Setting Power Feed Rate

The feed rate chart on the upper right of the headstock face shows the settings for metric and inch feed rates.

Using the controls on the lathe, follow along with the example below to better understand how to set the lathe for the desired power feed rate.

Setting Power Feed Rate of 0.18mm/rev

1.Make sure the end gears are in the standard configuration, which is applicable for general feed operations (refer to End Gears on the next page for detailed instructions).

E.Feed Selection Lever: Engages the power feed for either the cross slide or the carriage (see Figure 67).

Figure 67. Feed selection lever positions.

When the lever is down and the indent pin is pointing up, the cross slide is selected. Conversely, when the lever is up and the pin is pointing down, the carriage is selected.

In the middle position, the apron gears are disengaged from the feed rod and neither component will move.

Note: When using this lever, you may need to slightly rotate the handwheel of the component you are trying to engage, so that the apron gears can mesh.

F.Apron Feed Direction Knob: Reverses the feed direction from what is shown on the headstock.

Note: The advantage of using this knob is that you can quickly reverse power feed direction while the spindle is rotating—without having to turn the lathe off, waiting until the spindle is stopped, then using the feed direction lever on the headstock.

2.Locate the line in the feed rate chart that lists the setting for 0.18mm of feed per revolution of the spindle, as illustrated in Figure 68.
