Default Clausing lathe leaking oil...

What a job Wes - Looks like it was working before it
was working!

I don't have your model Clausing. I have a 6903.

Is it leaking from your lead screw output? Do you have a parts manual showing a depiction
of your gearbox? If so, draw a line across the full level point and anything under oil
that exits the case is a suspect.

clausing_lathe_and_mill on yahoo groups might be your best place to look. Webb is a
wealth of information, he used to work for a dealer that actually fixed machinery, iirc.
