This manual provides critical safety instructions on the proper setup,
operation, maintenance and service of this machine/equipment.
Failure to read, understand and follow the instructions given in this
manual may result in serious personal injury, including amputation,
electrocution or death.
The owner of this machine/equipment is solely responsible for its safe
use. This responsibility includes but is not limited to proper installa-
tion in a safe environment, personnel training and usage authoriza-
tion, proper inspection and maintenance, manual availability and
comprehension, application of safety devices, blade/cutter integrity,
and the usage of personal protective equipment.
The manufacturer will not be held liable for injury or property
damage from negligence, improper training, machine modifications or
misuse.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
Lead from lead-based paints.
Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.
Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you
do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
Work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equip-
ment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.

The Model W1758 is wired for 110V operation. We recom-
mend connecting this machine to a dedicated circuit with
a verified ground, using the circuit size below as a mini-
mum. Never replace a circuit breaker with one of higher
amperage without consulting a qualified electrician to
ensure compliance with wiring codes.
This machine must be grounded! The electrical cord sup-
plied with this machine comes with a grounding pin. If
your outlet does not accommodate a ground pin, have it
replaced by a qualified electrician.

Although not required, we recommend that you mount
your new machine to the floor. Because this is an optional
step and floor materials may vary, floor mounting hard-
ware is not included. Generally, you can either bolt
your machine to the floor or mount it on machine feet.
Both options are described below. Whichever option you
choose it will be necessary to use a precision level to
level your machine.

Lag shield anchors with lag bolts and anchor studs (

Once the assembly is complete, test run your machine to
make sure it runs properly and is ready for regular opera-
tion.
The test run consists of verifying the following: 1) The
motor powers up and runs correctly, and 2) the switch
disabling mechanism works correctly.
If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source
of an unusual noise or vibration, stop using the machine
immediately, then review  on 

Faceplate turning is when a workpiece is mounted to the
faceplate that, in turn, is secured to the headstock spin-
dle. This type of turning is usually done with open-faced

Outboard turning is a variation of faceplate turning and
is usually done when stock diameter is greater than 12".
For the size of the Model W1758 and its minimum turn-
ing speed, we recommend not exceeding a maximum
workpiece diameter of 17".
 depicts the lathe setup at 90° and using the
provided tool rest extension.  shows the head-
stock setup for outboard turning at 180°.
It is important for safety and performance to use the pro-
vided tool rest extension in a manner that will offer the
greatest stability and range for your turning tool. If this
tool rest assembly will not work for your operation, you
must use a free-standing tool rest (not supplied).

The lathe can be used for finishing procedures after the
turning operations are complete, such as sanding, polish-

Since all bearings for the Model W1758 are
sealed and permanently lubricated, simply
leave them alone until they need to be
replaced. Do not lubricate them.
Wipe a lightly oiled shop rag on the outside
of the headstock spindle. DO NOT allow any
oil to get on the inside mating surface of
the spindle.
Use the quill handwheel to extend the
tailstock quill all the way out, and apply
a thin coat of white lithium grease to the
outside of the quill. DO NOT allow any
lubricant to get on the inside mating sur-
face of the quill.
Cleaning the Model W1758 is relatively easy. Vacuum
excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off the remain-
ing dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has built up, use a
resin dissolving cleaner to remove it.
Remove any debris or oily substances from the inside of
the spindle and quill.

To disassemble the tailstock for cleaning, loosen the set
screw above the handwheel, then completely unthread
the handwheel from the threads of the quill. Except for
the live center, thoroughly clean all of the unpainted
parts with mineral spirits and apply a thin coat of light
machine oil to these surfaces.
When re-assembling the tailstock, thread the handwheel
back onto the quill, tighten down the set screw that
secures it, then back the screw off one full turn so that
the handwheel can freely rotate.

ship and materials for a period of two years from the date of original purchase by the original owner.
This warranty does not apply to defects due directly or indirectly to misuse, abuse, negligence or acci-
dents, lack of maintenance, or reimbursement of third party expenses incurred.
Woodstock International, Inc. will repair or replace, at its expense and at its option, the Shop Fox

owner returns the product prepaid to a Shop Fox factory service center with proof of their purchase
of the product within two years, and provides Woodstock International, Inc. reasonable opportunity to
verify the alleged defect through inspection. If it is determined there is no defect, or that the defect
resulted from causes not within the scope of Woodstock International Inc.'s warranty, then the original
owner must bear the cost of storing and returning the product.
This is Woodstock International, Inc.'s sole written warranty and any and all warranties that may be
implied by law, including any merchantability or fitness, for any particular purpose, are hereby lim-
ited to the duration of this written warranty. We do not warrant that Shop Fox machinery complies
with the provisions of any law or acts. In no event shall Woodstock International, Inc.'s liability under
this warranty exceed the purchase price paid for the product, and any legal actions brought against
Woodstock International, Inc. shall be tried in the State of Washington, County of Whatcom. We shall
in no event be liable for death, injuries to persons or property or for incidental, contingent, special or
consequential damages arising from the use of our products.
