8.1 Changing spindle speed
The speeds of the lathe are controlled by the position of the
belt on the pulleys (Fig 8‐1).

Figure 8‐1: Spindle speed chart

Figure 8‐2: 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 8‐4: Taper turning with top slide

By angling the top slide, tapers may be turned.
Loosen two hex nuts (A, Fig 8‐4) and rotate the top slide
according to the graduated scale (B).

Figure 10‐6: Machine controls

Apron travel (Y, Fig 10‐6), cross travel (Z) and top slide travel
(BB) can be operated for longitudinal and cross feeding

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
For example:
Operation feed/rev feed 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).

Figure 10‐9: Threading dial setup

Note:
For thread pitches of 0,2/0,3/0,5/0,6/0,75/ 1,0/ 1,5/3 mm the
half nut can be engaged at any point.
(lead screw pitch = 3 mm = can be divided by thread pitch).
