Do any of you have or know of a drawing covering the drive train (cogs& shafts) of their early lathes.
specifically a 1955 model/type 13 . NO the service agents don’t have the records either, someone in their wisdom didn’t think they would be needed!
I volunteer for a charity whose lathe has the irritatin habit of suddenly falling out of drive right in the middle of a series of cuts. Then it takes an age to persuade it to reengage by which time any datum point has been lost.
The service agents say it’s either a worn part under the apron or less likely
in the head/ gearbox,
Do any of you have any relevant experience of said model?
