Sorry I mean Peter NOT Graham. I don't even know a Graham... Where did that come from??? (slight senior moment there, a bit of old timers disease)

Well Graham; thanks again for the manual, it was received here no problem.
 
Your manual is far better than the one I have. I think mine must have been MK1 as it has so many mistakes in it and revisions factory glued in which still appear to be wrong, it also has a page in French; also it is on pink dot matrix background which makes it so hard to read but it does have a few more coloured pictures. The manual you sent me is just great.

BIG BIG THANKS!!!
 
I would be very grateful of a copy you have for the exact reason you say... to keep a copy on my computer as I can always refer to it in the workshop rather than getting this original dirty.
 
I will PM you my email address and again, thank you

I have a Warco as above which I have had very little time so far to use... So much so it has still got most if not all of its protective coatings on it and the change wheels have never been on. Built 1993 Machine No. 112
 
I bought it as used and have owned it for about 8 months now and am getting a bit of free time I would like to get use to it as it seems a substantial machine compared to my Myford.
 
My main question today is to do with the tread cutting change gears.
 
In the manual it mentions Z1~Z6 gears
I am trying to get the combination right for ~/1" 11 which asks for Z1=32, Z2&Z3=60, Z4=44, Z5=50 & Z6=63.
Now... I have all the gears but Z1 which is 32 teeth. The 32 toothed gear I have is an idler gear e.g. it has 32 teeth and a boss but no dogs to mesh with the other gears on the same shaft. I t all so has NO T32 on it. Is this Correct?
 
Looking at the picture in the manual of the gear Z setup has got me a bit confused... Can anyone throw any light on which Z 1,2,3,4,5,6 goes with which shaft or even a itemised photo or picture showing which is which e.g. top middle or bottom.
 
Thanks in advance of any help given
 
P.S. Does anyone have a .PDF of the instruction manual please?
 
 
I also have a Myford ML7 long bed (Ex University machine), Portass Lathe and a Emco MAXIMAT7 Mill (Ex University machine).... etc.
