Proud new owner of a 64 series I. It grinds immaculate, even better than i thought was possible coming from a 6x12 manual grinder with no coolant.
I am having trouble with the cross feed feeling like it is binding up and certain parts of its travel. If i put in in auto feed for one quick movement, it will go away and i can continue feeding. Not sure if it is related but 'dress' traverse (slower of the 2 quick feeds) does not go all the way to the sides of the chuck. It will stop an inch from each side. And the fast feed makes a noise like something is dragging across the leadscrew lengthwise.
Not sure if any of this is normal or if it is just an old machine that sat for very long and now starting to get some use.
Anyway, i am super happy with it even though i have been only using it manually since i picked it up.
