Hi Alex That type of clutch can be difficult to adjust if the drum inside the cone pulley is worn. Did you dismantle it or was it already in bits when you received it? You should find the lathe serial number on the vertical face of the rear (not front) shear at the tailstock end.

I bought it in its dismantled condition. It has been fun assembling it, and not too difficult until it departed from the manual!! Salamanda has helpful offered to send me a copy of the relevant pages from the original manual, so hopefully I should be OK now. 'Alex' wrote in message news.8cwy.googlegro ups.com.

I have a 1958 super 7 with the same clutch. My manual doesn't cover the clutch in any detail, but myford did supply me with photocopies of the relevant pages from a different version of the manual, which included exploded clutch daigrams. I don't have the pages to hand at present, so it will be quicker to (nicely) ask Myford for a photocopy.
I did buy a few spares at the same time, so they didn't make any charge for the copies. Thanks Jason. 'jason' wrote in message news:[email protected].

Thanks Jason Sorry, forgot to mention the serial number. My machine doesn't have any serial number that I have managed to find either - It isn't stamped on the bed in any of the normal places.
On my machine everything is pristine, as the machine was only used between 1958 and 62 before the owner died. I bought the machine from his elderly son, who never used it in 40+ years, so I honestly think it hasn't ben reground. Thanks Jason.
