Good Afternoon

Just had one of my engineers look at a current version of the 920 Lathe, this is the current wiring;

depending on the age of the lathe, if capacitors are fitted on the motor then the wiring config is a s follows:

from rotary switch term 4 to W12 on motor term 12 to U1 on motor term 8 to V1 on motor term 10 to U2 on motor

if capacitors are not fitted to the motor - this is an older machine, where the capacitors where mounted in the headstock casting of the Lathe. If this is the case it might be easier to change the motor to one that is fitted with capacitiors.

With reference to the missing main cable, i would as you to phone us on

Wow!

I'm not a Chester customer myself, but that sort of thing doesn't half help build a good impression!

I have had some dealings with Chester in the past few weeks gaining help with rebuilding a 920 lathe I have had given.

I have to say that I have found the people I have dealt with excellent...

I have been most impressed with the service given and would like to record my thanks.
