Default warner swazey screw machine 1ab or 1ac cross slides problems

hope some body can help me with this problem. when i am setting up
a job in hand mode and i call for a cross slide , the cross slide
will jump forward all the way to center and cause a crash. then the
cross slides jump time and the cross slides will not move at all.
reseting the timing gears in the side panel does not seem to help.
any body got any ideas?


Well, it surely sounds like your cross slide lead screw and/or nut are extremely
badly worn. My idea is to, well, fix them.
