the quill feed control shift lever will not stay engaged. Is there some detent spring that can be adjusted? I desperately need this machine to bore a part that is setup and waiting.

The KENT USA KTM-5VKF-E manual does not provide specific instructions on adjusting the detent spring for the quill feed control shift lever. However, if the detent spring is not keeping the lever engaged, you may try the following general steps:

1. Locate the Detent Spring – Identify the detent spring and related components in the quill feed control mechanism.
2. Check for Wear or Damage – Inspect the spring for wear, deformation, or damage.
3. Adjust Spring Tension – If possible, increase the spring tension by repositioning it or replacing it with a stronger spring.
4. Secure Fasteners – Ensure that all screws, pins, and related components are tight and properly aligned.
5. Lubricate Moving Parts – Apply light lubrication to reduce friction and improve engagement.

If further adjustment is needed, refer to the machine’s service manual or consult a technician.
