JET JWL-1220 Woodturning Lathe
The JET
JWL-1220
represents the
next step in
our hugely
popular mini
lathe series.
With 12”
swing and 20”
between
center
capacities
plus an array
of user-
friendly
features, the
JET JWL-1220 more than fills the void between traditional mini and full-sized lathes.
Add the JWL-1220BE 28”bed extension and the JET JWL-1220 between centers
capacity expands to nearly 50”, rivaling that of much larger and substantially more
expensive woodturning lathes.
In its standard form, (left) the JWL-1220 is a very capable lathe. Add the bed (and
stand) extension (left) and its between centers capacity rivals that of many “full-sized”
lathes!
The JET JWL-1220 is based on the tried and true JET cast iron technology for maximum
accuracy, durability and long term stability. Precisely machined components and high-
end ball bearings are used throughout the JET JWL-1220, insuring long-term accuracy
and smooth running stability.
Power and Speed
The motor is mounted below the bed
with the belt tension handles up front
for quick speed changes.
The JET JWL-1220 features a 3/4HP TEFC (totally
enclosed fan cooled) motor (115V only) that handles
the increased capacities with ease. The additional
power also maintains consistent rpm through a much
wider range of turning situations.
Finely machined and balanced step pulleys on the motor and spindle provide six rpm
settings to handle
virtually any turning or sanding task you may
encounter. Changing from one speed to another among
the available 500, 840, 1240, 1800, 2630 and 3975 rpm
settings is fast and tool free.
Release the belt tension using the front-mounted levers
and then slip the drive belt onto the new pulley
positions through the two spring-loaded access doors.
Re-tension the belt and the JET JWL-1220 is ready for
use.
Indexing
Another new feature on the JET JWL-1220 is 24-
position indexing that makes it possible to do many
fluting or drilling operations with exceptional accuracy. A specially designed, spring-
loaded button above the hand wheel can be depressed to temporarily lock the spindle for
removing thread-on accessories such as a chuck. That same button can be screwed in to
lock the spindle in any of the 24 positions, freeing your hands for other operations.
Moving the belt between the five
available pulley positions is fast,
tool-free and easy through the
spring-loaded access doors.
Standardized Versatility
The JET JWL-1220 is designed to be compatible with a
huge range of commonly used accessories. The spindle and
tailstock both accept tooling with the popular #2 Morse
taper. The spindle has equally popular 1 X 8 threads. Using
these popular sizes mean you can use tooling and
accessories you already have. They also mean finding
specialized accessories in the future will be easy and
economical.
The 1X8 spindle thread and #2
Morse taper make the JWL-
1220 compatible with a huge
range of accessories.
Included Accessories
The JET JWL-1220 comes with a full set of popular accessories and a few that are not so
common. A four-wing spur drive, quality ball bearing live center, knockout rod, 6”- tool
rest and 3”-diameter faceplate are included with the JET JWL-1220.
Not so common is the 10”-long tool rest included and
handy tool caddy that are standard equipment with the
JET JWL-1220. We also include a pair of quality safety
glasses in
place of the more common “science class”goggles. A pair
of cord wrap brackets is factory installed to provide
handy storage for the power cord when not in use.
Because many users will store the JET JWL-1220 when
not in use, we added a pair of retractable carry handles.
Located on either end, the large-diameter handles provide comfort and control when
moving the JET JWL-1220 is necessary.
The basic JWL-1220 package
includes all these accessories as
standard equipment!
Let There Be Light
The built-in task light
on a flexible arm
makes it easy to see
fine detail work.
Woodturners have added task lighting to their lathes for ages. That
often meant another cord and a less than optimum mounting that
frequently hindered work (and safety) on the lathe.
We added a built-on task light, mounted on a positionable flexible
arm to the JET JWL-1220 to eliminate these problems. The task
light draws its current from the JET JWL-1220 wiring so there is
no extra cord or socket required. The task light also has its own
on/off switch so it can be used only when needed.
Accessories
Bed Extension
Adding the JWL-
1220BE 28”bed
extension expands the
JET JWL-1220
between center
capacity to nearly
50”, exceeding that of
many full-sized 12”lathes! The 3/4hp motor allows turning long pieces without concern.
The 28” bed extension (left) bolts up easily to the JWL-1220 bed. The
mating end of the extension bed (right) has adjuster screws that make
aligning the surfaces easy and accurate.
The JWL-1220BE 28”bed extension comes with the necessary hardware for installation
but goes a step further to make this process easy. A hanging plate on the mating end of
the extension makes aligning it to the JET JWL-1220 bed much easier when a second set
of hands are not available. The mating face also has hex head socket screws pre-installed
that make aligning the JWL-1220BE 28”bed extension perfectly much easier. Even the
rubber-cushioned feet on the bed extension are adjustable to be sure your newly
configured JET JWL-1220 remains stable on irregular surfaces.
Stand
Shown with the
extension kit installed,
the JWL-1220S stand
makes a very stable
platform for the JWL-
1220 lathe.
We offer the JWL-1220S stand that makes your JET JWL-1220
a rock-solid, stand-alone machine when bench space is not
available. Built from heavy walled square steel tubing with fully
welded plate steel joining plates, the JWL-1220S is beautifully
finished to retain its good looks while resisting corrosion for
many years to come.
The JWL-1220S comes with rubber tipped adjustable leveling
feet to dampen vibrations and resist moving. The lathe mounting
plates are adjustable so spindle height can be set to between 43
and 45”above the floor for maximum comfort.
Stand Extension
The stand extension kit
includes the center post,
adjustable mount plate and
crossbar. All of the parts bolt
up to the JWL-1220S stand.
A specially designed extension kit JWL1220SE enlarges the
JWL-1220S stand to accommodate the JET JWL-1220 when
equipped with the JWL-1220E bed extension. Made from
the same materials as the JWL-1220S stand, all of the
required parts and fasteners are included to make this
conversion easy without sacrificing stability.
