    Jiangdong Machine tool Turret Milling Machine HX30 info required

    I now have a Jiangdong HX30 milling machine and have no information about it.

    Quill fit?

    I am rebuilding a 1988 Series I mill with a 2J head. When I came to put the quill back into the main casting, the fit is very tight, even with a light oiling. It is tight enough that the clock spring is almost not necessary. How tight should the quill fit? Neil

    Information/manual needed for Clausing 4020 Surface Grinder

    I now own a Clausing 4020 Surface Grinder and need some help getting a manual or instructions on how to operate it. I have found a couple of manuals for sale online but they want $60 for it. I am hoping to spend money on grinding wheels not manuals. Any help would be appreciated. Neil

    New Clausing 4020 SG Owner....

    I now own a Clausing 4020 Surface Grinder that I "accidentally" won on fleabay. The problem is.... I have no idea how it works (other than conceptually) or a manual to look at. So any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Neil
