2 HP Upgrade including Reverse.

Fits:

  1. Harbor Freight 10 X 18
  2. Jet 1014 mini wood lathe. (Please share images of belt drive before you order)
  3. Grizzly T25926 (Please share images of belt drive before you order)
  4. Grizzly T25920 (Please share images of belt drive before you order

The Grizzly versions look to have a couple different belt drives.
I need confirmation photos. I do have a few options here.

 

Spindle speed results in the test Harbor Freight Lathe:
Central Machinery 10 X 18.
Estimated ratio is 1.45 motor to 1.0 spindle.
Motor at 200 Spindle at 137 RPM.
Motor at 3,500 Spindle at 2,437
That puts the spindle RPM range at:
137 to 2,435 RPMs. just turn the nob.
Please make note:
I am not a wood lathe operator but the above pulley selection seams rather fast for a wood lathe. Especially when turning large stock over 9" O.D.
It is better to use below settings to reduce strain on the system when rapidly starting and stopping a large piece of heavy wood stock.
Proper set up will be to align the motor pulley with the largest pulley on the spindle.
Pulley on motor slides to align with lathe pulley positions. (reverse for closest to motor).
The system should be built at 2.25 rotations or more on the motor to each rotation on the lathe spindle.

Set  lowest motor speed to 400 RPM. At 2.25 to 1 Spindle speed is 177 RPM.
Set highest possible motor speed to 3,500 RPM. At 2.25 to 1 Spindle speed is 1,555 RPM.
Set soft start P6 to 0
Set braking P8 to 1.
I will test this further when I get time to work on this system again.

This version would screw onto a wall or stand just above the lathe.
