The far left column in the feed rate chart (
Figure
42)
shows which change gears must be installed so the chart
will be applicable.
For example
: Using the metric chart to make a 0.158mm
per revolution longitudinal cut, refer to the row that has
this symbol: .
Then put the
left-hand lever in the
C
position, and the
right-hand lever in the
4
position.
To perform a facing cut, use the chart the same way
but refer to the row that has this symbol: .
Note:
When either of the two selector levers are left in
the down position, the drive train is disengaged and is in
neutral.
Feed Rate Chart
The two levers (
Figure

at the bottom of the headstock
change the feed rate or the number of threads cut per-
inch.
The left-hand lever engages in alpha positions
A
,
B
,
C
,
D
, and
E
; and the right-hand lever engages in numeric
positions
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,

the quick change gearbox levers.
Gearbox Levers
NOTICE
NEVER attempt to shift a lever while the lathe is
running! And when shifting a lever, NEVER force it. If
the lever will not engage, rotate the chuck by hand
while keeping light pressure on the lever. As the
chuck rotates it aligns the gears and the lever will
engage.
