Automatic Feed and Threading Dial

Once the gears are set up, you will need to engage the Threading Dial (65) so you can monitor the number of threads cut.

Set up the Threading Dial as described in the SET UP section under Threading Dial.

Set the direction for the lathe with the Forward/OFF/Reverse Switch.

Turn the Power Switch on (the switch will light up).

Adjust the speed needed to cut the threads (consult advanced information about cutting threads with mini-lathes). Use the following table, also located on the front of the Lathe, to determine what number to start threading:
