Hi Guys
Am at my wits end with this bloody machine of mine ~!@#$%^&*()_P
Needed to cut Exterior Metric 1.5mm Threads. Machine panels says engage LCS6Y GEARS. Double-confirm from attached pic.
No problem with the alphabets but the Gear Lever for Numero 6 just won't Engage. That's the Lever in the Centre with the Blue/Red Numbers on either side in second picture.
Tried umpteenth times, even with lathe running in very low speed. No dice !!! It just won't engage into 6. Try any other Number and she is ready to go.
What am I doing wrong ???
Why or what is causing the Lever to Jam ???
How would one soften the movement on this Lever ???
Don't know much about these things, but is there no Clutch to soften the movements ???
Would immensely appreciate some help here as the Threads already cut just won't fit the internal one's cut manually with a Die already.
Thanks in advance (TIA)
Kind regards
