Automatic Feed and Threading Dial
Once the gears are set up, you will need
to engage the Threading Dial (65) so you
can monitor the number of threads cut.
Set up the Threading Dial as described
in the SET UP section under Threading
Dial.
Set the direction for the lathe with the
Forward/OFF/Reverse Switch.
Turn the Power Switch on (the switch will
light up).
Adjust the speed needed to cut the
threads (consult advanced information
about cutting threads with mini-lathes).
Use the following table, also located on
the front of the Lathe, to determine what
number to start threading:
