As the title says, I am the new owner of a 10 inch TH42 lathe. Nothing too fancy but will fit well into my shop and I am happy to be picking it up this week. While the lathe is partially disassembled for transport, I would like to give it a good cleaning and lube as it is set up. Does anyone have a PDF of the operation manual of this model to share?

Thanks
 
The manuals and parts break down are in the downloads section of this forum. And pictures of it are a must when you get it home. We love tool porn here.

Couldn't see any documents in the download section but learned I am not at the minimum required post count to access these files.
 
I got the lathe home today and began the process of cleaning / lubing / assembly. I have not yet hooked up the motor as I want to work on the wiring, adding a grounding plug. There were a lot of tooling included. Some highlights are a 4 jaw chuck (no 3 jaw) / many centers including live centers / boxes of reamers and drills / boxes of HSS tooling and other boxes which I have not yet went through. The original cast iron stand legs were included as well as the Atlas quick change gear box. I hope to add a couple of pictures next.
 
Here is a picture of the lathe and I will take a better picture tomorrow as progress continues on the reassembly. Sorry but it looks like the picture is upside down

And some of the tooling, again better pictures to follow after I sort throughIMG_0283.JPG IMG_0284.JPG IMG_0285.JPG them
 
Looks like o good amount of tooling. Did you get the change gears with it?
 
Came with quick change gear box. It will take me a while to get through all of the included tooling. I found it odd that there were 5 brand new, in the cardboard box, .374 reamers. There must have been a good deal on them.

The QCGB os a Model or Number 1500. The installation instructions and parts list are in Downloads.

I appreciate the information. As of now, I am no where near being able to utilize the functions of the QCGB except for controlling the speed of the lead screw for automatic feeding. I hope to pass the 30 post count before that information will be of use for me but I will let you know if it is needed sooner.
