HELP DISMANTLE TAILSTOCK
« on: September 06, 2015, 02:16:12 AM »
Hello there Guys
Really hope someone would be able to kindly assist.
Been having trouble with our TAILSTOCK FEEDSCREW CLAMPING LEVER, Part # 42, wherein it does not engage and is stuck.
Need to open and rectify this.
Problem is how to ???
This is a Taiwanese metre bed machine.
Hope we can load pics from the manual and the actual Tailstock itself.
Would appreciate some enlightenment.
TIA
aRM

To me it looks like you need to remove the hand wheel, remove the end cap and then the retainer, the the tail stock centre should then slide out allowing you access to pull the clamp out through the side  :thumbup:
People say you only live once ! I say thank F@*K can't afford to do it twice.
