A. Feed Direction Lever: Selects the direction
for power feed. When the lever is positioned
as shown in
Figure 79, the carriage will move
to the left along the bed, or the cross feed will
travel toward the rear of the lathe.
B. Headstock Feed Selection Lever: Selects
the leadscrew or feed rod for powered rota-
tion. The center position is neutral and nei-
ther will move.
C. Quick-Change Gearbox Levers: Select the
rate of power feed.
D. Apron Feed Selection Lever: Changes the
power feed to either the carriage or cross
slide.
When the lever is down and the indent pin
is pointing up, the cross slide is selected.
Conversely, when the lever is up and the pin
is pointing down, the carriage is selected.
In the middle position, the apron gears are
disengaged from the feed rod and neither
component will move.
Note: When using this lever, you may need
to slightly rotate the handwheel of the com-
ponent you are trying to engage, so that the
apron gears can mesh.
Power Feed Controls

Figures 79–80 and the following descrip-
tions to understand the power feed controls.
Note: Before using power feed, you may have to
reconfigure the end gears, depending on how they
are set up. Refer to

The lathe comes from the factory with the end
gears set up in the power feed configuration.
