    Unhappy Is anyone have a Myford ML8 Lathe manual ?

    I just purchased a secondhand Myford ML8 Lathe but missing the manual. Now the head stock a bit out of centre. Is anyone can help me or send me a maintenance manual?

    the machine got away from me in the previous post!
    I am the proud owner of an ML8 which is now in my "vintage collection" (haha) but has done sterling service for many years. Apart form anything else it still looks the part and has never let me down. I was lucky enough to "inherit" mine from one careful owner and it came with all the original paperwork and manuals.
    Although the ML8 is no longer available, parts and advice are still available from the company, and I suggest you start there. http://www.myford.com/
    Failing that I can let you have a copy of the plans I have, which includes a paragraph on "Bearing Adjustment", but you really need the diagram to make sense of it.
