what do the lube rings look like dont think i have those so the max rpm of that shaft is 400 rpm what is the max the lathe can run im used to using carbide not hss on machining metal so this is a little new to me using a 1750 motor so i would have to really step it down to that shaft to get it slow enouph?

The bearing block can be mounted in the mounting bracket in three different positions.? Second there was always a shaft collar used to keep the shaft positioned in the two bearing blocks.? If you read my other post on this subject there is a metal ring that dropped into the slot and rides on the shaft bringing lube oil up from the reservoir below the shaft. This is a plain bearing? meaning the shaft rides right on the cast iron of the bearing block.? Given the use of he lube ring and oil these things will last for a very long time.? Also remember that the countershaft that rides in these bearings blocks never turns more than 400 rpm. ? Sent from for Windows 10 ? From: probodybuilder21 via groups.io
