Have a couple covers to put on but wiring is done.
Except
Burned wire in the mill motor made like welding inside the fwd/off/rev box after 20sec I’d run time when I tested. Boy did that make me jump.
Lathe is 100% happy electrically. Haven’t cleaned it off of tooling to test the feeds and such.
Same insulation failure on that main motor lead as what took out the bed crossfeed motor, but only on one wire, not all.
This is the crossfeed motor:
I don’t know how to get the windings out of the case on the crossfeed, and I don’t know how to get the sheave off the motor spindle to get the motor cover off the main motor. Looks like disassembly was attempted once, two set screws are missing. I think it might be a thread-a-volt-in-the-end to press it off situation but I don’t have high confidence in that nor a long enough 3/8 fine thread bolt.
It’s a variable ratio belt drive setup, manual control of the driven sheave spacing and spring loaded on the driven side, plus a high/low ratio.
I swapped bottles on the lift. There’s no limit on how far that rear arm can swing until it hits the wall so technically that could happen again, but clearance improved significantly with bottle turned around.
