Item Description:
Seller assumes all responsibility for this listing.

3/4 HP motor, 1PH, currently wired for 115V
4 speed
12" swing
39" between centers
L 60" H 47" D 16.5"
Comes with three tool rests (12", 6", and a 90°) and 3" faceplate. Will toss in any other accessories I might have lying around.


I have replaced the power switch, installed new wiring to the power switch, swapped the V belt for a link belt, found a replacement for the original tailstock wrench, and made new oak knobs for the belt tension lever and headstock pulley access door.

The lathe runs, but the centers are not co-planar, which is reflected in the price. Adjustments to the headstock might help the issue and maybe some shimming but those are tasks for the next owner. I've still been able to make turnings around the issue. To the best of my knowledge, everything else is in good working order. Lots of life left in this lathe. Heavy and sturdy (350lbs according to manuals available online). It's admittedly more lathe than I require. I moved down to a slightly smaller lathe more suited to my needs. I'd rather this lathe be in the hands of someone who can appreciate it than it sitting around my shop.

Selling as-is.

Comments:
***PLEASE READ***
Buyer responsible for removing it from my ground level workshop. (There is a slightly raised threshold leading to the outside.) The lathe is particularly top heavy and there is not much to grab onto. Strongly recommend bringing someone who knows how to move heavy things (and comes prepared) as I can only offer some limited help getting it out of the building. I am unable to assist getting it into your vehicle.
