It must be fun lifting the head as high as one of the photo's shows. Tooling might be a bit of a problem too as no draw bar - an odd compression fitting holds the taper in. I've always liked the look of them. Too big for me though. John -

28 forum posts | It looks like the Indian copy of the arboga that has suffered a motor transplant as the original motor is inside the gearbox I have a original Arboga with a factory fitted compound table with power feeds You need special tooling that is held in place with a collar . I have both collet chucks and a orginal boreing head for mine but tend to use it mostly as drilling machine Spindle taper is 3 morse Mike |

3631 forum posts 160 photos | I rechecked lathes co. Seems they can be Indian, Taiwanese, Russian or Swedish. Even not sure where. Interesting one though as it looks like it may have the larger table and perhaps travel to. They mention a slotted washer for fitting and extraction plus modified auto lock.
