Wood Lathe make adjusting belt tension quick and easy.  
The JWL-1220VS uses a sophisticated electronic speed  
control along with finely machined six step pulleys that  
together provide total spindle RPM control within a huge  
overall speed range of 200 to 4300 RPM! The electronic  
speed control dial has 5 numerical dial settings which allow  
making very specific RPM settings easy. Pulley position #1  
is the largest diameter step on the spindle shaft, #6 the  
smallest diameter step. Using the chart above (included on  
the machine) one can set the speed as desired.  
The variable speed controls are  
powerful but simple to operate.  
Changing the belt position on the JET JWL-1220VS Wood  
Lathe step pulleys is fast and tool-free. Release the belt  
tension using the front-mounted levers and then slip the  
 
Bed Extension  
Adding the JWL-1220BE 28” (#708377) bed extension  
expands the JET JWL-1220VS between center capacity to  
nearly 50“, exceeding that of many full-sized 12” lathes! The  
3/4hp motor has the power needed to handle those long  
pieces.  
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-1220VS bed  
much easier when a second set of hands are not available.  
The mating face also has hex head socket screws pre-  
The 28” bed extension and  
3/4HP motor allow turning  
pieces up to 50” long, a capacity  
rivaling far more expensive  
machines.  
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-1220VS is stable on irregular surfaces.  
Stand  
We offer the JWL-1220S  
(#708378) Adjustable Stand  
that makes your JET JWL-  
1220VS a rock-solid, stand-  
alone machine. Built from

tubing with fully welded  
plate steel joining plates, the  
The stand features wide-stance, rubber-tipped feet (left) that adjust for  
irregular floors. The mounting plates (right) are adjustable up and down to  
fine-tune spindle height for comfort.  
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  
A specially designed extension kit JWL1220SE (#708379)  
enlarges the JWL-1220S adjustable stand to accommodate the  
JET JWL-1220VS when equipped with the JWL-1220SE 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.
