To avoid damaging the lathe, ALWAYS make
sure the spindle is completely stopped
BEFORE using the headstock controls to
make changes.
Power Feed Controls
Use Figures 60–61 and the following descrip-
tions to understand the power feed controls.
Note: Before using power feed, you may have to
reconfigure the end gears, depending on how they
are set up. Refer to End Gears on Page 49 for
detailed instructions.

headstock.
A. Feed Direction Lever: Selects the direction
for power feed. When the lever is positioned
as shown in Figure 60, the carriage will move
to the left along the bed, or the cross feed will
travel toward the front of the lathe.
B. Quick-Change Gearbox Dials & Levers:
Position these as indicated on the charts to
choose different feed rates.
C. Feed Rate Chart: Displays the settings of
the quick-change gearbox levers and dials
for the selected feed rate. Refer to Setting
Power Feed Rate subsection, beginning on
this page, for detailed instructions.

D. Feed Selection Lever: Changes the power
feed to either the cross slide or the carriage.
When the lever is up, the cross slide is select-
ed. When the lever is down, the carriage is
selected. In the middle position neither the
cross slide nor the carriage will move.
Note: The feed selection lever must slide to
the right before it can move downward. This
is a safety feature designed to prevent the
lever from engaging the cross feed when
lifted to disengage the longitudinal feed.
Note: When using this lever, you may need
to slightly rotate the handwheel of the com-
ponent you are trying to engage, so that the
apron gears can mesh.
Setting Power Feed Rate
The feed-rate chart (see Figure 60 for location)
displays the settings of the end-gears and head-
stock feed controls for feed rates.
