Hi Katlee469 here's what i have for you

The first thing to do is measure the dowel at the workbench. Lay the dowel next to the ruler. Need to leave 2 1/2" on each end. And put a groove at the 12" mark. Put on your goggles or its curtains for you.

Get a new wood dowel from the left side of the machine, standing upright, and insert it into the lathe.

Lets start at 2 ½" and work right till you stop at 11 ½".

To get the right setting for depth, click on the knob on the right 3 times, and click on the power to start the lathe.

Repeat this till you get to the 11 ½ mark on the ruler.

Then move over to 12" mark on the ruler and click on the depth knob 1 click to put on the groove, hit the power button.

If it is correct Nancy will say "that looks perfect.”
