I just purchased a SB 14.5 lathe. the only obvious problem is that the idler gear is missing half of one tooth. There is no evidence of damage carrying over to the other gears it meshes with.
As I get ready to test the lathe (and find out what else is wrong) I was wondering if I should avoid testing using the partially broken gear or if it would be ok if I watch my speeds.
Thanks ahead for your help
