Hi Folks,
First post and seeking background assistance. Purchased a Weiler LZ280 complete with many accessories and after reviewing the many related posts on this Lathe I'm seeking any support information you can provide.
The Lathe was used by an instrument maker for Astronomy and Horology applications so wear is minimal. Unfortunately, since the instrument is now long in the tooth (built around 1970), the support documentation is long gone.
I would appreciate electronic copies of anything relating to the lathe (preferably in English).
Also interested in the history of the Weiler company. From my contact so far I can appreciate the fine engineering in the 280 series and from the limited information on the Web appreciate the current products continue a fine tradition. Since Weiler is not (to my knowledge) represented in Australia, I'm struggling to find much detailed information.
Any information you can provide would be much appreciated
Thanks
