Emergency brake

[Torbo]

My Harrison M300 lathe has a primary v belt drive from the motor. The brake is a matching v-shaped shoe pivoted to rub in one of the pulley grooves. The shoe is connected to a foot pedal bar with a lever-based design connected to the shoe by a push rod. An adjustable trip bar interrupts the electrical latch when braking.

I have not powered my lathe yet but I have heard that this is a very effective brake.

Thanks everyone!
I like the matching v-shaped shoe pivoted to rub in one of the pulley grooves specially.

The easiest way to du it I think?
(If the electrical don work!)
