operating position. Dials shall be permanently and legibly engraved or etched on a non-glare background.
3.3.8
Plates. All words on instruction and indicating plates shall be in the English language. Characters shall be
engraved, etched, embossed or stamped in boldface on a contrasting background.
3.3.9
Gears. All gears shall be machined from a material suitable for the intended purpose. All headstock spindle
drive train gears shall be heat treated by a process that will impart the hardness and toughness that will enable
the gear train to transmit full rated torque of the drive motor without gear damage, failure or premature wear.
3.4 Components. The components for the lathe shall conform to the following requirements.
3.4.1
Lathe. The lathe shall consist essentially of a cabinet mounted bed,a variable speed headstock, variable feed
carriage and cross slide, quick change threading gear box, and tailstock.
3.4.1.1
Bed and base. The bed shall be a stress relieved ferrous casting designed to retain accurate way
alignment. All bed way surfaces which support and guide the carriage shall have a hardness not less
than Rockwell C-50. Provision shall be made for using a taper attachment. The base shall be heavy
gage steel weldment or a casting providing rigid support for the lathe, and enclosing the spindle
drive motor and mechanism. The top of the base shall have a chip and coolant pan designed to
drain coolant into a sump. The base shall be provided with means for securing the machine on a
foundation.
3.4.1.2
Headstock. The headstock shall be a variable speed belt driven unit. The variable spindle speeds
shall be obtained by an electric motor driven variable speed unit. The spindle drive motor and
associated drive mechanism shall be enclosed by the headstock and machine base. Speed selections
shall be made by suitable controls, such as push buttons, on the headstock and a spindle speed
indicator showing actual revolutions per minute. Speed adjustment shall be possible while cutting
to obtain optimum feed/speed ratio under various cutting conditions. Means shall be provided to
maintain proper belt tension. Provision shall be made for changing spindle drive belts without
removing the spindle or losing bearing adjustment. A quick acting spindle brake shall be provided.
The headstock spindle shall be the type normally provided by the builder, designed for using drawin collets, chucks and face plates. The threaded nose spindle shall be mounted in ball or roller
bearings, and be operable in both forward and reverse directions of rotation. The spindle shall have
Page 10 of 19
means for manual rotation and for locking during set-up. The drive unit shall be protected by an
interlock to prevent power application while the spindle is locked
3.4.1.3
Carriage. The carriage, cross slide and compound slide shall be accurately fitted to mating slide
ways and shall have tapered gibs to adjust for wear, The carriage and cross slide shall be operated
