ENGINE LATHE SAFETY

During semester 2, apprentices will learn how to use the Manual Engine Lathe while machining several projects. Prior to running an engine lathe, all safety precautions and potential hazards must be understood.

This page will serve to provide safety related information and procedures to ensure that the Manual Engine Lathe is used correctly and safely. These procedures are put in place to keep apprentices and everyone else in the facility safe and free of harm. Failure to adhere to safety procedures will result in the loss of equipment use privileges until safety training can be recompleted.
