These lathes are all quite similar and I have heard people say that Grizzly in the USA have better manuals that can be downloaded. Jason

2 forum posts	Thanks guys that info is really helpful, by the way it says "GH 1224 VS" on the head stock!!!! so perhaps it was converted or something

So it has the advantages of a geared head and the variable speed that an inverter driven system gives. If you have queries or problems, Give Warco a call, they are extremely helpful and friendly. I've been a Warco customer for years and cannot fault their service and support. (Usual disclaimers)
