I posted a while back about some cheap chinese lathe and got shot down hahaha, well I saw the light and bought a southbend. Used as it is, its still a beast and seems to be in decent condition. At least good enough for me. I just got it in the house last night and am ready to start taking it apart. Its a 9" model number 9961KAR8 (was on the ways), and I need to know how to take a few things apart on it. Plenty of pictures will be taken to document the endeavor.
I need to know how to take the compound off, the carriage and the maybe the transmission controls at the front left of the machine. Also while Im here asking all these probably obvious questions, how do I get the belt off that runs from the pulleys on the motor to the headstock? Do I hammer out the pin on the big drive wheel and slide it off the shaft? Any links, help, pm's or anything from those who are well versed in southbends would be appreciated
I'd post pics but it said invalid thread.
