Clausing lathe leaking oil...
My VS-13 Clausing lathe is leaking oil out of the gearbox down into the
chip tray, and it's doing it pretty quickly. Oil level goes from center of the sight glass down to not being seen in less than three days (~ 1/2 pint of oil). It's not readily apparent to me where the leak is originating from even though i've cleaned it, looked for weeping, oil trail, etc. Any thoughts on the most popular spots for gearbox leaks with these characteristics? Thanks! --Joel -- remove "xxxnospamxxx" to reach me |
