I have been using my S&B 1024 for awhile now and I have developed some slippage with the Coventry Tool Matrix drive. It has tow speeds and I have mainly used the low range. When I put the machine back together the drive seemed to function fine so I didn't mess with it. I have taken pretty decent cuts with no issues up till about a month ago. Now it stalls with very light cut on some 6" OD cast iron parts I am cutting. The input shaft is spinning but the output is not. The lathe has had very minimal use, seems odd for this to just crop up.
I looked at some posts here about a similar clutch but it hasn't really helped me. Can someone shed some light on exactly where you put the feeler gauge when you adjust it? The instructions and the diagram are not that clear. I am attaching some pics.
Any help will be appreciated as the machine is currently useless and a job is siting in the chuck now!
Thanks,
Paul
