SECTION 2: ASSEMBLYPre-assemblyStandAssembly of the G1067Z is straightforward. Wehave organized the assembly process into steps.Please follow them in sequence.Tools Required: Only a few common tools areneeded to assemble this machine. Specifically, a6" adjustable wrench, 12mm open end wrench,regular and Phillips head screwdriver and an8mm Hex wrench.1. Locate all four stand legs and the two endpanels. Attach an end panel to any two of thelegs using the 10-24 x 3 ⁄8'' Phillips headscrews provided (Figure 1). Repeat this stepfor the remaining end panel/legs. DO NOTfinal tighten the bolts at this time.This machine presentsserious injury hazardsto untrained users. Readthrough this entire manualto become familiarwith the controls andoperations before startingthe machine!Figure 1.Wear safety glasses duringthe entire set upprocess!2. Bolt the upper mount plate and the shortstand support to each end assembly usingthe 5 ⁄16''-18 x 3 ⁄4'' carriage bolts provided(Figure 2).Figure 2.-10- G1067Z Wood Lathe


3. Attach the long stand supports to each endassembly using the 5 ⁄16''-18 x 3 ⁄4'' carriagebolts provided (Figure 3).Installing the SwitchDo not plug cord in until you are ready totest run the lathe. See Test Run section forinstructions before initial run.1. Locate the paddle switch.2. Press the paddle switch into the cut-out onthe face of the leg as shown in Figure 5.Figure 3.4. With an assistant, set the lathe bed assemblyon the stand, orienting the front of theheadstock with the switch opening in thestand leg. Bolt the lathe bed to the standusing the eight 5 ⁄16''-18 x 1 cap screws andhex nuts supplied and tighten down (Figure4).Figure 5.3. Attach the power wires to the back of thepaddle switch as shown in Figure 6. Note—The green ground wire MUST be securelyattached to the sheet metal leg.Figure 4.5. At this point tighten down all the bolts on thestand. It is a good idea to do this with thelathe set in place where it will be used.Figure 6.G1067Z Wood Lathe -11-


Note—The paddle switch is equipped with aremovable safety key (Figure 7). When the latheis not be in use, the safety key should beremoved from the paddle switch and placed in asafe location. The lathe cannot be turned onwhen the safety key is removed from the paddleswitch.Figure 8.Figure 7.TailstockTool RestThread the handle onto the tailstock handwheeland tighten down the jam nut (Figure 9).The tool rest is equipped with a cam-actionclamping system to secure it to the lathe bed. Toinstall the tool rest assembly:1. Remove the large hex nut and lock platefrom the bottom of the tool rest assembly.2. Set the tool rest assembly on the lathe bedwith the clamp stud between the bed slot.3. Set the tool rest lock handle so it is pointingdown. Re-install the lock plate and threadthe hex nut back onto the stud until it bottomsout.4. Lift the lock handle approximately 90˚ andtighten the hex nut 1 ⁄2 to 2 ⁄3 of a turn more.Figure 9.5. Turn the tool rest lock handle until it locks thetool rest down onto the bed. You may needto adjust the hex nut in small increments tofine tune how the tool rest assembly locksdown onto the bed.-12- G1067Z Wood Lathe


Spur CenterFace PlateThe G1067Z is supplied with a #2 Morse taperspur center for use when spindle turning. Thespur center is used in conjunction with the tailstocklive center. Install the spur center by insertinginto the hole in the inboard spindle (Figure10).The G1067Z is supplied with a 6'' face plate.Thefaceplate is used for bowl and plate turning.Install the face plate by threading the face plateonto the inboard spindle. Use the indexing pin tohold the spindle from rotating while tighteningdown or removing the face plate (Figure 12). DONOT use the face plate in conjunction with thespur center. Mount your workpiece to the faceplate using the mounting holes bored into theface plate.Figure 10.To remove: insert the knockout bar provided intothe outboard spindle and tap with the palm ofyour hand while carefully holding onto the spurcenter with your other hand (Figure 11).Figure 12.Knockout barThe contact area between the workpieceand the face plate must be flush with oneanother. Failure to do this could result inthe face plate distorting or breaking when itis screwed to the workpiece, or during use,causing injury or death.Figure 11.The joints of glued-up workpieces shouldbe high quality to prevent them from breakingunder the extreme forces of lathe turning.Consult in-depth trade manuals andinstructional books for correct techniqueswhen gluing up a workpiece from multiplepieces. If a joint fails during a lathe turningoperation, serious injury or death couldoccur.G1067Z Wood Lathe -13-

Live CenterSpeed SelectorA #2 Morse taper live center is supplied with thelathe and is preinstalled from the factory (Figure19). To remove it:1. Turn the handwheel counter-clockwise untilthe tailstock barrel bottoms out in the tailstockhousing. This causes the center to beforced out of the barrel.2. Reinstall by turning the handwheel clockwiseuntil the tailstock barrel sticks out of the tailstockhousing about 1 ⁄2''. Insert the live centerback into the tailstock barrel.(1) The tailstock barrel lock handle (Figure19) must always be locked down while thelathe is in use. The workpiece can bethrown from the lathe if this step is notobserved. (2) The tailstock barrel shouldnot protrude from the tailstock housingmore than 2''. Serious personal injury mayoccur.The lathe must be running to changespeeds. Before turning the lathe on, readSafety Rules and Test Run in theOperations Section.The variable speed selector has six position settings.These settings provide speeds of 500, 800,1200, 1600, 2000 and 2700 RPM for varied applications.To change speeds:1. Turn the lathe on.2. Pull the speed selector lever straight backaway from the machine so the detent springcompresses (Figure 20).3. Slowly shift the lever to the desired speed.4. Make sure the lever is set in the detent forthe desired speed. The lever should clickinto position.Remember to choose the correct speed foryour particular turning project. As a generalrule, the larger the workpiece diameter,the slower the speed. Always start on slowspeed.Lock handleSpeed selectorFigure 19.Figure 20.-16- G1067Z Wood Lathe


SECTION 4: OPERATIONSTest RunTool RestOnce the assembly is complete and the adjustmentsare done to your satisfaction, you areready to test the machine.Turn on the power supply at the mainpanel. Press the START button. Make surethat your finger is poised on the STOP button,just in case there’s a problem. TheWood Lathe should run smoothly, with littleor no vibration or rubbing noises.Strange or unnatural noises should beinvestigated and corrected before operatingthe machine further.Adjust the tool rest as close to the workpiece aspossible without actually coming in contact withthe workpiece. Test by hand turning the workpiecebefore turning lathe on. Ensure that thelathe chisel is fully supported by the tool rest.Support the lathe chisel on the tool rest with onehand, while controlling the chisel with the otherhand (Figure 21). For outboard turning, it may bedesirable to use a free standing tool rest.DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjustthe machine while it is running. Wait untilthe machine is turned off, unplugged andall working parts have come to a restbefore you do anything! Serious personalinjury may occur.If noises occur that cannot be found by visualinspection, feel free to contact our service departmentfor help.Figure 21.If the lathe runs smoothly, try mounting apiece of turning stock. If a problem exists,stop the machine and review all the adjustments.Call for assistance, if needed.G1067Z Wood Lathe -17-


Spindle TurningBefore a workpiece is mounted into the lathe, thepoints of the installed spur center and the livecenter must align perfectly with one another(Figure 22). View the alignment from above thelathe and from the side.Spur CenterLive CenterFigure 23.4. Once the spur center is firmly attached to theworkpiece, insert the spur center (with theattached workpiece) into the headstock spindle.5. While supporting the workpiece, slide thetailstock close to the end of the workpieceand lock it into place.Figure 22.To mount a workpiece between centers:1. Locate the center point on both ends of theworkpiece by carefully drawing diagonallines from corner to corner. The point of intersectionis the center of the work. Find thecenter of round wood stock by using a centerfinder instrument.2. When turning stock with a diameter greaterthan 2", remove the corner length edges witha hand plane or similar operation. DO NOTattempt to “round” square stock in the lathe.Serious personal injury many occur.3. Hold the spindle vertically and support it on asolid surface. Line up the spur center withthe center of the workpiece. Drive the spurcenter into the stock about 1 ⁄4" using a deadblow hammer. Be careful not to split theworkpiece. See Figure 23. Wood with splitsalong the grain may fly off during the operation.Note—With dense wood, drill a hole atthe center and score lines with a saw bladefor the spur center.Make sure the live center in the tailstocklines up with the spur center in the headstockbefore turning anything betweencenters. Failure to observe this step couldresult in the workpiece being thrown fromthe lathe. Serious personal injury mayoccur.6. Line up the live center with the workpiececenter. Turn the handwheel to press thepoint of the live center into the workpiece.Note—With dense wood, drill a hole at thecenter and score lines with a saw blade forthe live center.Do not press too firmly or the bearings willbind and overheat. Likewise, do not adjusttoo loosely or the workpiece will spin offthe lathe. Use good judgement. Seriouspersonal injury could result if care is nottaken.7. Lock the tailstock in place.-18- G1067Z Wood Lathe


Outboard TurningIndexingOutboard turning is usually done when stockdiameter is greater than 12''. For the size of thisparticular lathe and its minimum turning speed,we recommend a maximum diameter of 17'' anda maximum thickness of 2''.Figure 24 depicts the lathe setup at 90˚ for turninga bowl using the tool rest extension supplied.Figure 25 depicts the lathe setup at 180˚ for turninga bowl using a free standing tool rest (not supplied).The headstock spindle indexes every 15˚ byinserting the indexing pin into one of the holes inthe headstock. Indexing is desirable when lockingthe workpiece in position such as when routingflutes. The spindle is drilled every 30˚ and theheadstock housing has two holes that are drilled15˚ apart. To index the spindle:1. Insert the pin through the hole in the housing.2. Rotate the spindle by hand until the pindrops into a hole in the spindle (Figure 26).Never start the lathe with the indexing pininserted in the indexing hole. Serious personalinjury may occur.Indexing pinFigure 24. Headstock set at 90˚.Figure 26. Spindle indexing.Figure 25. Headstock set at 180˚.G1067Z Wood Lathe -19-


SECTION 5: MAINTENANCEGeneralLubricationBefore performing any type of inspectionor maintenance work on this lathe, be surethat the power cord is unplugged and allmoving parts have come to a completestop. Serious personal injury may occur.Make a habit of inspecting your lathe each timeyou use it. Check for the following conditions andrepair or replace when necessary.The G1067Z Lathe is equipped with a split pulleysystem which allows the speed of the lathe to bechanged while its running. To assure the smoothoperation of this pulley system, we recommendthe main spindle and motor spindle be greasedoccasionally. To do this, remove the pulley cover,vacuum out any saw dust and apply grease to thespots indicated in Figure 27. Disposable acidbrushes work best to get into these hard to reachplaces.1. Loose mounting bolts.2. Worn switch.3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.4. Any other condition that could hamper thesafe operation of this machine.BedThe bed and other non-painted surfaces on theModel G1067Z should be protected against rustand pitting. Wiping the lathe clean after every useensures that moisture from wood dust isn’tallowed to trap moisture against bare metal surfaces.Figure 27.Shielded and pre-lubricated ball bearings requireno lubrication for the life of the bearings. In a continuous-useenvironment, expect the bearings tolast for several years. With intermittent use, bearingscan be expected to last much longer. Allbearings are common sizes and can be easilyobtained.-20- G1067Z Wood Lathe
