Figure 8‐1: Spindle speed range setup

Changing spindle speed range
The speeds of the lathe are controlled by the variable speed
select knob (W, Fig 5‐2) as well as the position of the belt on
the pulleys (Fig 8‐1).

A ......... 50~1250 RPM .......... for maximum torque.
B .......... 100~2500 RPM ........ for maximum speed.
Remove the pulley cover (C, Fig 5‐1) to change the belt
position. Reinstall the pulley cover.

Figure 8‐2: Change gear setup

Change gear setup
Remove the pulley cover.
The rotational speed of the lead screw, and hence the rate of
feed of the cutting tool, is determined by the gear
configuration and by the feed speed select lever (R, Fig 5‐2).
Assemble the gears with desired setup (Fig 8‐2)

Adjust gears to mesh with upper and lower gear.
Placing ordinary paper in between gears helps to adjust for
correct gear spacing (… remove the paper afterwards!).
Reinstall the pulley cover.

Figure 10‐6: Machine controls
The correct feed depends on the material to be cut, the cutting
operation, the type of tool, the rigidity of the work piece
chucking, the depth of cut and the desired surface quality.

Figure 10‐7: Available feed rates

Turning with auto feed
Move the half‐nut lever (CC, Fig 10‐6) down, to engage the
automatic longitudinal feed. Move it up to disengage
Three feed rates are readily available by rotating the feed
select knob (R, Fig 9‐1).

For example:
Operation feed/rev select knob
Stock removal 0,28mm ................................ III
Finishing cut 0.14mm ................................. II
Micro finishing cut 0.07mm .................................. I
NOTE: Three additional feed rates are available with different
change gear setup (Fig 10‐7).

The correct feed depends on the material to be cut, the cutting
operation, the type of tool, the rigidity of the work piece
chucking, the depth of cut and the desired surface quality.
When roughing big diameters reduce the depth of cut !
