Gerry,
Yours is definitely the updated version of mine.
For a start, they have swapped the apron about to the more civilised UK preferred edition, where the main feed handle is not in the way of hot swarf coming from the cutting tool and they have an access door in the box below the tailstock. I can only access mine from the back, and because my lathe is back to the wall, I have completely disconnected the suds pump as I would need to pull the heavy lathe out to clean it out. Plus of course, you have the heavily modded tailstock ram.
Whereas yours, I think, comes with a 9 speed spindle, mine has an extra couple of motor and gearbox sheaves, which gives my machine 18 speeds.
You have mounted your read head in exactly the same position as my one that came as factory fitted, but what they have done on mine is to put in a large cap screw underneath it, that protrudes out, and acts as a stop for the tailstock, to prevent it crunching into the DRO head when it is slid forwards.
When I fine adjusted my brake, I set the micro switch up so that the motor was turned off a fraction before the brake came into action. Ensuring there was never any chance of having the motor power on when the brake was applied. This also allows me to turn the motor off from the brake pedal by just a tiny touch, and if I want it, the brake by any further movement.
The very latest of these machines have gone from a d14 to a d15 mount, with a much larger spindle and thru hole, plus variable speed and larger tailstock sizes.
