South Bend Lathe Operators Manual for All 1906-1940 year model Lathes #1333
South Bend Lathe Operators Manual for 1906-1940 Lathes Operator Manual For Models: Description: This is the 39th edition of the South Bend “How to Run a Lathe”. This is a reproduction of the manual that was available when a South Bend Lathe was purchased. It is a must have manual for not only those with South Bend lathes, but for any lathe owner. It is reproduced in an 8-1/2″ by 11″ format with a comb binding that will allow the manual to lay flat while using and is much easier to use than the original 5″ by 7″ manual. The manual starts out with an interesting “History of the Lathe”. It gives instructions on “Setting Up and Leveling Your Lathe” and how each part of the lathe operates. There are chapters on “Lathe Tools & Their Applications”, “How to Take Accurate Measurements”, “Plain Turning (Work Between Centers)”, “Chuck Work”, “Taper Turning and Boring”, “Drilling, Reaming, and Tapping”, “Cutting Screw Threads”, and “Special Classes of Work”. It contains 130 pages. To view the Table of Contents, to inspect the quality of the manual, and to view select pages, please click on the gallery images above.
