Reeves Drive Question
I have a question about an older lathe with a Reeves Drive (J-Line). This
is an older lathe that has not seen use for some time. The manual says not
to shift it without the motor running. If you take the belts off is it okay
to shift it then? I want to get the Reeves drive shifting smoothly before
putting it under power. I am guessing they say not to shift while not under
power due to the load put on it by shifting it. Thanks!
