Number of Pages: 7 This is a reproduction, not a photocopy, of an original Yates-American J-170 12" Variable Speed Wood Lathe Instructions and Parts Manual. Brodhead-Garrett bought the rights in the 1960s to sell this lathe for vocational purposes, but Yates-American still manufactured the lathe. This manual contains information on electrical wiring diagrams, maintenance, adjustments, operations, and controls. It also contains exploded view diagrams of all the parts for the lathe. [woodlathebook] 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.
