Kondia FV-1 Head disassembly

[Rickabilly]

Hello Darren,
249 and 250 are the spring clip and it's bolt that hold the "snap in" cover onto the side of the belt housing these are different on many clones, but I have seen similar ones before, if you have a look at the drawing the triangle bit on the lower left sits inside the edge of the belt housing and the round bit of the spring clips under the top edge,

I had difficulty finding the parts on the drawing but as soon as I saw it I recognised it instantly,

Just my 2cents worth, I'd get a small geared DC or 3 phase motor and digital speed controller and retrofit it as a quill feed motor, otherwise it is likely to cost a mint in spares. Other wise, investigate the mounts for the head and see how similar to a Bridgeport or clone it might be, just the four front face bolt's spacing should tell you what you need to know, and them look about for a complete head at the right price.

I don't mean to devastate you but that is a whole lotta parts you need there, If you want a project go ahead and start making them, but you'll need to start with the quill lock as you will need that before you can use the machine.

regards
Rick
