What can I turn on this lathe?

Bowls up to 14 inches in diameter, spindles up to 40 inches long, pens, handles and similar small projects. The four speeds let you match the RPM to the blank size.

How do I change the speed?

You move the drive belt between pulley steps by hand. There are four fixed speeds: 1040, 1480, 2130 and 2980 RPM. There is no electronic variable-speed dial.

Is 400W enough power?

It is fine for hobby turning of bowls, spindles and pens with sharp tools and light cuts. Large or out-of-balance green blanks will bog it down more than a bigger motor would.

Does it need to be bolted down?

It is a benchtop machine, so it should sit on a level, sturdy surface. Secure the workpiece and follow the manual; bolting to a solid bench helps with large, unbalanced blanks.

Our take on the LEMBERI 400W 4-Speed Benchtop Wood Lathe

The LEMBERI is a 400W (3.5A) benchtop wood lathe with a 40-inch distance between centers and a 14-inch swing over the bed, so it handles bowls, spindles and pens on a compact footprint. A belt-driven four-speed range (1040, 1480, 2130 and 2980 RPM) lets you slow down for large blanks and speed up for small ones, and soft-start ramps the motor up for more control. The steel bed and movable tailstock aim at low vibration and accurate alignment. It suits hobbyists and small shops that want a full-size-capacity lathe without a floor-standing machine, and it ships with two chisels, wrenches, an Allen key and hardware.
