examples of these chemicals are:
•
•
•
Lead from lead based paint.
Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.
Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk of exposure varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as face or dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic
particles
18. Do not operate this lathe while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.
19. Keep tools sharp and clean for safe and best performance. Dull tools can grab in the work and be
jerked from the operators hands causing serious injury.

Grounding Instructions
This tool must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric
shock.
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 plugged into a matching outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. 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.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only three wire extension cords
that have three-prong grounding plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
115 Volt Operation (Model JWL-1642EVS only)
As received from the factory, your JWL-1642EVS is ready to run at 115-volt operation. This lathe is
intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet and a plug that looks the one illustrated in Figure A. A
temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter as illustrated in Figure B, may be used to connect this
plug to a two-pole receptacle, as shown in Figure B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adapter should only be used until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified
electrician. This adapter is not applicable in Canada. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or tab, extending
from the adapter, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box, as
shown in Figure B.
The use of an extension cord is not recommended. However, if you must use one make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. Be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your machine
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in the line voltage resulting in power loss and overheating.
The following table shows the correct size to use depending on the cord length needed and the
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. Remember, the smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.

230-Volt Operation (Model JWL-1642EVS-2 only)
1. A plug with a UL/CSA listing suitable for 230V operation (Figure D) must be connected to the
power cord. Contact your local authorized WMH Tool Group service center or qualified electrician
for proper procedures to install the plug. The lathe must comply with all local and national codes
after the 230V plug is installed.
2. The lathe with a 230V plug should only be connected to an outlet having the same configuration
(Figure D). There is no adapter available nor should one be used with the 230V plug.
In all cases (115 or 230 volts), make certain the receptacle in question is properly
grounded. If you are not sure, have a registered electrician check the receptacle.
Note: The JWL-1642EVS-2 lathe requires a 230-volt single-phase input. It is equipped with a power
inverter, located between the power cord and the drive motor. The inverter takes the 230V 1-phase input
from the power cord and converts it to the 230V 3-phase output required by the drive motor.

Speed Change
Large Domed Scraper — used to reduce ridges
on the interior of bowls, round edges of bowls,
etc, see Figure 12.
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source!
Parting Tool — used to cut directly into the
material, or to make a cut off. Also used for
scraping and to set diameters, see Figure 12.
2. Loosen the locking handle (A, Fig. 11).
3. Lift up on the tensioning handle (B, Fig. 11)
to remove tension from the poly v-belt. You
can now position the belt in the desired
speed range. It is pictured in the low speed
pulley range. Note: The “High” speed range
(120-3200) provides maximum speed,
where as the “Low” speed range (50-1200)
will provide maximum torque.
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.
4. Lower the tensioning handle so that the
weight of the motor provides the needed
tension and tighten the locking handle.
AC Inverter does not require any programming.
It is pre-programmed from the factory. The
buttons and knob on the face of inverter should
not be changed. Use only controls on the front of
headstock. Refer to Inverter manual.
Lathe Tools
If possible, select only high quality, high-speed
steel turning tools with long handles. 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 your JET
distributor for a wide variety of JET woodturning
tools.
Roughing Gouge — used for rapidly cutting
raw wood into round stock, see Figure 12.
Deep Fluted Bowl Gouge — used for turning
bowls and plates, see Figure 12.
Spindle Gouge — used for turning beads,
coves and other details, see Figure 12.
Spear — fine scraping and delicate operations,
such as the forming of beads, parallel grooves
and shallow vees, etc, see Figure 12.
Skew — used to make vees, beads, etc., see
Figure 12.
Square Scraper — used for diameter scraping
and featureless scraping, etc, see Figure 12.

Mounting Workpiece Between Centers
Spindle turning takes place between the centers
of the lathe. It requires a spur center in the
headstock and a live center in the tailstock.
1. With a ruler locate and mark the center on
each end by going corner to corner, see
Figure 13. Accuracy is not critical on full
rounds but extremely important on stock
where square sections are to remain. Put a
dimple in each end of the stock with an awl,
or nail.
2. Extremely hard woods may require kerfs cut
into the spur drive end of stock, see Figure
13. You may need to drive the spur center
into the stock with a wood mallet. Note:
Never drive stock onto spur while it is
mounted in the lathe spindle.
3. Install workpiece by inserting the attached
spur center into the spindle taper on the
headstock.
4. Bring tailstock into position, lock it to the
bed, and advance quill with the handwheel
in order to seat the live center into the
workpiece. Lock the quill in place. Make
sure the live center point is centered on your
mark.
5. Move tool rest into position. It should be
parallel to workpiece, approximately at the
centerline and approximately 1/8" from the
closest part of the workpiece. Lock tool rest
body and tool rest in place.
6. Rotate workpiece by hand to check for
proper clearance from tool rest. Note: You
may want to trim off the corners of a square
workpiece to make turning a little easier, see
Figure 14.
7. Start lathe at the lowest speed and bring it
up to the appropriate RPM for the size of
stock, see Figure 7 page 10.
The position of the tool rest can be varied to suit
the work and operator. After you become
experienced with setting the tool rest changing
the position will become second nature for the
workpiece and comfort of the user.

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 to remove ends if required. Larger stock
should have the corners removed to produce an
octagon making the piece easier to rough down
to a cylinder, see Figure 14.
Roughing Out
1. Use a large roughing gouge and begin
cutting about 2” from the tailstock end of the
workpiece. Place the tool on tool rest with
heel of the tool on surface to be cut.
2. Slowly and gently, raise tool handle until
cutting edge comes into contact with the
workpiece. Work to the right towards the end
of the workpiece. You never want to start at
the end of a workpiece.
3. Now continue to work the rest of the
workpiece. Roll the flute (hollowed-out
portion) of the tool in the direction of the cut;
see Figure 15. Make long sweeping cuts in a
continuous motion to rough the piece down
to a cylinder. Keep as much of the bevel of
tool as possible in contact with workpiece to
ensure control and avoid catches. Note:
Always cut downhill, or from large diameter
to small diameter. Always work toward the
end of a workpiece, never start cutting at the
end.
4. Once the workpiece is roughed down to a
cylinder, smooth it with a large skew. Place
the cutting point near the center of the chisel
and high on the workpiece, see Figure 16.
Touching one of the points of the skew to
the spinning workpiece may cause a catch
and ruin the workpiece.
5. Add details to the workpiece with the skew,
spindle gouge, etc.

Coves
the handle to make the cut to the
appropriate depth.
1. Use a spindle gouge. With the flute of the
tool at 90 degrees to the workpiece, touch
the center of the cutting edge to the
workpiece and roll in towards the bottom of
the cove. Stop at the bottom; attempting to
go up the opposite side may cause the tool
to catch.
2. Repeat for the 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 the direction of the cut.
2. Move tool over the desired width of cove.
3. With the flute facing the opposite direction,
repeat step 1 for other side of cove. Stop at
the bottom of the cut; see Figure 18.
“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 skew to the right half of
the desired width of your cut, see Figure 19.
4. With the bevel parallel to the right side of the
cut, raise the handle and push the tool in to
the desired depth.
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.
Parting
1. Place the parting tool on the tool rest and
raise the handle until it starts to cut and
continue to cut to the desired depth.
2. If the cut is deep a clearance cut should be
made along side the first cut to prevent the
tool tip from burning.
Beads
1. Place the parting tool on the tool rest and
move it forward to allow the full bevel of the
tool to contact the workpiece. Gently raise

Sanding and Finishing
Leaving clean cuts will reduce the amount of
sanding required. Adjust the lathe to a finishing
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. 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 the lathe off and use a brush, or
cloth to apply the finish. Remove excess finish
before restarting lathe. Allow it to dry and sand
again with 320 or 400 grit sandpaper. Apply
additional coats of finish and buff.
Face Plate and Bowl Turning
Faceplate turning is normally done on the
inboard side of the headstock over the bed; see
Figure 20.You must move the headstock to the
end of the lathe bed for larger workpieces.
Mounting Stock
Use of a faceplate is the most common method
for holding a block of wood for turning bowls,
and plates, see Figure 21.
1. Select stock at least 1/8" to 1/4" larger than
the dimension on the desired finished
workpiece.
2. True one surface of workpiece for mounting
against the faceplate. It is best to leave extra
stock against the faceplate that can be cut
off when the workpiece is finished.
3. Using the faceplate as a template, mark the
location of the mounting holes, and drill pilot
holes of the appropriate size. If the mounting
screws on the faceplate interfere with the
workpiece, a waste block can be mounted to
the faceplate and then the waste block
mounted to the workpiece by gluing or
screwing, see Figure 21.
4. Both waste block and workpiece should
have good flat surfaces.
5. Push in the spindle lock and thread
faceplate and workpiece onto spindle.
Tighten setscrews in faceplate when secure.

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.
Face Plate or Chuck
While faceplates are the simplest, most reliable
method of holding a block of wood for turning,
chucks can also be used. 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
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 left by a bowl gouge.
scroll chucks with
a
variety of jaws to
accommodate different size tenons. Most also
come with a screw chuck as well.
Wood Selection
Firewood is the cheapest, most widely available
stock to use while learning to turn bowls.
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.
Checks and Cracks
Green wood will check and crack. For best
results, leave logs in as long lengths 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.
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 do. It also varies with the time
of year the tree was cut and how the logs are
stored.
Tools for Bowl Turning
The deep fluted bowl gouge is the most
essential and versatile tool for most bowl and
faceplate style turning. The bowl gouge is
heavier and easier to control than other types of

To Shape the Outside of a Bowl
11. Finish turning the outside of the bowl with a
1/2" or 3/8" bowl gouge. Leave additional
material at the base of the bowl for support
while turning the interior. This will be
removed later.
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 workpiece.
2. Drive the spur center into the top of
workpiece with a wood mallet.
3. Slip the spur center into the headstock taper
and bring the tailstock, with a live center,
into position. Lock the tailstock to the bed
and advance the spindle in order to seat the
cup center into the workpiece, see Figure
22. Tighten the quill lock.
4. Position the tool support just below the
centerline and about 1/4" from the
workpiece. Note: For larger outboard
turning, an optional outboard turning stand is
used to place the tool support, see your JET
distributor.
5. Turn the workpiece by hand to ensure
proper clearance.
6. Start the lathe at the lowest speed and bring
it up to the maximum safe speed for the size
of work to be turned, see Figure 7 on page
10. If the machine starts to vibrate, lower the
speed until the vibration stops.
7. Rough out the outside of the bowl with the
1/2" deep fluted bowl gouge, holding the tool
firmly against your hip. For best control, use
your whole body to move the gouge through
the workpiece.
8. As the bowl takes shape, work on the
bottom (tailstock end) to accommodate
attaching a faceplate, see Figure 22.
9. Turn a short tenon (about 1/8" long) the size
of the hole in the faceplate, see Figure
22.This will allow centering the workpiece
when the faceplate is attached. Note: If you
plan to use a chuck, turn a tenon of
appropriate length and diameter to fit your
chuck.
10. Stop the lathe, remove the workpiece and
attach the faceplate, or chuck.

To Shape the Interior of a Bowl
High speed can build friction while sanding
and cause heat check in some woods.
1. Stop the lathe and move the tailstock away.
Remove the center from the tailstock to
prevent bumping it with your elbow.
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.
2. Adjust the tool support in front of the bowl
just below the centerline, at a right angle to
the lathe bed.
3. Rotate the workpiece by hand to check the
clearance.
4. Face off the top of the bowl by making a
light shearing cut across the workpiece, from
rim to center.
3. Remove the sanding dust with tack rags, or
compressed air and, with the lathe turned
off, apply the first coat of finish. Let it stand
for several minutes then wipe off the excess.
Allow it to dry before sanding again with 320
or 400 grit sandpaper.
5. Place the 1/2" bowl gouge on the tool rest at
the center of the workpiece with the flute
facing the top of the bowl. The tool handle
should be level and pointed toward four
o'clock, see Figure 23.
4. Turn lathe back on and make a separation
cut through the base. Stop at about 3" and
use a small fine tooth saw to separate the
bowl from the waste.
6. Use left hand to control the cutting edge of
the gouge, while the right hand swings the
tool handle around toward your body, see
Figure 23. The flute should start out facing
the top of the 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
rest into the workpiece 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 workpiece.
Should there be a few small ridges left, a
light cut with a large domed scraper can
even out the surface.
5. Apply additional finish coats and allow them
to dry before buffing.
7. Develop the wall thickness at the rim and
maintain it as you work deeper into the bowl.
When the interior is finished, move the tool
support to the exterior to re-define the
bottom of the bowl. A general rule of thumb:
the base should be approximately 1/3 the
overall diameter of the bowl.
8. Work the tight area around the faceplate or
chuck with 1/4" bowl gouge.
Sanding and Finishing a Bowl
1. Remove the tool rest and adjust the lathe
speed to the appropriate finishing speed.

Adjusting the Clamping Mechanism
The clamps are pre-set at the factory and should
not need any adjustment. However, if
adjustment is needed remove the stud (A, Fig.
24). Loosen the locking handle and slide the
headstock, tailstock or tool rest to the edge of
the bed and slightly turn the hex nut (B, Fig. 24).
Slide back into position and test the handle to
make sure it securely locks.
Changing the Belt and Bearings
Changing the belt and bearings can be a difficult
task, and should be performed by a JET
authorized repair station. Remove the headstock
and take it into a repair station for servicing.
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source!
2. Loosen the locking handle (C, Fig. 25), and
lift up on the tensioning handle (D, Fig. 25)
to remove tension from the poly v-belt.
3. Open the door (E, Fig. 25), and remove the
belt (F, Fig. 25) from the lower pulley.
4. Loosen the two setscrews in the handwheel
(G, Fig. 25) and remove.
5. Loosen the socket head cap screw enough
to unthread the clamping nut (H, Fig. 25).
6. Loosen the two setscrews in the right hand
pulley (I, Fig. 25).
7. Loosen the setscrew in the collar (J, Fig. 26)
8. Use a wood dowel, or aluminum stock to
knock the spindle towards the tailstock. Use
a material that is softer than the spindle so
you do not mushroom the end of the spindle.
Only go far enough to remove the belt from
the spindle; see Figure 26.
9. Now you can replace the belt or bearings.
There are two bearings, #5 and 10, that can
be seen in “Headstock Assembly” on page
24.
10. To reassemble, reverse the procedure.
Note: When reinstalling the clamping nut,
thread it onto the spindle until its snug. Then
back it off slightly and tighten the socket
head cap screw.

Indexer Positions
How to use the chart
A diagram of the indexer is shown at right, as viewed
from the tailstock end of the Lathe. Points A, B and C
are the holes in the head casting. The holes in the
spindle collar may be considered as numbered 1
through 12.
Example: You wish to rout 9 flutes on your spindle
blank. Locate the “9” in the “No. of Flutes” column;
each flute angle will be 40°. The index pin should first
be inserted into hole combination “A-1”. Make your
first flute at this position. Back off the index pin and
rotate the spindle until the index pin can be inserted
into hole combination “A-5”; this will be followed by
“A-9”. Succeeding flutes will be made with the index
pin in the B position: “B-3”, “B-7” and so on.
