Guys please forgive me if this question has been answered elsewhere. I recently revived my HF mini lathe to make a few parts and as it had been sitting for a while it needed a little cleanup. It hasn't been used a whole lot and is generally in good shape. In my blissful ignorance I took the jaws out of the chuck as part of the cleanup and I did note that each jaw has a number so I wasn't worried about getting it back together UNTIL I tried to reassemble it
I then discovered no trace of a number on the main part of the chuck. maybe I'm looking at the wrong spot. As you look at it in a position where the trade mark is readable, there is what looks like a number 1 immediately opposite. There is no indication of a 2 or a 3. There may be a convention (maybe 1 is opposite the trademark 2 is to the left an 3 to the right, but for all I know it could be something else.
Do you guys know how this thing should go back together? I would really appreciate some ideas here. Thanks in advance.
