Operating A Lathe

Manual Description:Number of Pages: 107 enlarged and printed 8.5″ x 11″ This is a reproduction, not a photocopy, of an original Sheldon The Care and Operation of a Lathe Operator’s Manual. This book covers the older style Sheldon lathes like the one pictured below. This manual does not cover the newer style gear boxes. This book contains information on operation and maintenance. It also covers a lot on how to set up the lathe for cuts and how to do thread cutting. It also has a threading chart for the gear box. Overview I have collected this information for many years and have found the information they contain to be priceless in using and setting up the machines properly. I believe this manual will be a valuable resource of knowledge that will provide a lot of helpful information that is often hard to find. My manuals are not photocopies. I maintain a high standard of quality in my reproductions. Most of the manuals I reproduce look better than their originals. I have professionally digitally edited every page,and removed stains, wrinkles and handwriting. All of the manuals are printed on thick white paper to withstand shop wear and tear; they are then comb bound with heavy cover pages so they lie flat on the workbench.
