Atlas Lathe Timken Bearings
I have an Atlas metal lathe w/ 10" swing -- quick change gearing --
48" bed, etc. Timken bearings are installed. PROBLEM: The chuck and shaft can be lifted some small fraction of an inch (many hundreds of an inch..). Does anybody know if the bearings can be tightened? Is this adjustable or fixable? Do the bearings and or shaft need to be replaced? TIA Teddy |
