Dual dials with inch and metric hand wheel dial. Each graduation of the Indicating Ring "C" (Figure 30) is
0.02mm (0.001") on the diameter. It is provided for operator's convenience. The Indicating Ring is spring
loaded, so a lock screw is not needed. To use it, just turn the Indicating Ring to required location by hand.
Cross Slide operation of free and adjustment of clutches are identical with the operation and adjustment of
carriage clutches. If CTL-618e TOOLROOM LATHE needs to be used with the taper turning attachment,
loosen the screw "S" (Figure 30) with a spanner wrench.

The compound slide has a quick-acting tool post, at the start of threading cut, place the ball-handle "H"
(Figure 31) of the quick-acting tool post toward the work piece, at the end of the threading cut, the threading
tool is instantly cleared from the work by hand operated, handle "H", for the return of the carriage to the next
cut, the ball-handle lever actuating the tool post slide feed screw. Operate above procedure repeatedly until
the threaded work piece is completed. Each graduation of the indicated ring "C" (Figure 31) is 0.02mm
(0.001") on diameter.

The carriage Power Feed unit is mounted on the carriage.
It is powered by AC motor "M" (Figure 32).
1. The power feed can be operated only when the machine is running. Start the power feed by turning
Cam Switch "S" (Figure 33).
2. The Cam Switch "S" (Figure 33) controls the direction of the power feed.
3. The carriage Feed Control "N" (Figure 33) controls the rate of feed. When Cam Switch "S" (Figure 33)
is placed in "RIGHT" position, the carriage will feed toward the right, the cross slide will feed away from
the operator.
4. When Cam Switch "S" (Figure 33) is placed in "LEFT" position, the carriage will feed toward the left,
the cross slide will feed toward operator.
5. Turn Cam Switch "S" (Figure 33) to "STOP" position, power feed motor is turned off.
6. The rate of the carriage feed should be pre-selected to suit each particular job, which depend on
material, diameter, type of cut, and tooling used.
7. The numbers on the carriage feed control panel, do not represent either thousandths per revolution or
inches per minute. So the operator must test sample pieces for determining the spindle speed and rate
