guide rails and is held in place by the tailstock bracket using a double end screw (M12-1.75 x 65), washer and handle. The tailstock can be adjusted along the length of the guide rails to accommodate various lengths of wood stock. There are two ways to adjust the tailstock. The handle located under the lathe bed can be loosened, allowing the tailstock to slide up and down the length of the guide rails; or the hand wheel can be loosened, allowing the threaded spindle to move back and forth in the tailstock for fine adjustment. See Figure 5. Figure 3. Tool rack mounted to guide rails. The tool rest fits into the tool rack shaft and is tightened in place with a setscrew (M6-1 x 8). The tool rack shaft drops into the tool rack base and is secured with the tightening knob as shown in Figure 4. Figure 5. Tailstock mounted to guide rails. Live Center The live center is installed by inserting the end of the shaft into the tailstock assembly. While holding in place, turn the handwheel on the tailstock clockwise until snug. Figure 4. Tool rest mounted in bracket. -10- G8690 Variable Speed Wood Lathe Spur Center Faceplate The Model G8690 is supplied with a #1 Morse Taper spur center for use when spindle turning. The spur center is used in conjunction with the tailstock live center. Install the spur center by inserting it into the hole in the headstock spindle end. To remove the spur center from the headstock, insert a pin into the spindle hole and turn the hex nut counterclockwise with a wrench until the spur center is ejected. See Figure 5A. The faceplate is used for turning plates and bowls. To install the faceplate, remove the spur center. Insert a pin in the spindle shaft to hold the spindle, and thread the faceplate onto the spindle threads as seen in Figure 6. Tighten securely with your fingers, and use the mounting holes on the faceplate to attach wood stock with wood screws. We recommend cleaning the spur center taper with mineral spirits. Refer to the safety warnings on the container of the mineral spirits. Failure to clean the mating surfaces may result in separation, and an unsafe condition. Separation is usually a result of oil or grease on the taper. Motor Housing Spur Center Figure 6. Installing the faceplate. M.T #1 Hex Nut Figure 5A. Hex nut installed before inserting spur center. G8690 Variable Speed Wood Lathe -11- SECTION 5: OPERATIONS Spindle Turning Test Run To mount a workpiece between centers: Keep loose clothing rolled up and out of the way of machinery and keep hair pulled back. 1. Locate the center point on both ends of the workpiece by carefully drawing diagonal lines from corner to corner. The point of intersection is the center of the work. Find the center of round wood stock by using a center finder instrument. 2. When turning stock with a diameter greater than 2", remove the corner length edges with a hand plane or similar operation as shown in Figure 6A. Wear a face shield during the test run and operation of this wood working lathe. Failure to do so could result in serious injury. Wood Stock Once assembly is complete and adjustments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test run the machine. D" Press the START button. Make sure that your finger is poised on the STOP button, just in case there is a problem. The lathe should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further. If measurement D" is greater than 2", cut off the corners of the wood stock. Figure 6A. Cross-section of turning stock. If you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, contact our service department for help. Make sure the live center in the tailstock lines up with the spur center in the headstock before turning anything between the centers. Failure to observe this step could result in the workpiece being thrown from the lathe. Serious personal injury could occur if care is not taken. -12- 3. Hold the spindle vertically and support it on a solid surface. Line up the spur center with the center of the workpiece. Drive the spur center into the stock about 1⁄4" using a dead blow hammer. Be careful not to split the workpiece. See Figure 6B. Wood with splits along the grain may fly off during the operation. With dense wood, drill a hole at the centers and score lines with a saw blade for the spur. G8690 Variable Speed Wood Lathe Speed Selector 1/4" Figure 6B. Spur center set into wood stock. 4. 5. Once the spur center is firmly attached to the workpiece, insert the spur center (with the attached workpiece) into the headstock spindle. Be certain the hex nut is threaded onto the spindle before tapping the spur center in. While supporting the workpiece, slide the tailstock close to the end of the workpiece and lock it into place. 6. Line up the live center with the workpiece center. Turn the handwheel to press the point of the live center into the workpiece. 7. Lock the tailstock in place. Do not press too firmly or the bearings will bind and overheat. Likewise, do not adjust too loosely or the workpiece will spin off the lathe. Use good judgement. Serious personal injury could result if care is not taken. The variable speed selector allows the adjustment of the spindle R.P.M. Before turning the lathe on, make sure the speed selector knob is set at the lowest R.P.M. (turn counterclockwise). See Figure 7. Once the lathe is turned on, slowly increase the R.P.M. of the lathe by turning the speed selector knob clockwise. Make sure that your finger is poised on the STOP button, just in case there’s a problem. The lathe should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further. If you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, contact our service department for help. Remember to choose the correct speed for your particular turning project. As a general rule, the larger the workpiece diameter, the slower the speed. Always start at the slowest speed. Speed Selector Knob Figure 7. Operating controls. G8690 Variable Speed Wood Lathe -13- Tool Rest Adjust the tool rest as close to the workpiece as possible without actually coming into contact with the workpiece. Test by hand-turning the workpiece before turning the lathe on. Ensure that the lathe chisel is fully supported by the tool rest. Support the lathe chisel on the tool rest with one hand, while the other hand controls the chisel. See Figure 8. Figure 8. Correct hand placement for operation. Wear a face shield during the test run and operation of this wood working lathe. Failure to do so could result in serious injury. -14- G8690 Variable Speed Wood Lathe SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE General Disconnect power to the machine when performing any maintenance, assembly or adjustments. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. Some woodworkers recommend using automotive paste wax on exposed steel and cast iron surfaces. The wax provides a layer of protection. Avoid waxes that contain silicone or other synthetic ingredients. These materials can find their way into lumber that’s being worked, and can make staining and finishing difficult. If you use paste wax, make sure that it’s 100% Carnauba wax. Lubrication Keep loose clothing rolled up and out of the way of machinery and keep hair pulled back. Since all bearings are shielded and permanently lubricated, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them. Wear safety glasses during the entire maintenance process. Failure to comply may result in serious personal injury. Regular periodic maintenance on your Model G8690 will ensure its optimum performance. Make a habit of inspecting your lathe each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary: 1. Loose mounting bolts. 2. Worn switch. 3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs. 4. Damaged cog tooth belt. The non-painted surfaces on the Model G8690 should be protected against rust and pitting. Wiping the lathe clean after every use ensures that wood dust isn’t allowed to trap moisture against bare metal surfaces.
