I'm trying to help a friend with a Cincinnati HydraShift that has a problem. It runs the spindle fine and will dial up and run up all gears. But we can't get it to run the lead screw. The gear train outside the head stock runs the QCGB input shaft. The QCGB will shift both gear selectors, but not the lead screw reversing lever. The lead screw will not turn by hand but is free from the apron controls. The cross feed lever and the carriage feed lever are disengaging from the gear train and the half nuts also will engage and disengage. We're down to removing the QCGB but I wanted to ask you guys opinion before going that far. Any help greatly appreciated.
