It amases me the different variations of these ZX45's.
There are many other sellers puting their name and colour on these machines.
Nice machines but limited on speed and durability.
If not R8 option they are MT3 100%. I looked round for 4 years trying to get an R8 spindle.
Yes have seen spindle lock as piccied and on the left side of head, even on same machine from Chester.
Likewise the beds are different, mine has 4 slots and could be longer with an actual 23 3/4" travel.
Also winder for elevation, some are on the right like mine. Having to use since my powered head gearbox packed up 6 months ago.
