To avoid overloading the drive, a
safety slip clutch is fitted in the idler pulley.
Overloading the drive at slower speeds (rattling
noise) means the depth of cut is too deep and
should be reduced.

proper combination of gears and settings. When
cutting inch threads, the half nut and threading
dial are used to thread in a conventional manner.

The thread dial cannot be utilized.
Set the machine up for the desired thread pitch.
Start the machine and engage the half nut. When
the tool reaches the workpiece, it will cut the ini-
tial threading pass. When the tool reaches the
end of the cut, stop the machine by turning the
motor off and at the same time back the tool out
of the workpiece so that it clears the thread.

disengage the half nut lever. Reverse the
motor direction to allow the cutting tool to traverse
back to the starting point. Repeat these steps
until you have obtained the desired results.
