Ok,am pulling the knee from my 3k. All went quite well until the gib bracket.
I hate to admit it but I'm stuck. :confused:
I was using my 1H book but of course it doesn't have rear controls. Hence the problem. I have an actual 3k book on the way (about 10 days out yet) but would really like to get this knee off now.(long story)
The knee gib bracket holds the trip dog that limits knee travel. The rod from the trip dog goes forward to coincide with the front controls. The rod will not simply pull forward out of the gib bracket. The shaft that the trip dog is fastened to(3/4") looks to be inside an eccentric round retainer? How does this area come apart and/or what parts does the book show?
An email is fine and/or I would be glad to call and talk, one time call, no future bothering with other questions etc. Any help appreciated. Thanks
Andy
 
Well the knee is off the mill.
The K&T folks put a dog point set screw at an angle in the rough part of the casting. Why, when there are two machined flats they pick the rough, but oh well. Reputation is saved
