Compact yet powerful, the Elite EVS lathes are a paragon of perfection. They're a perfect fit for schools, small workshops, and engineering labs, packing big features into a small footprint. These lathes are truly elite, boasting certified Meehanite® castings, an electro - magnetic brake, a three - jaw chuck, ball - bearing - mounted steady and follow rests, and CNC Style Lighting with an enclosed splash guard. They're also CSA/CUS Certified. Key features include a 4 - Position Carriage Stop, standard chuck guards for enhanced safety, a front - facing chip pan for easy chip removal, hardened and ground headstock gears to reduce vibration, an inverter drive system for infinitely variable spindle speeds, an LED RPM readout for precise turning, and a two - speed gearbox offering a wide range of spindle speeds from 40 - 365 RPM to 165 - 2000 RPM.
Using the Elite EVS lathe is straightforward. First, ensure the machine is properly set up and plugged into a 230V 3 - phase power source. The inverter drive system allows you to adjust the spindle speed according to your needs, and you can monitor the RPM precisely with the LED readout. When working, make sure to use the chuck guards for your safety. The front - facing chip pan should be emptied regularly to keep the machine clean. For maintenance, check the headstock gears periodically as they're crucial for reducing vibration. Lubricate the moving parts as recommended in the manual. Remember, this product has a Prop 65 warning, so take necessary precautions to avoid cancer and reproductive harm. Always follow the operating procedures to ensure the longevity of your lathe.
