CQ6230A-1 lathe, Chester Crusader and other Chinese lathes, info.
« on: September 14, 2009, 11:59:43 PM »
I have just been reviewing the information I have deduced from my CQ6230A-1 lathe and compiled this useful(?) table.

Here the quick change gearbox settings sorted for ratio:

Starting with the finest, i.e. slowest feed rate..
B5
B1
C5
D5
C1
B4
D1
A5
B3
C4
A1
D3
D2
E1
A4
A3
E4
E2

There are a few duplicates which I skipped.

Nice one John, I will get them printed out and stuck on the wall (if I can find a few square inches of space).

I suppose if I was being really clever I would have factored in the 'I' and 'II' levers! :scratch:
