Description
Number of Pages: 9
This is a reproduction, not a photocopy, of an original Walker Turner L951, L952, L1152 Wood Lathes Instructions and Parts Manual . This manual contains information on machine specifications, setting up, motor installation, lubrication, adjustments, and explosive diagrams of the parts with descriptions. It also contains a catalog page the shows some of the original accessories.
I included the explosive view parts diagrams for the Delta Rockwell 12″ variable speed lathe models 46-500 and 46-510, because they are very similar to the Walker Turner version.
The parts section doesn’t specifically mention the SVL52 polishing lathe, but it is basically the same thing. We actually own a SVL52 in our shop.
The manual above may help you operate and maintain your wood lathe, but if you would like to learn more about proper woodturning techniques and using your lathe, I highly recommend you check out this book here: The Wood Lathe - The Missing Shop Manual. Even if you’ve been woodturning for years, you’ll wish this was the manual that originally came with your new lathe. This no-nonsense book focuses on user-friendly solutions and instructions on wood lathe usage.
Overview
I have collected this information for many years and have found the information they contain to be priceless in using and setting up the machines properly. I believe this manual will be a valuable resource of knowledge that will provide a lot of helpful information that is often hard to find. My manuals are not photocopies. I maintain a high standard of quality in my reproductions. Most of the manuals I reproduce look better than their originals. I have professionally digitally edited every page, and removed stains, wrinkles and handwriting. All of the manuals are printed on thick white paper to withstand shop wear and tear; they are then comb bound with heavy cover pages so they lie flat on the workbench.
