Ed,
Don't know if this will help. But on my 8x12 HF lathe the compound had a lot of play. Never could get it adjusted out with the split nut. I finally made a brass washer that fit in the recess of the bearing for the compound screw. That took the vast majority out. Hopefully someone will come up with a solution to the problem.
