Thread: EMCO compact 8 parts
28/09/2015 13:13:43

Hi, I have an asian copy compact 8 (named TOP 450). It seems to be pretty identical, even improved in some ways (changeable tool post, ball bearing idler etc). It doesnt seem to have any of the metal deterioration problems either.

But i would like to give it a service, and tighten it up if possible. There is some slop in the axes which i would like to remove.

If anyone could give me some tips as to what to check / replace that would be great.
