103 Multi-Speed Brake Lathe
SELECTING THE FEED RAT E
1. The 103 features an infinitely variable feed on both the disc slide and the drum
slide. This will allow the operator to totally control surface finish and
machining time for drums and discs. Refer to chart below for the spindle
speed/feed rate ratio to determine the optimum feed rate.
2. The feed rate knob (Figure 13) can be adjusted from a setting of "0" (no feed)
to "10" (fast feed), or any position in between. The lower the number, the
slower the feed, and the smoother the finish -- the higher the number, the
faster the feed, and the coarser the finish.

ENGAGING THE FEED
1. Both the disc slide and the drum slide can be manually operated in either
direction by turning the handwheel. The disc slide feed lock knob
(Figure 14) and the drum slide feed lock knob (Figure 15)
must be disengaged in order for the slides to be manually operated.
2. To engage the power feed on the disc or drum slide requires the operator to
engage the disc slide feed lock knob or the drum slide feed lock knob. The
power feed will not operate properly without these knobs engaged.
3. When the machining operation has been completed shut lathe off and
disengage the knob to prepare for the next job.
