Hello Richard
The small reversing shaft uses the 45 tooth gear.
For right hand twist on the main lead screw I assemble the 45T then the
big washer, then the drive gear I will be using, 60T, then another flat
washer and then set it all tight with the Allen screw and washers or handle.
When you add the reversing shaft, it should have a 45T and a sleeve.
Leave the 45T in place and swap the sleeve over to the lead screw and
move everything except the 45T from the lead over to the reversing gear.
Now mesh the 2-45T gears together and tighten the 2 bracket screws on
the reversing assembly.
Loosen the screw on the pivot arm that will allow the duplex gear to
swing away from the drive/reversing gear assembly.
Loosen the reversing gear pivot and swing the reversing gear assembly
down as far as it will go.
Adjust the duplex gear and tension it back into the drive gear and you
will be ready to go.
It is always better to make the reverse cut starting from the head stock
and cutting the tail stock direction.
Hope this helps
Mike OK

Hi All and especially Mike who has a wood chuck
I am stuck my head just won't work today.
I am doing a 6 inch spiral and want to turn it into a pineapple shape.
i:e 240/40 on spindle and 240 driving a 60T
I have completed the clockwise part and am now stuck.
How do I set the gears for the anti-clockwise part???
What gears go on the leadscrew and what go on the lay / reverse shaft
assembly?
Thanks
Richard
