hed power point installed in the nearness of the machine

and see that the lead can be guided to the contact without

cracks and pulls. If need be an earthed extension cable

can be used, but see that the cable is unrolled entirely and

that it is not in the way.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Always check that the power supply corresponds to the

voltage on the rating plate.

REPLACING CABLES OR PLUGS

Immediately throw away old cables or plugs when they ha-

ve been replaced by new ones. It is dangerous to insert the

plug of a loose cable in the wall outlet.

BEFORE OPERATION

For transport the machine has been greased with a layer

which prevents rust. This layer has no greasing function

and has to be removed with clothes. You can do this with a

solvant which is not aggressive, for example turpentine or

petroleum. When you are acquainted with metal-working

machines you can dismantle, control and oil several spare

parts with a light and universel machine-oil, for example

sewing-machine oil (sour free). Afterwards you finish the

complete maintenance table of chapter 14 ‘maintenance’.

ADJUSTMENT

The lathe has been adjusted to a minimum margin by the

factory. Because of transport some adjustments can be

changed. On the other hand the machine has been de-

signed in such a way that any appearing margin can be lif-

ted. This margin is also caused by wear end tear as a con-

sequence of an intensif use. If re-adjustment does not ha-

ve an effect anymore, the part is worned and has to be mo-

ved.
