Hi:

Some folks have made a hand crank for the spindle, make thread cutting easier, but slower. It should be easy to make one, just thread it M12x1 to replace the spindle nut. Do provide a way of clamping the thread so backing up does not loosen the spindle. I made this hand crank for a small drill press to make tapping easier:
