I just bought this lathe. The forward/reverse switch seems reversed. Lathe turns forward when switch is in reverse position, and vice versa.

looking from the tailpiece toward the chuck: forward is counter clockwise reverse is clockwise. Mine seems to turn a little slower in reverse so if yours is wired wrong at the switch you might consider that. I live in Texas and turn mostly mesquite wood and this lathe does a fine job with it.

what is the range in speed

3 ranges each variable. Speed: 250-700, 600-1,800 and 1,350-4,000 RPM

does this lathe have indexing feature?

Yes, it does have the indexing notches in the lockable wheel.
