R 56 KAD10 , levers are set to those , where is the 56 ?
Made me laugh…..The bit that goes from 0.5 to 14 is your metric threads.
The bits below that are your longitudinal (LHS of table) and cross feeds.
*Does it have a setting for FCK U ?*
Was that chinesium?Used to work at a place that redid hydraulic cylinders. Repair 50 cylinders and the lathe was paid for. 100 and the lathe was worn out. Throw it away buy another. Miserable eh.
Yes please that would be helpful thanksWe have a very similar machine at work. I think we have a PDF manual if you want it.
Sent you a PMYes please that would be helpful thanks
Oh absolutely. Hare and Forbes crap.Was that chinesium?
That’s the meehanite symbol, a brand name of a cast iron with a certain carbon ratioThe one we have is made by Ecoca in Taiwan, it's got the same M cast into the end of the bed that you see on the column of King Rich mills etc
56 is 56 tpi (threads per inch). Others follow a similar pattern.
You can work out the logic of the levers (what cogs they move) by halving or doubling the tpi. Look at 2 tpi and 4 tpi and the difference is J or K.

For all the Chinese machinery knockers, how many western machines will do both 11 1/2 and 19 tpi?
