Thread: S7 power cross feed oiling issue? |
02/10/2012 19:43:47 |
After a smal misshap with th power crossfeed clutch (now fixed, loose bolts), Ix investigated the apron a bit closer. The bevel gear that takes drive from the leadscrew keyway does not seem to get any oil at all at its bushing. The driling from the nipple just to the left of the oil reservoir level plug that leads in the direction of the gear is not drilled through the bushing. Is this correct? The lathe. In question is a early S7 plus with the oddball bullwheel (67t). Perhaps not everything was perfect, after all. Should I try to drill the oilway through? Or is the bushing permeable to oil?
