I have a 1963 10ee ELSR and am trying to thread with (toward the head stock). I did not set up the ELSR and the thread is 1/4”-20 X 1”. After setting up the thread levers per the square dial, I found that the thread dial wasn’t turning when I engaged the spindle. Looked at the lead screw, and it also wasn’t turning. Turned the lead screw with my fingers and it turned freely.. I get an impression that something sheared at either end of the lead screw.
Has anyone seen this problem before? Any suggestions for where to look further?
