Hi Mike,

I have not been able to disassemble  the end of my collet closer. Martin Oliver has had his apart...

Interesting that the 5LZ spindle is native MT4. The 4L and 4LV are native 358E

 MY 5LZ was only available as 4 mt to special order according  to the  information in the manual .

RotarySMP:
How many chuck backing plates do you have? I only have one. Martin did a group order but the CNC shop he contracted to make us a batch let us down.

The 5LZ native backing plates have an locking collar to clamp to the spindle to stop the chuck unscrewing don't they?

 My spindle is din 3 and I can buy bison back plates from rotagrip .The lathe came with 3 and 4 jaw chuck and 1 spare back plate.
The 3 jaw chuck is a Forkardt F125 chuck and a fantastic piece of kit , When I have a bit of time I will photograph it .Its the only 3 jaw chuck that I have ever seen where the jaws are reversable  same as a 4 jaw chuck 
Does anyone have the retractable tool holder for screwcutting as i would like to know how they work ?  Mike
