Chucks are heavy! Get assistance when
installing or removing the chuck from the
lathe. Wear heavy duty leather boots for
foot and toe protection, and keep hands and
fingers away from all pinch points. Ignoring
this warning can lead to a severe crushing
injury or finger amputation!

Safety
Chuck Key Safety:Achuckkeyleftinthe
chuckcanbecomeadangerousprojectile
whenthespindleisstarted.Alwaysremove
thechuckkeyafterusingit.Developahabit
of not taking your hand off of a chuck key
unlessitisawayfromthemachine.
Disconnect Power: Disconnectthelathe
frompowerbeforeinstallingandremoving
the chuck or doing any maintenance or
adjustments.Accidentallathestartupcan
causesevereinjuryordeath.
Secure Clamping: Athrownworkpiece
maycausesevereinjuryorevendeath.
Whenswappingthechuckjawpositions,
keep in mind that maximum gripping
forceisattainedatfulljawandjawscrew
engagement. Ifonlyoneispartiallyengaged,
overallclampingforceisreduced.
Speed Rates: Operating the lathe where
maximumchuckspeedisexceeded,orattoo
highofaspeedforanunbalancedworkpiece,
cancausetheworkpiecetobethrownfrom
thechuck.Alwaysusetheappropriatefeed
andspeedrates.Athrownworkpiecemay
causesevereinjuryorevendeath.
Large Chucks: Largechucksareveryheavy
anddifficulttograsp,whichcanleadto
crushedfingersorhandsifmishandled.
Getassistancewheninstallingorremoving
largechuckstoreducethisrisk.Protectyour
handsandtheprecisiongroundwaysby
usingachuckcradleorpieceofplywoodover
thewaysofthelathewhenservicingchucks.
Safe Clearances: Oftenchuckjawswill
protrudepastthediameterofthechuckand
cancontactacoolantnozzle,tooling,tool
post,orsaddle.Beforestartingthespindle,
makesuretheworkpieceandchuckjaws
haveadequateclearancebyrotatingthenby
handthroughitsentirerangeofmotionby

Stopping Lathe By Hand: Stopping the
spindlebyputtingyourhandonthe
workpieceorchuckcreatesanextremerisk
ofentanglement,impact,crushing,friction,
orcuttinghazards.Neverattempttoslow

Long Stock Safety:

Do not install the chuck without having
the camlock cap screws in place or fully
tightened. Otherwise, the camlock studs may
turn with the camlocks on release, resulting in
the chuck being permanently locked onto the
spindle.

The heavy weight of a falling chuck can cause
serious injury.

is important that you are ready to
support its weight with a chuck cradle
to prevent crushing your fingers or
dropping the chuck.
