16" South Bend Precision Toolroom Lathe
(Circa 1958)
For Machines Mfg. Since 3/11 EVS Toolroom Lathe w/DRO
INTRODUCTION
About This Machine
Foreword
"The screw cutting engine lathe is the oldest and
most important of machine tools and from it all
other machine tools have been developed. It was
the lathe that made possible the building of the
steamboat, the locomotive, the electric motor, the
automobile and all kinds of machinery used in
industry. Without the lathe our great industrial
progress of the last century would have been
impossible." —How To Run a Lathe, 15th
Edition, South Bend Lathe.
The lathe represented in this manual is a
modern day version of the screw cutting lathes
that trace their roots back to the 1700's, which
were themselves technological improvements of
the bow lathe that can be traced back thousands
of years to the ancient Egyptians.
Now, almost 300 years later, these modern
"screw cutting" lathes are not just a piece of
refined machinery, but a culmination of human
ingenuity and knowledge embodied into the
design and synergy of thousands of interworking
parts—some of which represent the life's work
and dreams of many inventors, mechanical
engineers, and world-class machinists—including
the likes of Leonardo da Vinci, Henry Maudsley,
and the founders of South Bend Lathe, John and
Miles O'Brien.
And now the torch is passed to you—to take
the oldest and most important type of machine
tool—and carry on the tradition. As the operator
of a South Bend Lathe, you now join the ranks
of some very famous and important customers,
such as Henry Ford, who used the machines he
purchased to help him change the world.
Capabilities
These EVS Toolroom Lathes are built for daily
use in a busy industrial setting. Loaded with
many nice features and high-precision parts,
these lathes excel at making fine tools, dies,
thread gauges, jigs, and precision test gauges—
however, they are by no means delicate. Thick
castings, heavy weight, and quality construction
throughout provide the necessary brawn for
demanding production and manufacturing tasks.
Features
As the name implies, these lathes feature EVS
(Electronic Variable Speed) spindle control,
that allows the operator to quickly adjust the
spindle speed. One of four spindle speed ranges
is selected with the speed range lever, then the
exact speed within that range is chosen with the
spindle speed dial. The current spindle speed
is displayed with the digital tachometer on the
control panel.
The beds of these lathes are constructed with
Meehanite castings that are hardened and
precision-ground in the traditional 3-V-way
prismatic design—long used on South Bend
Lathes for its accuracy, durability, and rigidity.
The headstock features quick-change gear levers
and the carriage includes an adjustable clutch
that disables automatic carriage feed when it
contacts the included feed stop or in the event of
a crash..
To further ensure a high degree of accuracy,
these lathes are equipped with high-quality
spindle bearings and a Fagor 2-Axis DRO. The
spindles are D1-8 camlock with an MT#7 taper
and 3.15" bore. The tailstock quills have an
MT#5 taper and offer 6.5" of travel.
The headstock is equipped with a pressurized
oiling system that pre-lubricates the bearings
and gears before the spindle starts. This
guarantees that the headstock is properly
lubricated in all start-up conditions, including
high-load/low-speed operations.
Finally, these EVS toolroom lathes are packed
with a premium Yaskawa Inverter, AllenBradley contactors, thermal relays, and fuse
system. Also included are a complete coolant
system, an easy-to-clean chip drawer, one-shot
way lubrication system, ball bearing steady
rest and brass-tipped follow rest, adjustable
work lamp, foot brake, and automatic feeding
capabilities for both the X- and Y-axis.

Attempting difficult
For Machines Mfg. Since 3/11 EVS Toolroom Lathe w/DRO
SAFETY
Additional Metal Lathe Safety
Clearing Chips. Metal chips can easily cut bare
skin—even through a piece of cloth. Avoid
clearing chips by hand or with a rag.Use a
brush or vacuum to clear metal chips.
Chuck Key Safety. A chuck key left in the chuck
can become a deadly projectile when the
spindle is started. Always remove the chuck
key after using it. Develop a habit of not
taking your hand off of a chuck key unless it
is away from the machine.
Tool Selection. Cutting with an incorrect or
dull tool increases the risk of accidental
injury due to the extra force required for
the operation, which increases the risk of
breaking or dislodging components that
can cause small shards of metal to become
dangerous projectiles. Always select the
right cutter for the job and make sure it is
sharp. A correct, sharp tool decreases strain
and provides a better finish.
Securing Workpiece. An improperly secured
workpiece can fly off the lathe spindle with
deadly force, which can result in a severe
impact injury. Make sure the workpiece is
properly secured in the chuck or faceplate
before starting the lathe.
Speed Rates. Operating the lathe at the wrong
speed can cause nearby parts to break or the
workpiece to come loose, which will result in
dangerous projectiles that could cause severe
impact injuries. Large or non-concentric
workpieces must be turned at slow speeds.
Always use the appropriate feed and speed
rates.
Stopping Spindle by Hand. Stopping the spindle
by putting your hand on the workpiece
or chuck creates an extreme risk of
entanglement, impact, crushing, friction, or
cutting hazards. Never attempt to slow or
stop the lathe spindle with your hand. Allow
the spindle to come to a stop on its own or
use the brake.
Crashes. Aggressively driving the cutting tool
or other lathe components into the chuck
may cause an explosion of metal fragments,
which can result in severe impact injuries
and major damage to the lathe. Reduce this
risk by releasing automatic feeds after use,
not leaving lathe unattended, and checking
clearances before starting the lathe.
Make sure no part of the tool, tool holder,
compound rest, cross slide, or carriage will
contact the chuck during operation.
Chucks. Chucks are very heavy and difficult to
grasp, which can lead to crushed fingers or
hands if mishandled. Get assistance when
handling chucks to reduce this risk. Protect
your hands and the precision-ground ways
by using a chuck cradle or piece of plywood
over the ways of the lathe when servicing
chucks. Use lifting devices when necessary.
Safe Clearances. Workpieces that crash into
other components on the lathe may throw
dangerous projectiles in all directions,
leading to impact injury and damaged
equipment. Before starting the spindle,
make sure the workpiece has adequate
clearance by hand-rotating it through its
entire range of motion. Also, check the tool
and tool post clearance, chuck clearance, and
saddle clearance.
Long Stock Safety. Long stock can whip violently
if not properly supported, causing serious
impact injury and damage to the lathe.
Reduce this risk by supporting any stock
that extends from the chuck/headstock more
than three times its own diameter. Always
turn long stock at slow speeds.
Coolant Safety. Coolant is a very poisonous
biohazard that can cause personal injury
from skin contact alone. Incorrectly
positioned coolant nozzles can splash on
the operator or the floor, resulting in an
exposure or slipping hazard. To decrease
your risk, change coolant regularly and
position the nozzle where it will not splash
or end up on the floor.

SAFETY
Additional Chuck Safety
For Machines Mfg. Since 3/11
Entanglement. Entanglement with a rotating
chuck can lead to death, amputation, broken
bones, or other serious injury. Never attempt
to slow or stop the lathe chuck by hand,
and always roll up long sleeves, tie back
long hair, and remove any jewelry or loose
apparel BEFORE operating.
Using Correct Equipment. Many workpieces can
only be safely turned in a lathe if additional
support equipment, such as a tailstock or
steady rest, is used. If the operation is too
hazardous to be completed with the lathe or
existing equipment, the operator must have
enough experience to know when to use a
different machine or find a safer way.
Proper Maintenance.
maintained and lubricated to achieve
maximum clamping force and withstand
the rigors of centrifugal force. To reduce
the risk of a thrown workpiece, follow all
maintenance intervals and instructions in
this document.
Chuck Spindle Speed Rating. Chucks are rated
for their safe maximum spindle speed. If
chucks are used with a higher spindle speed
than they are rated for, they may fail during
operation and throw the workpiece or chuck
parts at the operator or bystanders, causing
severe impact injuries. Never use a spindle
speed faster than the maximum chuck speed
rating.
All chucks must be properly
Chuck Capacity. Avoid exceeding the capacity
of the chuck by clamping an oversized
workpiece. If the workpiece is too large to
safely clamp with the chuck, use a faceplate
or a larger chuck if possible. Otherwise, the
workpiece could be thrown from the lathe
during operation, resulting in serious impact
injury or death.
Clamping Force. Inadequate clamping force
can lead to the workpiece being thrown
from the chuck and striking the operator
or bystanders. Maximum clamping force
is achieved when the chuck is properly
maintained and lubricated, all jaws are
fully engaged with the workpiece, and the
maximum chuck clamping diameter is not
exceeded.
Trained Operators Only. Using a chuck
incorrectly can result in workpieces coming
loose at high speeds and striking the
operator or bystanders with deadly force.
To reduce the risk of this hazard, read
and understand this document and seek
additional training from an experienced
chuck user before using a chuck.
Disconnect Power. Serious entanglement or
impact injuries could occur if the lathe is
started while you are adjusting, servicing, or
installing the chuck. Always disconnect the
lathe from power before performing these
procedures.

Serious injury could occur if you connect
the machine to power before completing the
setup process. DO NOT connect to power until
instructed later in this manual.
Full-Load Current Rating
The full-load current rating is the amperage
a machine draws at 100% of the rated output
power. On machines with multiple motors, this is
the amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum
of all motors and electrical devices that might
operate at one time during normal operations.
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient
length of time, damage, overheating, or fire may
result—especially if connected to an undersized
circuit. To reduce the risk of these hazards,
avoid overloading the machine during operation
and make sure it is connected to a power supply
circuit that meets the requirements in the
following section.

Grounding Requirements
This machine must be grounded! In the event
of certain types of malfunctions or breakdowns,
grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current in order to reduce the risk of
electric shock.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The
wire with green insulation (with or without
yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding
wire. If repair or replacement of the power cord
is necessary, do not connect the equipmentgrounding wire to a live (current carrying)
terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if you do not understand these
grounding requirements, or if you are in doubt
about whether the machine is properly grounded.
If you ever notice that a cord is damaged or
worn, disconnect it from power, and immediately
replace it with a new one.
440V Operation
As specified in the Circuit Requirements
section on the previous page, these machines
must be hardwired to the power source, using a
locking switch (see Figure 10).
These machines must also be connected to a

PREPARATION
Cleaning & Protecting
The unpainted surfaces are coated at the factory
with a heavy-duty rust preventative that
prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.
The benefit of this rust preventative is that it
works very well. The downside is that it can be
time-consuming to thoroughly remove.
Be patient and do a careful job when cleaning
and removing the rust preventative. The time
you spend doing this will reward you with
smooth-sliding parts and a better appreciation
for the proper care of the unpainted surfaces.
lthough there are many ways to successfully
remove the rust preventative, we have cleaned
thousands of machines and found the following
process to be the best balance between efficiency
and minimized exposure to toxic fumes or
chemicals.
Before cleaning, gather the following:
s $ISPOSABLErags
s #LEANERDEGREASER (certain citrus-based
degreasers work extremely well and they
have non-toxic fumes)
s 3AFETYGLASSESDISPOSABLEGLOVES
Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as
acetone or brake parts cleaner that may
damage painted surfaces. Always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions when using any
type of cleaning product.
Basic steps for removing rust preventative:
1. Put on safety glasses and disposable gloves.
2. #OATALLSURFACESTHATHAVERUSTPREVENTATIVE
with a liberal amount of your cleaner or
degreaser and let them soak for a few
minutes.
3. Wipe off the surfaces. If your cleaner or
degreaser is effective, the rust preventative
will wipe off easily.
Many cleaning solvents are
toxic if inhaled. Minimize
your risk by only using
these products in a well
ventilated area.
Note: Automotive degreasers, mineral spirits, or
7$sCANBEUSEDTOREMOVERUSTPREVENTATIVE
Before using these products, though, test them
on an inconspicuous area of a painted surface to
make sure they will not damage it.
Gasoline and petroleum
products have low flash
GAS
points and can explode
or cause fire if used for
cleaning. Avoid using these
products to remove rust
preventative.
Note: To clean off thick coats of rust preventative
on flat surfaces, such as beds or tables, use
A0,!34)#PAINTSCRAPERTOSCRAPEOFFTHE
majority of the coating before wiping it off
WITHYOURRAG$ONOTUSEAMETALSCRAPEROR
it may scratch the surface.)
4. Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,
then coat all unpainted surfaces with a
quality metal protectant or light oil to
prevent rust.
Remove the end gear cover and end gears,
and use a stiff brush with mineral spirits
to clean the rust preventative from the
gears and shafts. DO NOT get any cleaner
or rust preventative on the V-belts, as it
could damage them or make them slip
during operations. If the belts do become
contaminated, replace them.

conditions. Extreme conditions for this type
of machinery are generally those where the
ambient temperature is outside the range of 41°–
104°F; the relative humidity is outside the range
of 20–95% (non-condensing); or the environment
is subject to vibration, shocks, or bumps.
Electrical Installation
Place this machine near an existing power
source. Make sure all power cords are protected
from traffic, material handling, moisture,
chemicals, or other hazards. Make sure to leave
access to a means of disconnecting the power
source or engaging a lockout/tagout device.
Weight Load
Refer to the Machine Specifications for the
weight of your machine. Make sure that the
surface upon which the machine is placed will
bear the weight of the machine, additional
equipment that may be installed on the machine,
and the heaviest workpiece that will be used.
Additionally, consider the weight of the operator
and any dynamic loading that may occur when
operating the machine.
Space Allocation
Consider the largest size of workpiece that will
be processed through this machine and provide
enough space around the machine for adequate
operator material handling or the installation
of auxiliary equipment. With permanent
installations, leave enough space around
the machine to open or remove doors/covers
as required by the maintenance and service
described in this manual.
Lighting
Lighting around the machine must be adequate
enough that operations can be performed
safely. Shadows, glare, or strobe effects that
may distract or impede the operator must be
eliminated.

end of the bed as shown in Figure 14.
This will keep the lifting straps away from
the leadscrew, feed rod, and spindle rod to
prevent bending them during lifting.

This machine and its parts are heavy! Serious
personal injury may occur if safe moving
methods are not used. To reduce the risk of a
lifting or dropping injury, ask others for help,
and use power equipment and guide rods.
Do not attempt to lift or move this lathe without
using the proper lifting equipment (such as
forklift or crane) or the necessary assistance from
other people. Each piece of lifting equipment
must be rated for at least 25% more than the
shipping weight of your lathe to support dynamic
loads that may be applied while lifting. Refer to
Things You'll Need on Page 21 for details.
To lift and move the lathe:
1. Remove the shipping crate top and sides,
then remove the small components from the
shipping pallet.
2. Move the lathe to its prepared location while
it is still attached to the shipping pallet.

7. At each end of the lathe, have assistants
connect guide rods to safely keep the lathe
from swaying or tipping during lifting.
8. Raise the lathe a couple of inches and check
the balance of the load.
— If the load is not safely balanced,
immediately lower the lathe and resolve
the issue before attempting to lift it
again.
9. Raise the lathe enough to clear the shipping
pallet, carefully remove the pallet, then
lower the lathe into position.

Leveling & Mounting
You must level your machine and either use
the included foot pads and leveling hardware or
bolt and shim your lathe to the floor. Because
mounting your lathe to the floor with permanent
hardware is an optional step and floor materials
may vary, floor mounting hardware is not
included.
Leveling
For accurate turning results and to prevent
warping the cast iron bed and ways, the lathe
bedways MUST be leveled from side-to-side
and from front-to-back on both ends.
Re-check the bedways 24 hours after
installation, two weeks after that, and then
annually to make sure they remain level.
Leveling machinery helps precision components,
such as bedways, remain straight and flat during
the lifespan of the machine. Components on a
machine that is not level may slowly twist due to
the dynamic loads placed on the machine during
operation.
For best results, use a precision level that
is at least 12" long and sensitive enough to
show a distinct movement when a 0.003" shim
(approximately the thickness of one sheet of
standard newspaper) is placed under one end of
the level.
See the figure below for an example of a high
precision level.
