OK to the age of your Lot 4 Dalton the end door tells me it was built after 1922 as that is when Dalton started using that door on the Lot 5 lathe that came out that year.? Check your patent tag and see if it has a 1922 patent date.? The patent has nothing to do with your lathe rather the patent was for the special end door hinge used on the TL pattern makers lathe that came out also about the same time as the Lot 5 lathe.? The extra gears you show are not for your Dalton I have no idea of what they would go to.

I was told this is a 1917, the saddle and crosslide and everything move smoothly and seem to be not heavily worn.? There is not alot of backlash on the handles and there is no wear grooves in the beginning of the bed. it runs and comes with a handful of the change gears which i guess are impossible to find anywhere!! 3-jaw chuck operates smoothly.
