The 12 sections are as follows: No.1 Lathe Care and Construction No.2 Theory of Metal Cutting No.3 Cutting Tools No.4 The Machining of Various Metals No.5 Holding the Work No.6 Drilling and Boring No.7 Thread Cutting No.8 Lathe Attachments and Their Uses No.9 Woodturning on the Metal Lathe No.10 Machinist Tables No.11 Index No.12 Pages For Your Shop Notes For your convenience, I have reprinted up six different original versions of this Manual of Lathe Operation book to cover the large span of lathes that Atlas produced from circa 1937 to the late 1900’s. Some of the manuals overlap on certain machines and parts, because Atlas didn’t change every machine and part at precise times, but I can help you match the appropriate manual with your machine. SEE “Which manual works with your lathe:” below. I am aware that there are original versions of this manual sold on eBay, but I am not trying to compete with those manuals. By many request, this collection of manuals was reproduced for my Atlas Craftsman-Sears customers. I am trying to provide a complete collection of manuals after years of research and processing, scanning, and cleaning over 1,500 pages from these 6 different manuals. I hope my effort helps you with locating the appropriate manual for operating your size and vintage of lathe. Example Pictures from various Lathe Operation Manuals: Which manual works with your lathe: I have six different manuals in my store that cover different vintages/models and sizes of Atlas Craftsman-Sears lathes. Some of the manuals overlap on certain lathes and parts, because Atlas didn’t make changes to every machine and part at precise times. Below is an explanation of the six different manuals. If you have any questions about a manual, please let me know. Please note: The pictures are given to show a general idea of the models covered in each manual.
