In article , DoN. Nichols says...

Perhaps he can check to see whether there *is* a lockout for the
half-nuts when the power feeds is engaged on his. Yours may have been
destroyed at the same time that the leadscrew bracket was damaged.

If there was none from the factory (and I will check mine to see if
there ever was a trace of what you described) on mine, I doubt
there is one on his, as his machine has a lower serial number than
mine.
