The X9D Multi-Speed Lathe has a feed rate of .005” [.127mm] per revolution and a variable spindle speed.
Choose spindle speed based on the size of the work piece, slower for larger diameter parts.
75-80% power may also give a better surface finish. For some trucks with speed-sensitive locking axles, you may
need to reduce the speed to 50% to stay below lock-up rpm.
No guarantee can be made for inserts not purchased from Pro-Cut, as insert corner radius, relief angle, material
composition and edge preparation can have a strong effect on cutting quality, insert lift, and tendency of the work
piece to vibrate. Always use Genuine Pro-Cut 50-778 inserts for best results.
The maximum recommended depth of cut is 0.012” / 0.3mm per insert.
