Threading

The following subsections describe how to use the threading controls and charts to set up the lathe to cut threads. If you are unfamiliar with how to cut threads on a lathe, we strongly recommend that you read books, review industry trade magazines—or get formal training before attempting any threading tasks.

Headstock Threading Controls

The threading charts on the headstock show the settings for metric, inch, modular, and diametral threading.

Using the controls on the lathe, follow along with the example below to understand how to set up the lathe headstock controls for threading.

Setting Metric Thread Pitch of 1.75

1.Make sure the end gears are in the standard configuration (refer to End Gears on Page 52 for detailed instructions).

2.Locate the line in the metric thread chart that lists the setting for 1.75mm thread pitch, as illustrated in Figure 73.

3.The configuration string of characters to the right of the selected thread pitch (LS8Y) displays the positions to set the threading controls for a metric thread pitch of 1.75 (see Figure 73).

4.Position the controls as follows:

Note: Each of the thread charts has a C or V in the header that is to be used for all of the listings in that chart. For the C, use the left quick-change gearbox lever, and for the V use the right.

L Move the feed range lever to Low.

S Point the middle quick-change gearbox lever to S.

8Position the bottom gearbox lever in the 8 slot.

YPoint the right gearbox lever to Y. The lathe is now set up to cut 1.75mm threads.
