Hi everyone, I just signed up and I have a fresh question for you boffs...
I just got my harrison m300 metric today and the ammount of play in the crossslide is almost 2 inches on the dial! I tried to take up the adjustment but i think its far too gone.
I have uploaded some high resolution images for you to see.
the leascrew, look at how thin the threads are half way down.

and the nuts, note how sharp the threads are, theres not much meat left on them.
