TURNING FEED RATE
(DIST./REVOLUTION)
Figure 85. Gearbox levers set for a feed rate of 0.014"
(0.35mm).
Positioning Gearbox Levers
To cut a particular thread or establish a
particular feed rate, you may need to first swap
the gearbox drive gear, depending on where it is
currently set (refer to End Gear Setup on Page
47).
Once you have confirmed that the end gear is
set up properly, you can then move the gearbox
levers to the required positions. The arrows
going from Figure 84 to Figure 85 show which
gearbox levers must be moved to achieve an
example feed rate.
