Apron
One piece box construction, double bearing type. All gearing S.A.E. 1045 steel. Quick acting independent levers operate cross and longitudinal feeds. Clutch adjustment made by removing
guard and adjusting nuts on end of clutch shaft. Interlocking mechanism prevents engaging feeds and threads at the same time. Rack pinion S.A.E. 3250 hardened steel. All bearings in apron anti-friction construction. Gears and bearings automatically oiledsec illustration below.

Leadscrew and Feed Rod
Leadscrew is ground S.A.E. 1040 steel mounted in radial ball bearings, with hardened steel and bronze washers for thrust. Separate leadscrew and feed rod construction; leadscrew does not
rotate when using feed rod, and vice versa. Safety interlock prevents engagement of both feed rod and the leadscrew at the same time.
Leadscrew Reverse Mechanism
Reverse to carriage is furnished for either feeding or threading without reversing the direction of rotation of lathe spindle. Re verse lever is located at right hand side of apron and adjustable stops provide for automatically stopping carriage for feeding or threading in either direction at any predetermined point.
Quick Change Gear Mechanism
A self contained unit rigidly bolted and dowellcd to front of bed and providing 49 changes of feeds and threads, see index plate. Gears are steel accurately cut with shafts mounted on anti-friction bearings. Reservoir with
provides lubrication for all bearings.

Cross Feed Screw
S.A.E. 6150 chrome Vanadium steel heat treated to Rockwell C36-40, with two direction ball thrust. Cross slide is provided with micrometer chasing stop for regulating depth of cut. This construction permits withdrawing tool up to approximately three revolutions of the cross feed screw and running it in again to stop without changing the micrometer reading.
Tailstock
Massive two bolt type with lateral adjustment for taper turning. Body of tailstock is offset to permit setting compound rest parallel.-,
to bed. Spindle which is graduated is high manganese steel and
provided with improved type of binder with equalizing action. One movement forward or back, of lever at top of barrel, locks or releases spindle without affecting alignment.

Gear Finishing
Below is shown closeup view of spur gear being shaved on Fellows Gear Finishing Machine. All headstock gears are finished by this method for quiet, efficient operation.
Spindle bearings are TIMKEN bearing mounting, thrust adjustment taken on two front bear
ings, rear bearings mounted in floating sleeve to compensate for slight variations in spindle and housing resulting from temperature changes. Phantom drawing below clearly illus-
