Thanks for that. Mine was disguised in some conduit but that is where it entered.View attachment 197543 If you look behind the lathe at the bottom of the stand under the headstock there is a square box which is the mains input into the lathe.
Superb news ! I can't see easily from the pic,do you have oil in the headstock? Those Gamet bearing need lube and it may make it quieter,,only may though!
