Saddle – Daily lubricate ball oiler (A, Figure
12) on handwheel shaft with SAE 20W.
The anti-dust felt on both ends of the saddle
where it contacts the ways should be cleaned
weekly with kerosene. If the felt becomes
damaged, replace it.
5. Compound Rest – Daily lubricate two ball
oilers (B, Figure 12) on top of compound rest
with SAE 20W.
6. Cross Slide – Daily lubricate one ball oiler (C,
Figure 12 – opposite side) with SAE 20W.
Figure 12
7. Tailstock – Daily lubricate one ball oiler (A,
Figure 13) on top of tailstock with SAE 20W.
Figure 13
8. V-Belts – Regularly check and adjust the
tightness of the v-belts to prolong their service
life. See section 14.6, Belt replacement and
adjustment.
10.0 Coolant preparation
Follow coolant manufacturer’s
recommendations for use, care and disposal.
1. Remove access cover on tailstock end at the
rear base of the lathe. Make sure coolant
pump has not shifted during transport.
2. Pour four gallons (approximate) of coolant mix
into the chip pan.
3. After machine has been connected to power,
turn on coolant pump and check to see that
coolant is cycling properly.
4. Replace access cover.
11.0 Electrical connections
Electrical connections must be
made by a qualified electrician in compliance
with all relevant codes. This machine must be
properly grounded while in use to help protect
the operator from electrical shock and possible
fatal injury.
The main motor is rated at 7-1/2 HP (or 10HP for
model 2280ZX), 230/460V and comes from the
factory prewired at 230V. Confirm that power
available at the lathe’s location is the same rating
as the lathe.
Power is connected properly when rotation of the
forward-reverse knob (see E, Figure 15) to the left
position causes the spindle to rotate
counterclockwise as viewed from the tailstock. If
the chuck rotates in the clockwise direction,
disconnect the lathe from the power source, switch
any two of the three power leads (not the green
ground wire), and re-connect the lathe to the power
source.
