Hello Everyone,
Has anyone ever worked on the powerfeed controls of a 207MK? I'm having trouble getting to the internals of the feed selector, and clutch. My assumption was that one of the plates would give access to the unit from the top or side, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I'm guessing either the entire front unit comes off in one piece, or somehow everything is accessible through the opening when the controls are removed. My fear is that by taking it off that way I'll be cluttering the floor with a bunch of loose parts. Anyone with a diagram, or experience with this mill help would be appreciated.
We're just cutting a full length keyway. Power feed stopped 9' into a 12' shaft with the table somewhere in the middle. Three days later when I went to troubleshoot it, the powerfeed worked fine making me think it must be a clutch issue . About 8' or so into the next shaft the table would not start feeding after resetting. I have removed the table, and you can stop the feed gear with your fingers, same thing with the shaft that drives it on the side of the saddle. All rapid feed and manual feeds still work fine. .
Thanks,
Matt
