Description: This manual covers the operation and Parts  of South Bend Lathes Series O, N, R, T & Junior.   This is a manual that was put together as a special request from a customer.  It includes the 39th edition of South Bends "How to Run a Lathe" and the Parts List No. 17-C for the above lathes.  The operation part is a reproduction of the manual that was available when a South Bend Lathe was purchased.  It is a must have manual for not only those with South Bend lathes, but for any lathe owner. It starts out with an interesting history of the lathe.  It gives instructions on setting up and leveling your lathe and  how each part of the lathe operates.  There are chapters on "Lathe Tools & Their Applications" , "How to Take Accurate Measurements" , "Plain Turning (Work Between Centers)" , "Chuck Work" , "Taper Turning and Boring" , "Drilling, Reaming, and Tapping" , "Cutting Screw Threads" , and "Special Classes of Work".    It contains 150 pages.  To view the Table of Contents, to inspect the quality of the manual,  and to view select pages, please click on the gallery images above.

About this manual: This is a high quality reproduction manual which has been scanned with a high resolution scanner.  Each page is then digitally edited in Photoshop to remove grease marks, fingerprints, writing, and other imperfections that the original manual may have had.  It is then printed on 24 lb heavy paper and 65 lb cardstock for the covers with a 600 DPI LaserJet printer.  The result is a clean and durable manual which many times is better than the original and should last many years in your shop.
