Safety

DO NOT OPERATE THE LATHE UNTILL YOU HAVE BEEN INDUCTED.
As always at the Hackspace YOU are responsible for your own safety, proper machine operation and safety of those around you.

Borrowed most of the following from Mini-lathe.com & lathes.co.uk --'RepRap' Matt

  • Always wear eye protection
  • Wear short sleeve shirts, if possible, or shirts with snugly fitting cuffs if long sleeve
    • Loose sleeves can catch on rotating work and quickly pull your hand or arm into harm's way. 'RepRap' Matt has the scar to prove this point!
  • Remove wrist watches, necklaces, chains and other jewellery
  • Tie back long hair so it can't get caught in the rotating work
  • Never, ever, leave a chuck key in a chuck.
    • Get in the habit of removing the chuck key immediately after use
    • Never remove your hand from the chuck key when it is in the chuck
  • Keep your fingers clear of the rotating work and cutting tools
  • Avoid reaching over the spinning chuck
    • For filing operations, hold the tang end of the file in your left hand so that your hand and arm are not above the spinning chuck
  • After setting up any turning job, take a moment to pull the job round by hand to check that everything clears

Refresher Video

This helpful video from Cambridge Makerspace gives an overview of the features on the Warco Lathe. It does not act as a replacement for the induction but is a useful tool for jogging your memory after you've had an induction.
