Hi,
Does anyone own one of these or have any information on this Harbots surface grinder ? The Harbots name & Logo appear on a removable panel on the front of the base so maybe its rebadged ?
The excellent site Lathes.co.uk has a a page on a different and more sophisticated Harbots model but my new acquisition does not seem to share any similarities with the one pictured below.
I understand from the previous owner that the adapters / flanges are 'standard J&S' but having had a quick look at this there appears to be variation in the J&S ones.
The ways are in good condtion & the spindle OK I just want to gather any info I can. Only got it home last night (thats not my workshop).
Would anyone like to take a guess on the correct oil for the spindle (probably plain bearing) ?
Thanks
Tony
