WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine.  
clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become  
entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or  
cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to avoid  
accidental slips, which could cause loss of work-  
piece control.  
It will do the job safer and better at the rate for  
which it was designed.  
NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury  
may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting  
tool is unintentionally contacted.  
HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created while using  
machinery may cause cancer, birth defects, or  
long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust  
hazards associated with each workpiece material,  
and always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to  
reduce your risk.  
STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur-  
ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or  
loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is  
stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.  
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult  
this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec-  
ommended accessories. Using improper acces-  
sories will increase the risk of serious injury.  
HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear-  
ing protection when operating or observing loud  
machinery. Extended exposure to this noise  
without hearing protection can cause permanent  
hearing loss.  
UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the  
risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and  
ensure all moving parts completely stop before  
walking away. Never leave machine running  
while unattended.

Additional Safety for Wood Lathes  
KEEPING GUARDS IN PLACE. Make sure all  
guards are in place and that the lathe sits on a  
flat, stable surface.  
WORKPIECE CONDITION. Always inspect the  
condition of your workpiece. DO NOT turn pieces  
with knots, splits, and other potentially dangerous  
conditions. Make sure joints of glued-up pieces  
have high quality bonds and won't fly apart during  
operation.  
EYE/FACE PROTECTION. Airborne wood dust  
and debris can be hazardous to the eyes/face  
and may cause allergies or long-term respiratory  
health problems. Always wear eye protection or a  
face shield when operating the lathe.  
ADJUSTMENTS/MAINTENANCE. 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.  
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION. Always wear a  
respirator when using this machine. Wood dust  
may cause allergies or long-term respiratory  
health problems.  
STOPPING LATHE. DO NOT stop the lathe by  
using your hand against the workpiece. Allow the  
lathe to stop on its own.  
MOUNTING WORKPIECE. Before starting, be  
certain the workpiece has been properly imbed-  
ded on the headstock and tailstock centers and  
that there is adequate clearance for the full rota-  
tion.  
AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT. Keep long hair  
and loose clothing articles such as sleeves, belts,  
and jewelry items away from the lathe spindle.  
ADJUSTING TOOL REST. 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.  
FACEPLATE TURNING. When faceplate turning,  
make sure the faceplate is securely attached to  
the workpiece and it is properly attached to the  
spindle. When faceplate turning, use lathe chisels  
on the downward spinning side of the workpiece  
only.  
TURNING SPEED. Select the correct turning  
speed for your work, and allow the lathe to gain  
full speed before using.  
SANDING/POLISHING. Remove the tool rest  
when performing sanding or polishing operations  
on the rotating spindle.  
USING SHARP CHISELS. Keep lathe chisels  
properly sharpened and held firmly in position  
when turning.  
MATERIAL REMOVAL RATE. Attempting to  
remove too much material at once may cause  
workpiece to fly out of the lathe.  
OPERATING DAMAGED LATHE. Never oper-  
ate the lathe with damaged or worn parts.  
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 per-  
sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor  
work results.  
Like all machinery there is potential danger  
when operating this machine. Accidents are  
frequently caused by lack of familiarity or  
failure to pay attention. Use this machine  
with respect and caution to lessen the pos-  
sibility of operator injury. If normal safety

Circuit Requirements  
SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY  
Circuit Requirements for 220V  
This machine is prewired to operate on a 220V  
power supply circuit that has a verified ground and  
meets the following requirements:  
Availability  
Before installing the machine, consider the avail-  
ability and proximity of the required power supply  
circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the  
requirements for this machine, a new circuit must  
be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,  
fire, or equipment damage, installation work and  
electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or  
qualified service personnel in accordance with all  
applicable codes and standards.  
Nominal Voltage .............................. 220V/240V  
Cycle..........................................................60 Hz  
Phase.................................................... 1-Phase  
Power Supply Circuit ......................... 15 Amps  
Plug/Receptacle ............................. NEMA 6-15  
A power supply circuit includes all electrical  
equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel  
in the building and the machine. The power sup-  
ply circuit used for this machine must be sized to  
safely handle the full-load current drawn from the  
machine for an extended period of time. (If this  
machine is connected to a circuit protected by  
fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)  
Electrocution, fire, or  
equipment damage may  
occur if machine is not  
correctly grounded and  
connected to the power  
supply.  
Full-Load Current Rating  
For your own safety and protection of  
property, consult an electrician if you are  
unsure about wiring practices or electrical  
codes in your area.  
The full-load current rating is the amperage a  
machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.  
On machines with multiple motors, this is the  
amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all  
motors and electrical devices that might operate  
at one time during normal operations.  
Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to  
a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will  
be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will  
be connected to a shared circuit where multiple  
machines may be running at the same time, con-  
sult an electrician or qualified service personnel to  
ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.  
Full-Load Current Rating at 220V .... 4.7 Amps  
The full-load current is not the maximum amount  
of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine  
is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond  
the full-load rating.  
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length  
of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—  
especially if connected to an undersized circuit.  
To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid over-  
loading the machine during operation and make  
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that  
meets the specified circuit requirements.

Grounding Requirements  
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event  
of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding  
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a  
path of least resistance for electric current.  
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding  
wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The  
wire with green insulation (with or without yellow  
stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair  
or replacement of the power cord or plug is nec-  
essary, do not connect the equipment-grounding  
wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.  
No adapter should be used with the plug. If  
plug does not fit the available receptacle, or  
if machine must be reconnected for use on  
a different type of circuit, the reconnection  
must be performed by an electrician or  
qualified service personnel, and it must  
comply with all local codes and ordinances.  
Check with a qualified electrician or service per-  
sonnel if you do not understand these grounding  
requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether  
the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice  
that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, discon-  
nect it from power, and immediately replace it with  
a new one.  
Extension Cords  
We do not recommend using an extension cord  
with this machine. If you must use an extension  
cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only  
on a temporary basis.  
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can  
damage electrical components and shorten motor  
life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord  
size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller  
(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).  
Serious injury could occur if you connect  
the machine to power before completing the  
setup process. DO NOT connect to power  
until instructed later in this manual.  
Any extension cord used with this machine must  
be in good condition and contain a ground wire  
and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must  
meet the following size requirements:  
For 220V operation: The plug specified under  
“Circuit Requirements for 220V” on the previous  
page has a grounding prong that must be attached  
to the equipment-grounding wire on the included  
power cord. The plug must only be inserted into  
a matching receptacle (see following figure) that  
is properly installed and grounded in accordance  
with all local codes and ordinances.

Site Considerations  
CleanCUpleanup  
Gasoline and petroleum  
products have low flash  
points and can explode  
or cause fire if used to  
clean machinery. Avoid  
using these products  
to clean machinery.  
The unpainted surfaces of your machine are  
coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that  
prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.  
This rust preventative works extremely well, but it  
will take a little time to clean.  
Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your  
machine. The time you spend doing this now will  
give you a better appreciation for the proper care  
of your machine's unpainted surfaces.  
Many cleaning solvents  
are toxic if inhaled. Only  
work in a well-ventilated  
area.  
There are many ways to remove this rust preven-  
tative, but the following steps work well in a wide  
variety of situations. Always follow the manufac-  
turer’s instructions with any cleaning product you  
use and make sure you work in a well-ventilated  
area to minimize exposure to toxic fumes.  
NOTICE  
Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as  
acetone or brake parts cleaner, that may  
damage painted surfaces.  
Before cleaning, gather the following:  
Disposable rags  
Cleaner/degreaser (WD•40 works well)  
Safety glasses & disposable gloves  
Plastic paint scraper (optional)  
T23692—Orange Power Degreaser  
A great product for removing the waxy shipping  
Basic steps for removing rust preventative:  
grease from your machine during clean up.  
1. Put on safety glasses.  
2. Coat the rust preventative with a liberal  
amount of cleaner/degreaser, then let it soak  
for 5–10 minutes.  
3. Wipe off the surfaces. If your cleaner/degreas-  
er is effective, the rust preventative will wipe  
off easily. If you have a plastic paint scraper,  
scrape off as much as you can first, then wipe  
off the rest with the rag.  
4. Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,  
then coat all unpainted surfaces with a quality  
metal protectant to prevent rust.

Site Considerations  
Weight Load  
Physical Environment  
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight  
of your machine. Make sure that the surface upon  
which the machine is placed will bear the weight  
of the machine, additional equipment that may be  
installed on the machine, and the heaviest work-  
piece that will be used. Additionally, consider the  
weight of the operator and any dynamic loading  
that may occur when operating the machine.  
The physical environment where the machine is  
operated is important for safe operation and lon-  
gevity of machine components. For best results,  
operate this machine in a dry environment that is  
free from excessive moisture, hazardous chemi-  
cals, airborne abrasives, or extreme conditions.  
Extreme conditions for this type of machinery are  
generally those where the ambient temperature  
range exceeds 41°–104°F; the relative humidity  
range exceeds 20%–95% (non-condensing); or  
the environment is subject to vibration, shocks,  
or bumps.  
Space Allocation  
Consider the largest size of workpiece that will  
be processed through this machine and provide  
enough space around the machine for adequate  
operator material handling or the installation of  
auxiliary equipment. With permanent installations,  
leave enough space around the machine to open  
or remove doors/covers as required by the main-  
tenance and service described in this manual.  
See below for required space allocation.  
Electrical Installation  
Place this machine near an existing power source.  
Make sure all power cords are protected from  
traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals, or  
other hazards. Make sure to leave enough space  
around machine to disconnect power supply or  
apply a lockout/tagout device, if required.  
Lighting  
Children or untrained people  
may be seriously injured by  
this machine. Only install in an  
access restricted location.  
Lighting around the machine must be adequate  
enough that operations can be performed safely.  
Shadows, glare, or strobe effects that may distract  
or impede the operator must be eliminated.

Mounting to Shop Floor  
Mounting to Shop  
Floor  
Assembly  
To assemble your lathe:  
Although not required, we recommend that you  
bolt your new lathe to the floor. Because this  
is an optional step and floor materials may  
vary, machine feet are included with your lathe.  
Generally, you can either bolt your machine to  
the floor or mount it on the included machine feet.  
Whichever option you choose, we recommend  
leveling your machine with a precision level.  
1. Stand the right and left supporting legs up  
approximately 47" apart, and get them rea-  
sonably aligned, as shown in Figure 11.  
Bolting to Concrete Floors  
Lag shield anchors with lag bolts and anchor  
studs (see Figure 10) are two popular methods  
for anchoring an object to a concrete floor. We  
suggest you research the many options and meth-  
ods for mounting your machine and choose the  
best that fits your specific application.  
Figure 11. Stand legs approximately 47" apart to  
prepare for mounting the lathe.  
Anchor Studs  
The G0632 and its com-  
ponents are very heavy.  
Get lifting help or use  
power lifting equipment  
such as a fork lift to move  
heavy items.  
Lag Shield Anchor  
and Lag Screw  
2. Using the help of assistants, carefully lift the  
lathe onto the stands and align the mounting  
holes.  
Figure 10. Typical fasteners for mounting to  
concrete floors.  
Note: The headstock end of the lathe is the  
heaviest and usually requires two people for  
lifting that end.  
NOTICE  
Anchor studs are stronger and more per-  
manent alternatives to lag shield anchors;  
however, they will stick out of the floor,  
which may cause a tripping hazard if you  
decide to move your machine.

4. If you are bolting your lathe to the floor, skip  
to Step 7. Otherwise, move the tailstock, tool  
rest assembly, and headstock to one end of  
the lathe bed (see the OPERATIONS sec-  
tion beginning on Page 21 for instructions for  
moving these components).  
7. Place a level on the lathe bed and make nec-  
essary adjustments so that the bed is level  
from side-to-side and front-to-back.  
—If you are using the machine feet, adjust  
the top and bottom hex nuts on each leg to  
level the bed; then tighten the hex nuts to  
secure these adjustments.  
5. Use assistants to lift the light end of the lathe  
onto support blocks in preparation for install-  
ing the machine feet (see Figure 13).  
—If you are bolting your lathe to the floor, use  
shims under the legs to level the bed; then  
tighten the mounting fasteners.  
8. Insert the tool rest into the tool rest base and  
tighten the tool rest lock lever (see Figure  
15).

Operations  
SECTION 4: OPERATIONS  
Operation Overview  
To reduce the risk of  
serious injury when using  
this machine, read and  
understand this entire  
manual before beginning  
any operations.  
The purpose of this overview is to provide the nov-  
ice machine operator with a basic understanding  
of how the machine is used during operation, so  
the machine controls/components discussed later  
in this manual are easier to understand.  
Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is  
not intended to be an instructional guide. To learn  
more about specific operations, read this entire  
manual and seek additional training from expe-  
rienced machine operators, and do additional  
research outside of this manual by reading "how-  
to" books, trade magazines, or websites.  
Damage to your eyes and lungs could result  
from using this machine without proper pro-  
tective gear. Always wear a face shield and  
respirator when operating this machine.  
To complete a typical operation, the operator  
does the following:  
1. Examines the workpiece to make sure it is  
suitable for turning. No extreme bows, knots,  
or cracks should exist.  
Loose hair, clothing, or  
jewelry could get caught  
in machinery and cause  
serious personal injury.  
Keep these items away  
from moving parts at all  
times to reduce this risk.  
2. Prepares and trims up the workpiece with a  
bandsaw or table saw to make it roughly con-  
centric.  
3. Installs the workpiece between centers, or  
attaches it to a faceplate or chuck.  
4. Adjusts the tool rest to 18" above the workpiece  
centerline, and sets the minimum clearance  
between the workpiece and the lip of the tool  
rest to 14" gap.  
NOTICE  
If you have never used this type of machine  
or equipment before, WE STRONGLY  
RECOMMEND that you read books, review  
industry trade magazines, or get formal

To use the indexing feature, place the indexing pin  
into one of the indexing holes in the headstock as  
shown in Figure 37. This will hold the spindle and  
workpiece at the desired indexed position.  
Indexing  
Indexing on a lathe is typically used for workpiece  
layout and other auxiliary operations that require  
equal distances around the workpiece circumfer-  
ence, such as clock faces or inlays.  
By inserting the indexing pin into one of the three  
outer indexes of the Model G0632 spindle hous-  
ing and engaging one of the twelve inner indexes  
in the spindle, the workpiece can be positioned to  
one of 36 equal points (see Figure 36).

Scrapers—Typically used where access for  
other tools is limited, such as hollowing oper-  
ations. This is a flat, double-ground tool that  
comes in a variety of profiles (round nose,  
spear point, square nose, etc.) to match  
many different contours.  
Selecting Turning  
Tools  
Lathe tools come in a variety of shapes and sizes,  
and usually fall into five major categories.  
Gouges—Mainly used for rough cutting,  
detail cutting, and cove profiles. The rough  
gouge is a hollow, double-ground tool with  
a round nose, and the detail gouge is a hol-  
low, double-ground tool with either a round or  
pointed nose.  
Figure 40. Example of a round nose scraper.  
Parting Tools—Used for sizing and cut-  
ting off work. This is a flat tool with a sharp  
pointed nose that may be single- or double-  
ground.  
Figure 38. Example of a gouge.  
Skew Chisel—A very versatile tool that can  
be used for planing, squaring, V-cutting,  
beading, and parting off. The skew chisel is  
flat, double-ground with one side higher than  
the other (usually at an angle of 20°–40°).  
Figure 41. Example of a parting tool.  
Specialty Tools—These are the unique,  
special function tools to aid in hollowing, bowl  
making, cutting profiles, etc.

Spindle Turning  
To set up a spindle turning operation:  
Spindle Turning  
1. Find the center point of both ends of your  
workpiece by drawing diagonal lines from cor-  
ner to corner across the end of the workpiece  
(see Figure 43).  
Spindle turning is the operation performed when  
a workpiece is mounted between the headstock  
and the tailstock (see Figure 42).

Make sure the headstock and tailstock cen-  
ters are properly aligned before beginning  
any turning operation. See Aligning Centers  
on Page 41 for additional instructions on this  
procedure. Failure to observe this warning  
could result in the workpiece being thrown  
from the lathe resulting in serious personal  
injury.  
2. Using a wood mallet, tap the point of the spur  
center into the center of the workpiece on  
both ends, leaving an indented center mark.  
3. Using a 14" drill bit, drill a 14" deep hole at the  
center mark on the end of the workpiece to  
be mounted on the headstock spur center.  
Damage to your eyes and lungs could result  
from using this machine without proper pro-  
tective gear. Always wear a face shield and  
respirator when operating this machine.

same end of the workpiece along the diago-  
nal lines marked in Step 1.  
5. If your workpiece is over 2" x 2", cut the cor-  
ners off the workpiece length-wise to make  
turning safer and easier.  
9. Slide the tailstock toward the workpiece  
until the point of the live center touches the  
workpiece center mark, then lock the tailstock  
in this position.  
6. Drive the spur center into the end center  
mark of the workpiece with a wood mallet to  
embed it at least 4" into the workpiece (see  
Figure 44).  
10. Loosen the quill lock handle and rotate the  
tailstock handwheel to push the live center  
into the workpiece at least a 14".

Do not press the workpiece too firmly with  
the tailstock or the bearings will bind and  
overheat. Likewise, do not adjust too loosely  
or the workpiece will spin off the lathe. Use  
good reason and care, otherwise, serious  
personal injury could result.

7. With the workpiece still attached, insert the  
spur center into the headstock spindle (refer  
to Installing Headstock Center on Page 25  
for additional instructions).  
Note: Use the tool rest to support the opposite  
end of the workpiece so that the workpiece  
and spur center do not separate.

safe clearance on all sides.  
Keep the turning tool on the tool rest the  
ENTIRE time that it is in contact with the  
workpiece.  
Learn the correct techniques for each tool  
you will use. If you are unsure about how to  
use the lathe tools, read books or magazines  
about lathe techniques and seek training  
from experienced and knowledgeable lathe  
users.  
Keep the lathe tool resting on the tool  
rest the ENTIRE time that it is in contact  
with workpiece or when preparing to make  
contact between lathe tool and workpiece.  
Otherwise, the spinning workpiece could  
force the lathe tool out of your hands or  
entangle your hands with the workpiece.  
Failure to heed this warning could result in  
serious personal injury.  
Damage to your eyes and lungs could result  
from using this machine without proper pro-

Faceplate Turning  
Faceplate Turning  
NOTICE  
Only use tap screws or wood screws with  
non-tapered heads (Figure 48) to attach the  
faceplate to the workpiece. Do NOT use dry-  
wall screws or screws with tapered heads  
because they can split the faceplate, or the  
screws may snap off during operation.  
Faceplate turning is when a workpiece is mounted  
to the faceplate, which is then mounted to the  
headstock spindle. This type of turning is usually  
done with open-faced workpieces like bowls or  
plates.  
Correct  
Wrong  
Figure 48. Correct and incorrect screw types for  
mounting faceplate to workpiece.  
Figure 46. Typical faceplate turning operation.  
3. Thread and secure the faceplate onto the  
headstock spindle (refer to Headstock  
Faceplate on Page 27 for faceplate mount-  
ing instructions).  
To mount the workpiece onto the faceplate:  
1. Mark the workpiece center as in Spindle  
Turning (see Page 32).  
If wood screws cannot be placed in the workpiece,  
then the faceplate can be mounted on a backing  
block that is glued to the workpiece.  
Note: Cut off corners of the workpiece to  
make it as close to "round" as possible.  
To mount your workpiece to a backing block:  
2. Center the faceplate on the workpiece and  
attach it with wood screws that do not have  
tapered heads (see Figure 47).  
1. Make the backing block from a piece of scrap  
wood that is flat on both sides.  
2. Locate and mark the center of both the  
workpiece and backing block.  
3. Drill a 14" hole through the center of the back-  
ing block.  
4. Looking through the hole in the backing block  
to line up the center with the workpiece,  
glue and clamp the backing block to the  
workpiece.  
Note: Allow the glue to cure according to the  
manufacturer's instructions.

Outboard Turning  
Sanding/Finishing  
Outboard turning is a variation of faceplate turn-  
ing and is usually done when the stock diameter  
is greater than 12". For the size of this particular  
lathe and its minimum turning speed, we recom-  
mend a maximum diameter of 17".  
After the turning operations are complete, the  
workpiece can be sanded and finished before  
removing it from the lathe (see Figure 50).  
Figure 49 depicts the lathe setup at 90° for turn-  
ing larger workpieces. When turning in this man-  
ner, you must use a free standing tool rest (not  
included).  
Figure 50. Typical sanding operation.  
Note: Whenever sanding or finishing, move the  
tool rest holder out of the way to increase per-  
sonal safety and gain adequate working room.  
Figure 49. Headstock set at 90°.  
Sandpaper  
Wrapping the sandpa-  
per completely around  
the workpiece could pull  
your hands into the mov-  
ing workpiece and may  
cause serious injury.  
Never wrap sandpaper  
or finishing materials  
completely around the  
workpiece.  
Keep the lathe tool resting on a tool rest  
the ENTIRE time that it is in contact with  
workpiece or when preparing to make con-  
tact between lathe tool and workpiece.  
Otherwise, the spinning workpiece could  
force the lathe tool out of your hands or  
entangle your hands into the workpiece.  
Failure to heed this warning could result in  
serious personal injury.
