Carriage Stop 9A

[jcslocum]

Hello all,

Complete and utter noob here with an operation question. Does the carriage stop like the one below, stop the carriage and pop the clutch open?? I have used a much larger lathe under instruction; turn this, do that, etc.... and it had this effect, stopping the carriage.

Thanks for any info

Jon

Nice stop though.

Yeah, makes me want to paint and polish mine!

Just to clarify for the original poster, a stop does NOT disengage the automatic feed. You are expected to disengage the feed manually before the carriage hits the stop (say 1/4" before) and then run the carriage the rest of the way to the stop by hand.

That stop sure looks like one I refurbished for my 10 L but I sold it because it was the wrong one for my lathe. I do like that style though.

Thanks for the answers. That's not my stop but one from a post on here.
