It's a 1946 820 with taper attachment, S/N 36444.
I have everything else removed from the apron, and I have removed the set screw in the lever, unfortunately not I can't get the lever to budge coming off of the eccentric assembly.
Any suggestions? Is there something I'm missing?
I've tried penetrating oil, and a little bit of heat, but nothing helps.
I even ground the shaft flush with the top of the lever because it looked like someone may have hit it with a hammer many years ago, and I thought it might be mushroomed out causing it to jam, but that didn't help.
Do the parts need to be pressed apart?
BTW, I'm doing a full restore on the lathe and therefore the reason I'm taking everything apart, cleaning, removing old paint and repainting this beauty.
