spindle for a few minutes, forward and reverse, at a selec- tion of speeds in both speed ranges (transfer the Vee belt from inner to outer pulley grooves to change speed range). 2. The gearbox should also be run at this time, but first make certain that the leadscrew and feed shaft oilers at the tailstock end have been lubricated.
100 to 2000 rpm. Power requirement is 110 V, 60Hz. The lathes ship fully assembled, approximate net weight 395 lb PM-1030V, 365 lb PM-1022V. A sheet metal stand with two cabinets is available as an option. The spindle has a 1 inch bore, and is unusually short — just 11 inches, ideal for through-spindle work. Long service life is assured by high precision taper-roller spindle bearings, together with hardened and ground bed ways.

Everyday precautions • This machine is intended for use by experienced users familiar with met- al-working hazards. • Untrained or unsupervised operators risk serious injury. • Wear ANSI-approved full-face or eye protection at all times when using the machine (everyday eyeglasses are not reliable protection against flying parti- cles).

The button pops out when twisted clockwise a few degrees. This restores power, but does not activate motor. The PM-1022V and PM-1030V are conventional engine lathes that require little explanation except for specific details — MOTOR CONTROL speed control, thread cutting, and the saddle/cross-slide pow- er feed system.
CHUCK REMOVAL & REPLACEMENT Speed sensor Chucks and faceplates are secured to the PM-1030V spin- Input to the tachometer is from a sensor mounted on the left hand surface of the headstock, Figure 3-4. dle by three threaded studs and nuts, Figures 3-7 and 3-8. A knurled shutter ring allows the chuck to be removed or re-in- stalled with the nuts in place —...

To offset the tailstock for taper turning, loosen the tailstock clamp lever, Figure 3-15, then loosen the clamp screw (M5 set screw) at the tail end of the tailstock. The tailstock can now be moved forward or backward by adjusting the M8 socket head cap screws on either side.

STEADY & FOLLOWER RESTS viding support directly ahead of the cutting tool, Figure 3-29. It is secured to the saddle with two 8 mm socket head screws. Short, rigid workpieces mounted in a chuck can typically be machined without additional support. Long, slender workpiec- es need support near the cutting tool.
Section 4 SERVICING THE LATHE Disconnect power before any maintenance operation! Remove all machining debris and foreign objects before lubricating ANYTHING! Use the recommended lubricants or similar. Any oil is better than no oil – but only as a stop gap. GENERAL cess to the drain plug, Figure 4-1.
Page 21
LUBRICATION — APRON DRAIN & REFILL 1. Remove the apron fill plug, Figure 4-3. 2. Locate the drain plug on the underside of the apron casting. 3. Place a drain pan below the drain plug, then remove the plug. 4. Allow the oil to drain completely, then replace the drain plug.

ADJUSTMENT — GIB SCREWS ADJUSTMENT — CROSS-SLIDE BACKLASH When alternating between clockwise and counter clockwise rotation, the cross-slide handwheel may move freely a few de- grees but the cross-slide table stays put. Cross-slide lost motion is due to two factors: 1. Too-loose at- tachment of the handwheel attached to the leadscrew, and;...

ALIGNING THE LATHE quill. If the centers are aligned, the blade will point squarely front to back. If not, adjust the tailstock offset by a series of very small adjustments. The most important attribute of a properly set up lathe is its If the range of quill motion permits, check the blade align- ability to “machine parallel”, to cut a cylinder of uniform diame- ment at various extensions of the quill.
