    Default Manual for Hafco AL340G lathe

    Anyone know where I can download a manual for the AL340G? I've just bought the lathe 2nd hand and I'm not clear on how to change the screw cutting gears.

    Thanks

    Does it still have the thread cutting data plate attached,the information on how to arrange the gear train for specific threads should be on it.

    Can you contact the seller and ask.

    Have you contacted H/F.

    Go to the Grizzly tool site and see if you can locate a similar lathe from there catolouge,a lot but not all of there machines descriptions have a Manual/Spares download.

    I have the AL336 and bought this new with a manual. If you are looking for something to guide you in using your lathe and if it is like my manual.... forget it.
    All the manual will assist you with is a parts list and lubrication points.
