1.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING – To reduce risk of injury:

1. Read and understand the entire owner’s

manual before attempting assembly or

operation.

2. Read and understand the warnings posted on

the machine and in this manual. Failure to

comply with all of these warnings may cause

serious injury.

3. Replace warning labels if they become

obscured or removed.

4. This wood lathe is designed and intended for

use by properly trained and experienced

personnel only. If you are not familiar with the

proper and safe operation of a wood lathe, do

not use it until the proper training and

knowledge have been obtained.

5. Do not use this lathe for other than its intended

use. If used for other purposes, JET disclaims

any real or implied warranty and holds itself

harmless from any injury that may result from

that use.

6. Always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved safety

glasses or face shield while using this lathe.

(Everyday eyeglasses only have impact

resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.)

7. Make certain the machine is properly

grounded.

8. Before operating the machine, remove tie,

rings, watches, other jewelry, and roll sleeves

up past the elbows. Remove all loose clothing

and confine long hair. Do not wear gloves.

9. Keep the floor around the machine clean and

free of scrap material, oil and grease.

10. Keep machine guards in place at all times

when the machine is in use. If removed for

maintenance purposes, use extreme caution

and replace the guards immediately.

11. Do not over reach. Maintain a balanced

stance at all times, so that you do not fall or

lean against rotating parts.

12. Make all machine adjustments or maintenance

with the machine unplugged from the power

source.

13. Use the right tool. Do not force a tool or

attachment to do a job that it was not designed

to do.

14. Make certain the switch is in the OFF position

before connecting the machine to the power

supply.

15. Give your work undivided attention. Looking

around, carrying on a conversation and "horse-

play" are careless acts that can result in

serious injury.

16. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work

area. Keep children away.

17. Make your workshop child proof with padlocks,

master switches or by removing starter keys.

18. Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that

you do not fall onto moving parts. Do not

overreach or use excessive force to perform

any machine operation.

19. Use recommended accessories; improper

accessories may be hazardous.

20. WARNING: Drilling, sawing, sanding or

machining wood products generates wood

dust and other substances known to the State

of California to cause cancer. Avoid inhaling

dust generated from wood products or use a

dust mask or other safeguards to avoid

inhaling dust generated from wood products.

21. Wood products emit chemicals known to the

State of California to cause birth defects or

other reproductive harm. (California Health

and Safety Code Section 25249.6)

22. Do not operate this lathe while under the

influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.

23. Keep tools sharp and clean for safe and best

performance. Dull tools can grab in the

workpiece and be jerked from the operator's

hands, causing serious injury.

24. Check the condition of the stock to be turned.

Make sure it is free of knots, warpage,

checked ends, improperly made or cured glue

joints and other conditions which can cause it

to be thrown out of the lathe.

25. Securely fasten spur and live centers to the

material being used.

26. Check centers and tapers in the headstock

and tailstock to be sure they are free of dirt or

rust, and oil lightly before inserting centers.

27. Test each set-up by revolving the workpiece

by hand to ensure it clears the tool rest and

bed. Check the setup at the lowest speed

before increasing to operating speed.

28. Use the correct cutting tool for the operation to

be performed and keep all tools sharp.

29. Use low speeds for roughing and for long or

large diameter work. If vibration occurs, stop

the machine and correct the cause.

30. When sanding, remove the tool rest from the

machine, apply light pressure and use a slow

speed to avoid heat buildup.

31. When turning large diameter pieces, such as

bowls, always operate the lathe at low speeds.

See speed recommendation chart in sect.

12.0.

32. Do not attempt to engage the spindle lock pin

until the spindle has stopped. If leaving the

machine area, turn lathe off and wait until the

spindle stops rotating before departing.

33. Make no adjustments except speed changes

with the spindle rotating, and always

disconnect the machine from the power source

when performing maintenance to avoid

accidental starting or electrical shock.

34. Provide for adequate space surrounding work

area and non-glare, overhead lighting.

35. When stopping the lathe, never grab the

workpiece or faceplate to slow it down. Let the

work coast to a stop.

36. Use only JET factory authorized replacement

parts and accessories; otherwise, the warranty

and guarantee are null and void.

37. Use proper extension cord. Make sure your

extension cord is in good condition. When

using an extension cord, be sure to use one

heavy enough to carry the current your product

will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop

in line voltage resulting in loss of power and

overheating. Table 1 (sect. 6.2) shows correct

size to use depending on cord length and

nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the

next heavier gage. The smaller the gage

number, the heavier the cord.

Familiarize yourself with the following safety notices used in this manual:

This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in minor injury and/or possible

machine damage.

This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in serious, or possibly even fatal,

injury.

not discard carton or packing material until

lathe is assembled and running satisfactorily.

2. Inspect contents for shipping damage; if any is

found, report it to your distributor.

3. Compare contents of shipping carton with the

contents list in this manual. Report shortages,

if any, to your distributor. Note: Check lathe

first – some parts may have been pre-installed.

4. Exposed metal areas of the Lathe, such as

bedways and spindles, have been factory

coated with a protectant. This should be

removed with a soft cloth and a cleaner-

degreaser. Clean the bed areas under

headstock, tailstock and tool support base. Do

not use an abrasive pad, and do not allow

solvents to contact painted or plastic areas.

Figure 5-1: shipping contents (not to scale)

5.4 Installing leg set and riser blocks

See Figures 5-2 and 5-3.

1. If you desire to install the riser blocks for a 4”

height increase, mount them to bottom of legs

using fasteners (HP006/5/7) Tighten firmly.

2. Install adjustable feet into bottom of legs or

riser blocks (Figure 5-2) and tighten hex nut

against leg casting. The feet can be adjusted

later.

Figure 5-2: riser blocks and feet

Lathe is heavy – use caution

during leg installment procedures. Use straps

in good condition. Straps/lifting mechanisms

must be properly rated for lathe weight.

5.4.1 Hoist lifting method

1. Position straps around lathe bed.

IMPORTANT: Do not place straps around

spindle, near levers, knobs or other parts that

can be damaged when lifting.

2. Position lathe onto legs and secure with

screws and washers (HP001/2/3, Figure 5-3)

using 6mm hex key.

3. Tighten screws firmly.

Figure 5-3: installing legs

5.4.2 Manual lifting method

Use help from an assistant for

the following procedures.

1. Unscrew stud (see O, Figure 5-6) from each

end of bed. (Note: studs can be stored in one

of the threaded holes in lathe legs.)

2. Remove headstock, tailstock and tool rest

support from bed. (Refer to sect. 7.0 for

detailed instructions on adjusting and

removing these items.)

3. Carefully turn bed upside down. Place a mat or

cardboard beneath it to prevent scratching the

bed ways.

4. Install legs with screws and washers

(HP001/2/3, Figure 5-3) using 6mm hex key.

Tighten screws firmly.

5. Raise bed and leg assembly right-side up.

6. Rotate adjustable feet (Figure 5-2) as needed

to establish level for the lathe. Tighten hex nut

on each foot against leg casting.

7. Install headstock, tool support and tailstock,

and both studs (O, Figure 5-6).

5.5 Tool shelf

The tool shelf (N) can be mounted to either end of

lathe with screws and washers (HP004/5).

5.6 Guard (optional accessory)

4mm hex key required.

The guard (part no. 719002) is optional and

purchased separately. See our website for

information.

1. Loosen set screw on outer collar (shown in

Figure 5-4) with 4mm hex key. Slide outer

collar off the guard support rod.

2. Insert guard support rod into mounting bracket

at rear of headstock. You will have to lift up on

spring pin, as shown, to slide guard support

rod into mounting bracket. Release spring pin

and it will snap into position as you slide

support rod farther in.

3. Install outer collar and tighten set screw.

4. The guard can be pivoted to one of two

positions: Operating mode, or tilted back for

stock loading (Figure 5-5).

5. Pull up on spring pin, and begin tilting guard,

then release spring pin. When guard reaches

either of the two positions, spring pin will

engage.

Figure 5-4: installing guard (optional)

Figure 5-5: guard (optional) tilted back

5.7 Bed extension (optional

accessory)

8mm hex key required.

The 20” bed extension (p/n 719401) is optional and

purchased separately. See our website for

information.

The bed extension can be mounted to the upper or

lower holes of the lathe at tailstock end, and lower

holes at headstock end. Mounting in upper holes

increases spindle length capacity of lathe.

Mounting extension to lower holes allows use of

tool support during outboard turning.

1. Slide tailstock away from edge of bed.

2. Have an assistant hold bed extension flush to

end of lathe bed, and insert screws and

washers provided with bed extension (P,

Figure 5-6). Snug screws just enough to hold

bed extension to lathe bed.

3. Unscrew stud from lathe bed (O

), and insert it

into hole at end of bed extension (O

4. Adjust bed extension to lathe bed, aligning the

surface and the inside ways as closely as

possible.

IMPORTANT: Top surface of bed extension

must be flush with surface of lathe bed, and

inside ways must be aligned, to allow smooth

movement of tailstock across joint.

5. Slide tailstock over joint where beds meet, so

that clamping nut is centered over joint, as

shown in Figure 5-6. Lock tailstock clamping

handle; this will align the beds.

6. Securely tighten screws (P) in bed extension.

7. Unlock tailstock and slide it back and forth to

test smoothness of joint. Make further

adjustments if needed.

Figure 5-6: installing bed extension (optional)

accessory)

6mm hex key required.

The spindle comparator bracket and centers are

optional and purchased separately. See our

website for information.

The spindle comparator consists of two centers

inserted into the brackets at rear of lathe. The

comparator is used to mount a finished, or

“reference” spindle, from which measurements can

be taken, the measurements being transferred to

the new piece being turned.

1. Install comparator spur center into guard

bracket, by lifting up on plunger and inserting

comparator spur center until its point is about

even with the point of the spur center in the

headstock spindle. See Figure 5-7. The

plunger in the bracket should engage one of

the holes in the comparator center at this

position.

2. Install comparator bracket to tailstock with

provided fasteners (Figure 5-7). Hand tighten

only.

3. Install comparator dead center in the

comparator bracket and tighten lock handle.

4. Slide tailstock toward headstock until

comparator centers almost touch. Adjust

comparator bracket as needed until centers

align. Tighten screws firmly.

5. Mount spur center with the spindle blank that

you will be turning. Loosen tailstock locking

handle, and slide tailstock until live center is

about 1-inch from spindle blank, then tighten

locking handle. Advance live center using

tailstock handwheel, until live center is secured

in spindle blank.

6. Mount reference spindle between comparator

centers.

NOTE: Reference spindle should be mounted

last after all adjustment of tailstock and quill

has been accomplished with spindle blank.

Likewise, when turning operation is complete,

remove reference spindle first.

6.0 Electrical connections

Electrical connections must

be made by a qualified electrician in

compliance with all relevant codes. This

machine must be properly grounded to help

prevent electrical shock and possible fatal

injury.

The JWL-1840EVS and JWL-1840DVR lathes

require 230-volt single-phase input.

As received from the factory, the JWL-1840EVS

and JWL-1840DVR is ready to run at 230-volt

operation. This tool is intended for use on a circuit

that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated

in Figure 6-1. The tool has a grounding plug that

looks like the plug illustrated in Figure 6-1. Make

sure the tool is connected to an outlet having the

same configuration as the plug. No adapter is

available or should be used with this tool. If the tool

must be reconnected for use on a different type of

electric circuit, the reconnection should be made by

qualified service personnel; and after reconnection,

the tool should comply with all local codes and

ordinances.

IMPORTANT: The JWL-1840EVS and JWL-

1840DVR Lathes cannot be run on a GFCI circuit.

Figure 6-1: grounding

Before connecting to power source, be sure switch

is in off position.

It is recommended that the lathe be connected to a

dedicated 15 amp circuit with a circuit breaker or

fuse. If connected to a circuit protected by fuses,

use time delay fuse marked “D”. Local codes

take precedence over recommendations.

6.1 GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This tool must be grounded. In the event of a

malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a

path of least resistance for electric current to

reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is

equipped with an electric cord having an

equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding

plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate

outlet that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper connection of the

equipment-grounding conductor can result in a

risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified

electrician or service person if you are in doubt

as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided with the tool –

if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet

installed by a qualified electrician.

The conductor with insulation having an outer

surface that is green with or without yellow stripes

is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or

replacement of the electric cord or plug is

necessary, do not connect the equipment-

grounding conductor to a live terminal.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong

grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept

the tool's plug.

Repair or replace damaged or worn cord

immediately.

A lightning strike or power

surge may cause inverter failure. When lathe is

not in use, disconnect power plug, or have a 3-

or 4-pole disconnect installed on the power

side.

6.2 Extension cords

The use of extension cords is discouraged; try to

position equipment within reach of the power

source. If an extension cord becomes necessary,

be sure it is heavy enough to carry the current your

product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a

drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and

overheating.

Table 1 shows recommended size to use

depending on cord length and nameplate ampere

rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The

smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Always lock headstock in

position before operating lathe.

Figure 7-1: headstock movement

7.1.2 Rotation

IMPORTANT: Remove anti-rotation block (Figure

7-2) with 4mm hex key before attempting to rotate

headstock.

Figure 7-2: anti-rotation block

To rotate headstock:

1. Push handle (A, Figure 7-1) down to unlock.

2. Unscrew knurled knob (B) counterclockwise

until it can be pulled outward.

3. Pull knob (B) outward and rotate headstock to

desired position. The headstock has seven

positive locking positions. NOTE: Be careful

not to pinch your fingers against the bed as

you rotate headstock.

4. Release knob (B) and it will seat itself with an

audible click when the headstock reaches a

positive lock position.

5. Raise handle (A) to lock headstock.

6. Rotate knob (B) clockwise until it engages the

threads.

Always engage locking handle

(A) before operating lathe.

7.2 Tailstock movement

To slide tailstock, push locking handle (C, Figure 7-

3) down toward bed. Push handle up to lock

tailstock in position.

To move quill, loosen handle (D) and rotate

handwheel (E).

Make sure tailstock is locked

to bed (C) and quill is tightened (D) before

turning a spindle on the lathe.

Figure 7-3: tailstock movement

7.3 Removing items from bed

To remove headstock, tailstock or toolrest base

from bed, unscrew and remove either of the studs

(see O, Figure 5-6). Unlock the item and slide it off

bed. After remounting these items on the lathe,

reinstall studs.

For most turning operations, except outboard

turning, the headstock is positioned at the left end

of bed, and the tailstock moved to accommodate

the workpiece.

7.4 Cam tightness

The clamping mechanisms of headstock, tailstock

and tool rest base are pre-set by the manufacturer,

and should not require adjustment.

If one of them does not tighten properly against the

bed when the locking handle is tightened, adjust it

as follows. (Figure 7-4 uses tailstock as example.)

Figure 7-4: cam adjustment

1. Remove stud from end of lathe bed, and slide

tailstock off.

2. Turn tailstock on its side, and tighten lock nut

(F, Figure 7-4) to increase cam pressure, or

loosen the nut to relieve cam pressure.

3. Mount tailstock on bed and lock it to verify

adjustment. Repeat as needed.

4. Reinstall stud.

7.5 Tool rest

See Figure 7-5.

A 14-inch tool rest is provided with your lathe. It is

designed to allow adjustment for height, position on

the bed, and angle to the work.

Loosen locking handle on tool rest base (G, Figure

7-5) to slide base forward or back, and to angle it

to the bed. Tighten locking handle firmly before

operating lathe.

Loosen handle (H) to raise or lower tool rest and

angle it to the work. Tighten handle before

operating lathe.

Figure 7-5: tool rest

7.6 Tool rest extension

See Figure 7-6.

The extension (J, Figure 7-6) mounts to the tool

rest base and offers greater reach for the tool rest

when turning off the bed using the headstock at an

angle.

Make sure the clamp bushings (K) are pulled apart

sufficiently to accept tool rest post.

Figure 7-6

7.7 Locking handles

Locking handles, such as H, Figure 7-5, are

adjustable. Simply lift out on handle, rotate it on the

pin, then release it, making sure it seats itself on

the pin.

7.8 Spindle indexing

See Figure 7-7.

Indexing is used to create evenly spaced features

in a workpiece, while keeping the lathe spindle

locked; for example, when cutting flutes on a

spindle blank with a hand-held router, while the

spindle blank is secured between lathe centers.

The JWL-1840EVS lathe provides 36 indexing

positions at 10-degree increments.

1. Rotate spindle using handwheel until index pin

(L, Figure 7-7) aligns with desired hole.

2. Screw index pin into hole until it engages

spindle.

3. Perform desired procedure.

4. Unscrew index pin until spindle is released.

Rotate spindle to next desired hole, and

repeat.

Disengage index pin before

starting lathe.

IMPORTANT: Do not use index pin to lock spindle,

which will cause unnecessary wear to the pin. Use

spindle lock for this purpose.

Figure 7-7: index pin

7.9 Spur center: Installing/removing

The spur center is installed into the headstock

spindle. The center should first be mounted to your

workpiece, and then installed into the spindle. See

section 9.4.

1. Disconnect lathe from power source.

2. Clean tapered end of center, and inside of

headstock spindle, then push center into

headstock spindle.

3. To remove a center, first remove workpiece

from lathe. Insert knockout rod (Figure 7-8)

through hole in handwheel and tap the end of

spur center.

IMPORTANT: Hold the center by either

placing your thumb and forefinger on outside

diameter of spur center, or wrapping the center

with a rag. The center can be damaged if

allowed to fall.

Figure 7-8: removing spur center

7.10 Live center: Installing/removing

Live centers are installed into the tailstock quill.

See Figure 7-9.

1. Disconnect lathe from power source.

2. Clean tapered end of center and inside of

tailstock quill, then push center into quill. Test

the insertion by attempting to pull the center

out of the quill by hand. It should remain

secure within the quill.

3. Always tighten quill locking handle (M), once

the live center has been properly positioned in

workpiece. Make sure keyway (N) in quill is

aligned with locking handle.

To remove a live center:

4. Back off tailstock and remove workpiece from

lathe.

5. Loosen quill lock handle (M).

6. Rotate handwheel counterclockwise to retract

quill all the way, until live center comes out.

Hold the center while doing this to prevent it

from falling.

Figure 7-9: installing live center

7.11 Live center and cone

The live cone center, shown in Figure 7-10, can be

used without the cone. To remove cone from live

center, first insert pin through hole in live center

body as shown. If pin will not insert at first, rotate

cone until pin can be inserted. The cone can now

be removed by holding the body stationary while

unscrewing cone.

Figure 7-10: removing cone from live center

7.12 Spindle lock

Push spindle lock pin (P, Figure 7-11) and rotate

spindle slightly until pin engages. Slide plate

downward to hold pin in locking position.

Release spindle lock by pushing plate upward.

Figure 7-11: spindle lock and face plate

7.13 Face plate: Installing/removing

1. Disconnect lathe from power source.

2. Mount face plate to your workpiece.

3. Engage spindle lock.

4. Install face plate onto threads of headstock

spindle and rotate clockwise as far as it will go.

5. Tighten both set screws in face plate. Face

plate is now ready for turning.

Make certain set screws in

face plate are tight before reversing lathe

spindle rotation.

6. To remove face plate, engage spindle lock.

Loosen both set screws in face plate, and

turn face plate counterclockwise with face

plate wrench to loosen.

7.14 Checking center alignment

When headstock is returned from outboard

position, the alignment between centers should be

checked.

1. Lock headstock in normal spindle turning

position.

2. Slide tailstock toward headstock until centers

almost touch (see Figure 7-12). Lock tailstock

in position.

Figure 7-12: center alignment

3. View the center points from top and side to

make sure they align.

4. If centers do not align, unlock headstock and

pivot it slightly. There should be enough “play”

in headstock to adjust for this alignment. Lock

headstock when finished.

7.15 Speed Range Adjustment (JWL-

1840EVS only)

See Figure 7-13.

1. Disconnect lathe from power source.

2. To change speed range, open access door on

headstock.

3. Loosen pivot lock handle (A, Figure 7-13) and

lift up tension handle (B) to raise motor.

Tighten pivot lock handle (A) to hold motor in

raised position.

4. There should be sufficient slack in the belt to

reposition it to the other steps on the sheaves.

The label on access door shows required belt

position (also shown in Figure 7-14).

5. Loosen pivot lock handle (A) and lower motor

to tension belt. Be sure that Poly-V grooves of

belt seat properly in corresponding groove of

sheave. Do not over-tension; a very light

pressure on tension handle (B) is adequate to

prevent belt slippage.

6. Tighten pivot lock handle (A) and close access

door.

Figure 7-13: speed range adjustment

8.0 Operating controls

See Figures 8-1,8-2.

On/off switch (C): Pull to start lathe, push to stop.

The safety key (C

) can be removed to prevent

unauthorized use of lathe. The safety key must be

inserted to restart the lathe.

[The JWL-1840DVR requires about 20 seconds

after shut down due to full capacitor charge.

Machine will shut off after capacitor has been

discharged.]

Note: If a power outage occurs during operation,

the lathe will not immediately restart when power

resumes. Cycle the ON switch to restart.

Remote switch: The remote emergency stop

switch (or E-stop) has a magnetic base, and can

be positioned on any metal surface of the lathe.

When remote switch is pushed, cycle the ON

switch on headstock to restart lathe.

Figure 8-1: switch safety key

Speed control knob (D): Clockwise to increase,

counterclockwise to decrease. Speed is displayed

as RPM (revolutions per minute) on digital readout

(E).

Change speed while lathe

spindle is turning to avoid overstressing belt.

Figure 8-2: operating controls

Forward/Reverse (F)

JWL-1840EVS: Switch can be moved while lathe is

running. Machine will slow to a stop, then reverse

direction.

JWL-1840DVR: In normal mode, forward/reverse

switch can be moved while lathe is running.

Machine will slow to a stop, then reverse direction.

In education mode, first turn off machine (C) then

move forward/reverse switch. If switch is moved

during operation, lathe will slow to a stop, and

“RSET” or similar will appear in readout. Turn off

switch (C), wait to hear two “beeps”, then turn on

switch to continue.

When turning with a face plate,

make sure both set screws on face plate are

tight before reversing spindle direction. Failure

to comply may cause face plate to spin loose

from spindle.

8.1 AC Inverter (JWL-1840EVS only)

The 1840EVS Lathe uses the latest technology in

A.C. inverter drives to provide infinitely variable

spindle speeds within the specified ranges (see

sect. 4.0, Specifications). The inverter controls the

speed of the motor by varying the frequency of the

voltage supplied to the motor. The inverter takes

the 1-phase input from the power cord and

converts it to the 3-phase output required by the

drive motor.

The inverter provides an acceleration ramp that

eliminates the shock of normal starting. Also, a

braking feature eliminates long coasting periods

after the Lathe is turned off.

The 2-horsepower motor is designed for use with

inverter drives, and is balanced to reduce noise

and minimize vibration.

The A.C. Inverter is pre-programmed from the

factory. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADJUST

INVERTER SETTINGS. Use only the controls on

front of headstock. If you suspect a problem with

the inverter or inverter settings, contact JET

technical service at 1-800-274-6848.

A lightning strike or power

surge may cause inverter failure. When lathe is

not in use, disconnect power plug, or have a 3-

or 4-pole disconnect installed on the power

side.

8.2 DVR (JWL-1840DVR only)

See Figure 8-3.

The JWL-1840DVR uses a digital variable

reluctance motor, which monitors load on the motor

(i.e. pressure of chisel on workpiece) and adjusts

speed to compensate, while maintaining maximum

torque for each operation. The DVR delivers only

enough power to maintain set speed, thus

providing energy efficiency.

Main switch (G): Turn on to activate DVR controls.

Mode-selection switch (H): Select normal mode

or education mode. Education mode provides

additional features which are explained below.

Figure 8-3: JWL-1840DVR mode switch

8.2.2 Education mode features

When education mode is selected, “EDUC” or

similar, will appear in the readout.

Auto braking: When main switch (C, Figure 8-2)

is turned off, the motor will brake to a stop within

seconds. (In normal mode, machine will coast to a

stop.) Also, if a chisel catches in the workpiece

auto braking will activate.

Auto idle: If machine detects no load after 4

minutes, “IDLE” will appear in readout. The user

can move any controls on headstock to continue

working. If no controls are touched after 1 minute,

lathe will shut off.

Start-up speed: To select a particular start-up

speed:

1. Rotate speed dial (D, Figure 8-2) until desired

speed shows in readout.

2. Press and hold speed dial for 10 seconds until

readout number flashes.

3. Press speed dial again until number stops

flashing. When lathe is turned off and

restarted, it will start up at selected speed and

maintain it during operation.

9.0 Operation

The information which follows is general in nature

and not intended to be a complete course in

woodturning. Nothing can replace knowledge

gained by talking to experienced woodturners or

consulting books or trade magazines. Above all,

simple trial and error will aid in developing

proficiency in the craft.

9.1 Inspection

Before operating the lathe, check that everything is

in proper working order:

1. Level your machine; use the leveling feet to

help reduce vibration.

2. Check bearings; adjust only if endplay exists.

3. Check belt; it should be snug but not overly

tight.

4. Bed ways; keep clean, use steel wool to

remove any rust spots, and apply paste wax to

prevent buildup of rust and finishes.

5. Tool rest; use a mill file to remove nicks and

dings.

6. Spindle tapers; should be clean and free of

dust and chips for proper seating of tapers.

7. Tailstock; clean and lubricate quill and locking

device.

8. Lighting; proper lighting is essential to

eliminate shadows and reduce eye strain.

9.2 Turning Tools

If possible, select only good-quality, high-speed

steel turning tools. High-speed steel tools hold an

edge and last longer than ordinary carbon steel. As

one becomes proficient in turning, a variety of

specialty tools for specific applications can be

acquired. The following tools provide the basics for

most woodturning projects (see Figure 9-1):

Skews – 1-1/2" and 1" or 1-1/4", used to make

finishing cuts and details.

Large Roughing Gouge – 1" to 1-1/4", used to

eliminate waste wood.

Spindle Gouges – 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", used to turn

beads, coves and other details.

Deep Fluted Bowl Gouge – 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2",

used for turning bowls & plates.

Square Scraper (Bedan) – 3/8” or 1/2", used to

create square shoulders.

Large Round Nose (Domed) Scraper – 1-1/2",

used to reduce ridges on interior of bowls, round

edges of bowls, etc.

Parting Tool - 1/8", used for scraping, making a

cut-off, or to set diameters for sizing.

For safety and best performance, keep tools sharp.

If a tool stops cutting or requires excessive

pressure to make a cut, it needs to be sharpened.

A number of brand name sharpening jigs and

fixtures are available; however, a woodturner

should learn to sharpen tools freehand.

For best results, use a slow speed grinder (1800

rpm) fitted with a 60-grit aluminum oxide wheel (for

shaping) and a 100-grit alum. oxide wheel (for final

sharpening and touchup). The grinder should be

located near your lathe and at a comfortable

height. A diamond dresser will keep the wheels

true and eliminate glazing. Never allow the tool to

rest in one place on the wheel, keep it moving and

use a light touch.

Figure 9-1: basic turning tools

Carbon steel tools can overheat easily and should

be cooled frequently. If the edge turns blue, it has

lost its temper and should be ground past the blue

area. High-speed steel tools are not as likely to

overheat, but can be damaged if allowed to get red

hot. High-speed steel tools should not be

quenched for cooling. Honing with a diamond lap

or slipstone will save trips to the grinder and keep

the edge fresh.

9.3 Spindle Turning

Spindle turning takes place between the centers of

the lathe. It requires a spur or drive center in the

headstock and a live or dead center in the tailstock.

A cup center rather than a cone center in the

tailstock will often reduce the risk of splitting the

stock.

Figure 9-2 shows the basic profile shapes in

spindle turning.

Figure 9-2

9.4 Stock Selection

Stock for spindles should be straight grained and

free of checks, cracks, knots and other defects. It

should be cut 1/8" to 1/4" larger than the finished

diameter and may require additional length so the

ends can be removed later. Larger stock should

have the corners removed to produce an octagon

making the piece easier to rough down to a

cylinder.

1. With a combination square, or plastic center

finder for round stock, locate and mark center

on each end of the workpiece. Accuracy is not

critical on full rounds but extremely important

on stock where square sections are to remain.

Put a dimple in the stock with an awl or nail, or

use a spring-loaded automatic center punch.

2. Extremely hard woods may require kerfs cut

into the ends of the stock (Figure 9-3) using a

band saw, so the wood will accept the spur

center and the live center.

Figure 9-3

3. Drive the spur center about 1/4” into the

workpiece, using a wood mallet or dead blow

hammer as shown in Figure 9-4. Be careful

that you do not split the workpiece.

Never use a steel face

hammer and never drive the workpiece

onto the spur center while it is mounted in

the Lathe spindle.

Figure 9-4

4. Make sure headstock is locked to lathe bed.

5. Clean tapered end of spur center and inside of

headstock spindle.

6. Insert tapered end of spur center (with the

attached workpiece) into headstock spindle.

7. Support the workpiece while bringing the

tailstock into position about 1-inch away from

end of workpiece. Lock tailstock to bed.

8. Advance tailstock quill with the handwheel in

order to seat the live center into the workpiece.

Use enough pressure to secure the workpiece

between the centers so that it won’t fly off, but

do not use excessive pressure.

9. Tighten quill locking handle.

The tailstock quill is capable

of exerting excessive pressure against

workpiece and headstock. Apply only sufficient

force with tailstock to hold workpiece securely

in place. Excessive pressure can overheat

center bearings and damage both workpiece

and lathe.

10. Move tool rest into position. It should be

parallel to workpiece, just below the centerline

and approximately 1/8" to 1/4" from the

corners of the workpiece to be turned, as in

Figure 9-5. Tighten tool rest base to Lathe

bed.

11. Rotate workpiece by hand to check for proper

clearance.

12. Start lathe at lowest speed and bring it up to

the appropriate RPM for the size of workpiece

used. Consult digital readout on the

headstock.

Figure 9-5

9.5 Cutting Techniques

9.5.1 Roughing Out

1. Begin with a large roughing gouge. Place the

tool on the tool rest with the heel of the tool on

the surface to be cut.

2. Slowly and gently raise tool handle until cutting

edge comes into contact with the workpiece.

3. Beginning about 2” from the tailstock end of

the workpiece, roll the flute (hollowed-out

portion) of the tool in the direction of the cut.

See Figure 9-6. Make long sweeping cuts in a

continuous motion to rough the piece down to

a cylinder.

4. Keep as much of the bevel of the tool as

possible in contact with the workpiece to

ensure control and avoid catches. NOTE:

Always cut down-hill, or from large diameter to

small diameter. Always work toward the end of

a work-piece, never start cutting at the end.

Figure 9-6

5. Once the workpiece is roughed down to a

cylinder, smooth it with a large skew. Keep the

skew handle perpendicular to the spindle and

use only the center third of the cutting edge for

a long smoothing cut (touching one of the

points of the skew to the spinning workpiece

may cause a catch and ruin the workpiece).

6. Add details to the workpiece with skew, parting

tool, scraper or spindle gouge.

9.5.2 Beads

1. Make a parting cut for what is to be a bead to

the desired depth. Place the parting tool on the

tool support and move tool forward to make

the full bevel of the tool come into contact with

the workpiece. Gently raise handle to make cut

to the appropriate depth.

2. Repeat for other side of the bead.

3. Using a small skew or spindle gouge, start in

the center between the two cuts and cut down

each side to form the bead. Roll the tool in

direction of cut.

9.5.3 Coves

1. Use a spindle gouge. With the flute of the tool

at 90 degrees to the workpiece, touch the point

of the tool to the workpiece and roll in towards

the bottom of the cove. See Figure 9-7. Stop

at the bottom; attempting to go up the

opposite side may cause the tool to catch.

Figure 9-7

2. Move the tool over the desired width of the

cove.

3. With the flute facing the opposite direction,

repeat step 1 for other side of cove. Stop at

bottom of cut.

9.5.4 "V" Cuts

1. Use the long point of the skew. (NOTE: Do not

press the long point of the skew directly into

the workpiece to create the "V"; this will result

in a burned or burnished "V" with fibers being

rolled up at both sides.)

2. Lightly mark the center of the "V" with the tip of

the skew.

3. Move the point of the skew to the right half of

the desired width of your cut.

4. With the bevel parallel to the right side of the

cut, raise the handle and push the tool in to the

desired depth, as shown in Figure 9-8.

Figure 9-8

5. Repeat from the left side. The two cuts should

meet at the bottom and leave a clean "V" cut.

6. Additional cuts may be taken to add to either

the depth or width of the cut.

9.5.5 Parting Off

1. Use parting tool.

2. Adjust lathe speed to lower RPM for parting

through a workpiece.

3. Place tool on tool support and raise the handle

until it starts to cut and continue to cut toward

center of workpiece.

4. Loosely hold on to the piece in one hand as it

separates from the waste wood.

9.5.6 Sanding and Finishing

Leaving clean cuts will reduce the amount of

sanding required. Move the tool support out of the

way, adjust the lathe to a low speed, and begin

with fine sandpaper (120 grit or finer). Coarser

sandpaper will leave deep scratches that are

difficult to remove, and dull crisp details on the

spindle. Progress through each grit without

skipping grits (for example, do not jump from 120

grit to 220 grit). Fold the sandpaper into a pad; do

not wrap sandpaper around your fingers or the

workpiece.To apply a finish, the workpiece can be

left on the lathe.

Turn off lathe and use a brush or paper towel to

apply the finish. Remove excess finish before

restarting lathe. Allow to dry and sand again with

320 or 400 grit sandpaper. Apply second coat of

finish and buff.

9.6 Face Plate and Bowl Turning

Face plate turning is normally done on the inboard

side of the headstock over the bed. Larger

workpieces must be turned on the outboard side.

Rotate headstock to desired position; or remove

tailstock and tool support base, and slide

headstock to opposite end of bed.

9.6.1 Mounting Stock

Use of a face plate is the most common method for

holding a block of wood for turning bowls and

plates:

1. Select stock at least 1/8" to 1/4" larger than

each dimension on the finished workpiece.

2. Always select the largest diameter face plate

that can be used for the workpiece to be

turned.

3. True one surface of the workpiece for

mounting against the face plate.

4. Using the face plate as a template, mark the

location of the mounting holes on the

workpiece, and drill pilot holes of the

appropriate size. Face plates are drilled for No.

12 screws. (Phillips and square drive screws

will hold up better than slotted screws. Sheel

metal screws are case hardened with deeper

and sharper threads than wood screws.)

If the mounting screws on the face plate interfere

with the workpiece, a glue or waste block can be

used:

5. Make a block the same diameter as the face

plate, Figure 9-9. Both waste block and

workpiece should have flat surfaces for gluing.

6. Glue the block to the workpiece. Avoid using

brown paper or newspaper between the waste

block and workpiece. It may work fine if you

are using scrapers, but a slight catch with a

bowl gouge can separate the two.

NOTE: When using a waste block, be careful with

the adhesive you select. Dry workpieces can be

bonded with ordinary white or yellow glue but must

be clamped to ensure a good bond. Green

workpieces require cyanoacrylate type glue.

Figure 9-9

9.6.2 Faceplate or Chuck?

While faceplates are the simplest, most reliable

method of holding a block of wood for turning,

chucks can also be used. As there are dozens of

chucks to choose from, the woodturner should first

consider all the different types of turning that will be

done, and read reports or discuss with other

turners who own chucks before making a decision.

A chuck is not a requirement, but is handy when

working on more than one piece at a time. Rather

than removing screws, you simply open the chuck

and change workpieces.

The most popular ones are four jaw scroll chucks

with a variety of jaws to accommodate different

size tenons. Most also come with a screw chuck as

well.

9.6.3 Wood Selection

Firewood is the cheapest, most widely available

stock to use while learning to turn bowls. Simply

waste wood for a while practicing turning

techniques. Develop skill with each tool before

attempting to make a finished piece. It is best to

start with dry wood, without worrying about drying

or distortion. Once turning becomes comfortable,

try green wood which cuts very easily. As the

turner gains experience, he or she will find

extraordinary grain and figure in the form of burls,

crotches and bark inclusions.

9.6.4 Checks and Cracks

Green wood will check and crack. For best results,

leave logs in as long a length as you can handle.

As the material starts to dry, surface cracks will

develop on the ends of the log. Cut off two to three

inches and you should find good, sound wood.

Also cut the log in half along the pith to avoid

having it in the finished piece. Most checks radiate

from the pith.

As you turn bowls from green wood, make sure

you maintain a consistent wall thickness

throughout the piece. Leaving a piece thick in

some areas and thin in others will cause the wood

to dry unevenly and promote checks and cracks.

9.6.5 Distortion

Distortion is a problem associated with turning

green wood. It will vary from one type of wood to

the next. Typically, fruitwoods tend to distort more

than others. It also varies with the time of year the

tree was cut and how the logs are stored.

9.6.6 Tools for Bowl Turning

The deep fluted bowl gouge is the most essential

and versatile tool for most bowl and plate turning.

The bowl gouge is heavier and easier to control

than other types of gouges. It also allows removal

of wood much faster and with less vibration than

other gouges. Most average sized bowl work can

be accomplished with a 3/8" or 1/2" bowl gouge.

A 1/4" bowl gouge is best suited for smaller bowls

and light finishing cuts. Larger 3/4" and 1" bowl

gouges are only used for extremely large pieces.

Large domed scrapers can also be used to help

clean up the interior surfaces of bowls. A light

touch with the scraper slightly tilted will eliminate

some of the ridges occasionally left by an

inexperienced bowl gouge.

9.7 Bowl Turning Techniques

9.7.1 To Shape Outside of Bowl

1. Odd shaped burls, crotches and other irregular

shaped blanks require special preparation

before mounting in a chuck or onto a

faceplate. Remove the bark, if there is any,

from what appears to be the center of the top

of the workpiece.

2. Drive spur center into the top of the workpiece

with a mallet or dead blow hammer.

3. Slip the spur center into the headstock taper

and bring the tailstock with a live or ball

bearing center into position. Lock the tailstock

to the bed and advance the tailstock spindle in

order to seat the cup center into the

workpiece. Tighten the ram locking handle.

4. Turn workpiece by hand to ensure proper

clearance.

5. Start lathe at lowest speed and bring it up to

the maximum safe speed for the size of work

to be turned. If the machine starts to vibrate,

lower the speed until vibration stops.

6. Rough out the outside of the bowl with the 1/2"

deep fluted bowl gouge, holding the handle of

the tool firmly against your hip. For best

control, use your whole body to move the

gouge through the workpiece.

7. As the bowl takes shape, work on the bottom

(tailstock end) to accommodate attaching a

face plate.

8. Turn a short tenon (about 1/8" long) the size of

the hole in the faceplate. See Figure 9-10. This

will allow centering the workpiece when the

faceplate is attached.

(NOTE: If you plan to use a chuck, turn a

tenon of the appropriate length and diameter

to fit your chuck.)

9. Stop the lathe, remove workpiece and attach

face plate or chuck (see section 9.6.1

"Mounting Stock").

The surfaces of faceplate

and workpiece should mount flush to each

other.

10. Finish turning the outside of bowl with 1/2" or

3/8" bowl gouge. Leave additional material at

base of bowl for support while turning interior.

This will be removed later.

Figure 9-10

9.7.2 To Shape Interior of Bowl

1. Stop lathe and move tailstock away. (You may

want to remove the center from the tailstock to

avoid bumping it with your elbow.)

2. Adjust tool support in front of the bowl just

below centerline, at a right angle to the lathe

ways.

3. Rotate workpiece by hand to check clearance.

4. Face off top of bowl by making a light shearing

cut across the top of workpiece, from rim to

center.

5. Place 1/2" bowl gouge on tool support at

center of the workpiece with the flute facing

top of bowl. The tool handle should be level

and pointed toward the four o'clock position, as

shown in Figure 9-11.

6. Use the left hand to control cutting edge of

gouge, while right hand swings tool handle

toward your body (Figure 9-11). The flute

should start out facing top of workpiece, and

rotate upward as it moves deeper into the bowl

to maintain a clean even curve. As the tool

goes deeper into the bowl, progressively work

out toward the rim. It may be necessary to turn

the tool support into the piece as you get

deeper into the bowl.

(NOTE: Try to make one, very light continuous

movement from the rim to the bottom of the

bowl to ensure a clean, sweeping curve

through the piece.

Should there be a few small ridges left, a light

cut with a large domed scraper can even out

the surface.)

Figure 9-11

7. Develop wall thickness at the rim and maintain

it as you work deeper into the bowl (Once the

piece is thin toward the bottom, you cannot

make it thinner at the rim). When the interior is

finished, move the tool support to exterior to

re-define bottom of bowl. (General rule of

thumb: the base should be approximately 1/3

the overall diameter of the bowl).

8. Work the tight area around faceplate or chuck

with 1/4" bowl gouge.

9. Begin the separation with a parting tool, but do

not cut all the way through yet.

9.7.3 Sanding and Finishing

1. Remove the tool support and adjust lathe

speed to approximately 500 RPM. Higher

speeds can build friction while sanding and

cause heat check in some woods.

2. Begin with fine sandpaper (120 grit) and

progress through each grit, using only light

pressure. Coarser sandpaper tends to leave

deep scratches that are hard to eliminate. Use

power-sanding techniques to avoid concentric

sanding marks around your finished piece.

Avoid rounding over the rim and foot with

sandpaper; try to keep details crisp. Finish

sanding with 220 grit.

3. Remove sanding dust with tack rags or

compressed air and, with lathe turned off,

apply first coat of finish. Let stand for several

minutes, wipe off excess. Allow to dry before

sanding again with 320 or 400 grit sandpaper.

4. Turn lathe back on and continue the

separation cut almost all the way through the

base. Stop at about 3" and use a small fine

tooth saw to separate the bowl from the waste.

5. Apply second finish coat and allow to dry

before buffing.

10.0 User-maintenance

Before doing maintenance on

the lathe, disconnect it from the electrical

supply by pulling out the plug or switching off

the main switch. Failure to comply may cause

serious injury.

10.1 General procedures

Maintenance on the JWL-1840EVS and JWL-

1840DVR lathe should be performed at periodic

intervals to ensure that the machine is in proper

working order, that all fasteners are tight, and all

necessary adjustments have been made.

Inspection and maintenance should be performed

at least twice a year, but more frequently if the

lathe receives constant use.

Clean and oil the lathe bed so that headstock,

tailstock and tool rest base will slide easily. Clean

any rust spots that may develop on the bed with a

commercial rust remover.

Use compressed air to blow out the interior of the

headstock, in order to keep sawdust and chips

from accumulating on belts and sheaves. Also blow

off debris that accumulates in the motor fan and

around inverter. Do not disassemble inverter to

clean!

Frequently clean out the Morse tapers on both

headstock and tailstock. Commercially available

taper cleaners may be acquired from tool stores.

Bearings are permanently lubricated and sealed,

and do not require further lubrication.

10.2 Pulley and belt alignment

The motor and spindle pulleys are aligned with

each other by the manufacturer, but if any service

is performed that affects their alignment it is very

important that they be realigned. Engage spindle

lock, loosen two set screws on spindle pulley (E,

Figure 9-12) with 3mm hex key, and slide spindle

pulley into proper position. Retighten set screws,

and disengage spindle lock.

When pulleys and belt are properly aligned, there

should be no unusual pulsing sounds or noise

coming from the belt.

10.3 Pulley and belt replacement

See Figure 9-12.

3mm hex key required.

To change out a belt or pulley, carefully proceed as

follows. If you are uncertain about attempting a belt

or pulley change-out, contact JET technical service

or take the headstock to an authorized service

center.

1. Disconnect lathe from power source.

2. Loosen pivot lock handle (A, Figure 9-12) and

lift up tension handle (B) to raise motor.

3. Tighten pivot lock handle (A) to secure motor

in raised position.

4. Slip belt off pulleys.

5. Loosen two set screws on handwheel (C).

6. Engage spindle lock (D) and unscrew

handwheel from spindle (left-hand threads,

clockwise to loosen).

7. Slide spindle a little way out of headstock, just

enough to remove pulley or belt.

NOTE: If needed, tap end of spindle with a

wood block or rubber mallet to move it. Do

NOT use a steel face hammer directly against

spindle.

8. If replacing a pulley, loosen both set screws

(E), and slide pulley off spindle.

9. Install new pulley, loosely securing the two set

screws. Make sure pulley is oriented properly

and key is inserted properly in spindle groove.

10. Slide spindle back into place.

11. Reinstall handwheel (C) and tighten set

screws.

12. Align new pulley (see sect. 10.2) then tighten

both set screws securely on pulley.

13. Loosen pivot lock handle (A) and lower motor

using tension handle (B). Re-tighten pivot lock

handle.

14. Disengage spindle lock.
