Cast-Iron Construction for Stability and Vibration-Free Operation
Designed to take on projects both large and small with its 16-inch swing and 42-inch capacity, the JWL-1642EVS-2 has a heavy-duty, cast-iron bed to ensure long-term accuracy and smooth operation. The leg sets are also made of sturdy cast iron and feature widely spaced feet with adjustable pads to maintain a solid, secure stance, even on uneven surfaces. The legs make the JWL-1642EVS-2's spindle (center) height a comfortable 44.5 inches above the floor.

10-Degree Spindle Increments and Easy-Release Headstock for Versatility
The JWL-1642EVS-2's cast-iron headstock provides rigid support for the motor and high-strength spindle. Thanks to built-in internal indexing, the large-diameter spindle can be locked in 36 positions, which translates to 10-degree increments for drilling, fluting, grooving, and other operations. To increase versatility, the headstock can be moved to any position along the bed by simply releasing its lock with an easy-to-use handle.
For added convenience, the push-button spindle lock on the front of the spindle gives you a simple, tool-free way to lock the spindle for installing or removing the faceplate, chuck, or other screw-down accessories.
Powerful, Fan-Cooled Motor for Long-Term, Robust Performance
JWL-1642EVS-2 is equipped with a two-horsepower, three-phase, 230-volt motor that's fan cooled to resist dust contamination. Additionally, dial-operated infinite-speed controls on the front of the headstock allow you to match the ideal speed to the job. At the same time, a large digital LED makes it easy to monitor the spindle speed, and a toggle switch on the front panel lets you choose forward or reverse spindle directions.
This lathe also uses a precision-made stepped pulley system that creates distinct low (zero to 1,200 RPM) and high (up to 3,200 RPM) speed ranges. The pulleys are driven by a serpentine-style belt that is designed for smooth power transmission, low slippage, and dramatically reduced heat generation when compared to a V-belt.
Easy-to-Lock, Large Tailstock for Stability
The large tailstock has the mass and wide base needed for stability, and it slides to the end of the bedway for easy outboard turning. The large ram has a full, four-inch travel, which is operated by an easy-to-turn, five-inch-diameter hand wheel that's fitted with a spinner handle. Additionally, the ram has the popular #2 Morse taper and a 3/8-inch diameter through hole, which is convenient for drilling lamp bases. And like the tool rest base, a large handle makes it easy to lock the tailstock securely in place.
The JWL-1642EVS-2 comes with a five-year warranty.
About JET

Since then, JET has sold everything from snowmobiles to transmitter radios, forklifts, and nylon stockings. By the early 1970s, however, metalworking had become the base of JET's business, and by the 1980s, the company had expanded into the realm of woodworking. Today JET offers a wide range of popular woodworking tools that are backed with best-in-class features and excellent service.
