Hi folks, not my machine but I am trying to help another Lienen owner. He asked if I had an indicator on my machine which I don't but figured I would put it out there and see if anyone else knows.
The deal is he has a threading indicator and an inch thread lealdscrew MLZ but is missing the gears that connect the indicator to the screw. The small gear appears to be metric module 1 with 16 teeth. The leadscrew seems to be imperial 8 threads per inch, so the larger gear it engages with might be a Diametral Pitch rather than Module size.
It is a long shot but does anyone know what those gears are supposed to be. In a quick image search it seems like threading indicators are not common on these machines. Mine doesn't have nor does Sbs' (the only other active Leinen MLZ owner on the forum I know of). I have never seen detailed documentation for Leinens like I have for my Schaublin 13 mill with drawings of everything including accessories etc. although that would be perfect for this situation.
thanks
Luke
