PART O. 1340198(013) 46-896 SAFETY SHIELD FOR 12, 14 AD 16 WOOD LATHES ITRODUCTIO The 46-896 Safety Shield (Fig.1) is an accessory for Delta 12 and 16 wood lathes. The shield can also be retrofitted to earlier 12 to 16 heavy duty wood lathes. Fig. 1 ASSEMBLY 12 WOOD LATHES - On current 12 lathe models, four holes have been drilled in the rear of the lathe to mount the safety shield support arm. OTE: To mount the safety shield to an earlier model 12 wood lathe, drill four holes in the rear of the lathe. The dimensions for drilling mounting holes in an earlier model 12 standard-duty wood lathe are shown in Fig. 2. The dimensions for drilling mounting holes in an earlier model 12 heavyduty wood lathe are shown in Fig. 3. 16 WOOD LATHES - On current 16 wood lathes, four holes have been drilled in the rear of the lathe to mount the safety shield support arm. Fig. 2 IMPORTAT: The following assembly instructions are illustrated with the model 46-745 16 Wood Lathe. Assembly of the safety shield on other Delta 16 and 12 wood lathes is identical. Fig. 3
A 1. Attach the mounting bracket (A) Fig. 4, to the rear of the lathe using four (three of which are shown) 1 hex head cap screws (B). Place a lockwasher on the screw first, then a flat washer. Secure it with a hex nut. B Fig. 4 A 2. Attach the two adjustable brackets (C) Fig. 5, to the mounting bracket (A), with four 1 hex head cap screws (D). Place a lockwasher on the screw first, then a flat washer. Secure it with a hex nut. OTE: Since some adjustment will be made later, tighten the nuts slightly to the screws. D C D Fig. 5 C 3. Attach the two clamping brackets (E) Fig. 6, to adjustable brackets (C), using four 2-3/4 hex head cap screws (F) and hex nuts (G). E G F Fig. 6 2
H 4. Insert support arm (H) Fig. 7, into clamping brackets (E) and tighten hardware just enough to hold support arm in position. 5. The support arm (H) Fig. 7 should be positioned to its approximate maximum height in set-up. (Information regarding the adjustment of height of the support arm can be found on page 4 of this instruction sheet). After the support arm is in position, tighten all mounting hardware that attaches the mounting brackets and support arm to the lathe. K Fig. 7 L E 6. Place the horizontal bar (L) Fig. 8, of shield assembly into channel (J) Fig. 9, of support arm (H). Fig. 8 7. Make certain the bottom of wire backscreen () Fig. 10, rests inside bracket (P) of support arm (H). P Fig. 9 J H 8. Insert two 1-1/2 hex head screws (M) Fig. 9, into the channel (J) of the support arm (H) and tighten. OTE: The entire safety shield assembly can be shifted by loosening the two screws (M) Fig. 9, and sliding the safety shield assembly. Tighten two screws after all adjustments. M Fig. 10 3
T R 9. Insert the ends on the top of backscreen () Fig. 11, into the two pre-drilled holes in the ends of the safety shield bracket (T) and fasten in place with two push nuts (R), one of which is shown. Fig. 11 10. The safety shield () Fig. 12, is equipped with two locking levers (S) (one of which is shown). When the safety shield () Fig. 12, is in the down position, the locking levers (S) will engage the safety shield () and lock it in place. To raise the safety shield () Fig. 12, the locking levers (S) must be released manually by gently pushing up on locking levers (S) and raising the safety shield (). Fig. 13, illustrates the safety shield () in the raised position. Fig. 12 S Fig. 13 11. Position the horizontal bar (L) Fig. 14, anywhere in channel (J) of support arm (H) by loosening two screws (M) and sliding safety shield to the desired position. OTE: When moving the bar, hold it firmly to prevent binding. M J L 12. Depending on the size of the work, the support arm (H) Fig. 14 can be adjusted up or down. For maximum operator protection, adjust the support arm (H) Fig. 14, so that the bottom of the safety shield () Fig. 12, when locked, is positioned a maximum of 1-1/2 to 2 above the tool rest (V).
