3 forum posts | Hi guys, I’ve recently bought a Clarke CL500M and can’t get the mill head to operate. When you engage the clutch for the mill head there’s no drive. I’m sure that the clutch is fully engaged. The large works perfect. Any ideas why I can’t get the mill head to turn?
thanks |

314 forum posts 28 photos | I've had one of these for 25 years (and am content with it). The movable collar needs a good shove to get from lathe to mill drive, and vice versa. There is a mid-position that feels like full engagement, but it's not. |
