Since nobody answered #6 yet. It’s the slave cylinder with hydraulic hose for the vari drive. And #3 is the hand wheel that goes onto the back end of the head stock spindle. In post #12 you have your hand on the spindle clutch. Up is to engage the spindle, in the middle is neutral and down is for brake. And a note on that handle; that lathe handle has a history of being finicky and not staying in the up position! You might need to repair and or adjust it. Same note on the vari drive sleeve set-up. AND YOU GOT A SCREAMING DEAL, YOU SUCK!
Does that slave cylinder need to be reinstalled? In post 12 I meant to add a question. It is free. It doesn't turn the rod. I haven't had a chance to put any tools to it and thought maybe it was just loose. I wondered with that electrical stuff he put on it maybe it wasn't needed anymore. Any thoughts? I haven't even been able to turn it on and have all these questions. I wonder how many I'll have after it gets running! Is there a limit in this forum of posting too much?????
