I have a Steinel SH4 mill. Would be glad to provide any info I can.
I'm also looking for any additional info I can get on this mill regarding lube requirements, age etc.
Thanks

Yes- I'm still out here and still haven't found out what gear drives the vert head attachment.
Bake- I'll dig through what I have to see about lube requirements and possibly the age. Off the top of my head I'd guess 1950's.
Does yours have a 5 inch square window which allows you to view inside the machine while it is operation???
They are really nice hefty machines for the small size!

Markus: Thanks for the reply. Mine does have the viewing window...nice touch. They are a very substantial machine and mine is in excellent shape(including new main spindle bearings...they're still available). I have a pic of a Steinel with a vertical head fitted to it....don't know if that will help...

Hi you all
I also had a Steinel milling machine I sold one year ago or so.
I've always been amazed by the RIDICULOUS table to spindle (MT3) height...
Put a collet holder and a vise on it, and then, just try to figure how to insert the part you want to machine in between...
Curious, as the overall rugged construction of the machine suggested more heavy milling capabilities.
Mine also had a specific mechanism allowing a quick raising of he knee. Never been able to figure out what it was really intended for.
Would any of you have some infos about that machine ?

If any of you are still around, I'm really looking for some help with my SH4d. I posted a thread here: http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/showthread.php/mt3-trouble-197197.html
EDIT: By the way, I was able to get a portion of the SH4d manual (in German, but it still helped) from a member named yoyo. His profile is here: http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/member.php?u=64892
thanks,
