Hardinge HC problem
I brought that Hardinge HC home (the one that I advertised here) and
while it seems mostly complete, I seem to have a problem or a misunderstanding. The issue is that of speed control. It has a speed control with a variable speed pulley. When I powered the lathe, it would run. Then I started messing with speed control handle and slowed the lathe down, which it did. The speed was adjusting in ways that seemed odd, as in, possibly it was increasing if I put that handle in center position. Then, as of now, the speed control stopped moving that adjuster altogether. If I move that speed control handle all the way to the left, the lathe just stops. I cannot yet explain this weird behavior and I am sure that I am missing something. Since there are different versions of HC floating around, here's a webpage with many pictures: http://igor.chudov.com/tmp/Hardinge-HC/ Also if anyone has a PDF manual of a Hardinge HC, I would love to get a copy, and I will place it on my manuals website as well. -- Due to extreme spam originating from Google Groups, and their inattention to spammers, I and many others block all articles originating from Google Groups. If you want your postings to be seen by more readers you will need to find a different means of posting on Usenet. http://improve-usenet.org/ |

Hardinge HC problem
Gunner and Jon, thanks. I figured it out. The lathe was wired
incorrectly, so that forward became reverse. As a result, the speed adjusting nut went the wrong way, hit a safety stop and stopped operating due to that. I found an instruction sheet inside that told me what to do (kill power to machine and manually back off the screw). Now as far as I can tell, everything works great. i On 2009-03-01, Gunner Asch wrote: On Sat, 28 Feb 2009 17:48:48 -0600, Ignoramus7092 wrote: Since there are different versions of HC floating around, here's a webpage with many pictures: http://igor.chudov.com/tmp/Hardinge-HC/ Also if anyone has a PDF manual of a Hardinge HC, I would love to get a copy, and I will place it on my manuals website as well.

Hardinge HC problem
....
Notice the collets/bushings go inside of the 5/8" tool holder. First thing you do is make up multiples of the common sizes, 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, 5/16, 7/16, 3/8, etc etc. Make up about 4 of each. Simple job using any handy bar stock. Make up 50 blanks, undrilled, uncut. A job easily done on the Chucker. Turn, face, knurl if you like, then cut off, then go on to the next one. All from a bar. Helps you get to know your lathe too.. As you need em, drill and bore em, then slot em, stamp em with size and put em in a rack. Unless you are rich and want to buy a complete set. Instead of drill bushings, I use a Brookfield drill holder. Adjustable for all size drills. I do have drill bushings for a few very common sizes. http://cgi.ebay.com/3-Hardinge-Brook...7C240%3A13 18 Like all machines, you can easily spend more on tooling than you did on the lathe. Karl |
