Is it only when using a steady rest that this happens? You probably need to check the amps.

The motor on my LMS 7x16 cuts out turning down 360 brass when using a steady rest with a HSS tool. The 7" 1.25" brass rod is centered in my 4-jaw cuck to 0.005" and the Steady Rest is 2.25" back from the end. I'm using reversed Emery Cloth under the brass points with liberal and frequent oilling. The rod turns by hand w/o much friction. Cuts deeper than 0.010" stall the motor when the lead screw is engaged.
?
Thoughts appreciated!
