Can the PM1340GT do an 11.5 thread pitch? I need an adapter for a garden hose and it's a 3/4-11.5 thread. It's the 1/2 thread part that I'm not sure of.
 
the lathe is technically capable of turning 11.5 tpi threads, but your gearbox might not have the correct threading gears to accomplish it with the stock gears and ratios available.
you may be lucky enough to where a 2.2mm metric pitch may be close enough to work, if you didn't want to get additional gearing
 
With the gears provided, short answer is no. There is a calculated gear combination that will give this, but the gear is not made. There is an 11.516 TPI using the 30 to 127 input and 120 to 32 output and using B7 gear selector.

Thanks, thought the 1/2 thread would be an issue. I'll just buy an adapter from the local RV supply, they're fairly cheap.
