204 Heavy Duty Combination Brake Lathe
INSTALLATION
Machine "Prep"
1. Carefully uncrate the lathe and wash off the anti-rust oil or any dirt accumulated
during shipment. Kerosene or any approved commercial solvent may be used.
DO NOT USE GASOLINE.
Locate and Position
1. Select a location, which provides a permanent LEVEL foundation preferably a
concrete floor. Ample space should be provided for the operator to move completely
around the machine. We recommend 30" from the wall. Then permanently secure
machine in place using the four mounting feet on each corner of the machine base.
Electrical Motors
1. Additional electrical devices or special wiring that may be required in your area
should be bought locally. Any Overload or Undervoltage protection devices are not
furnished as standard equipment and may be purchased locally or by Special Quote
from Van Norman. The main spindle is to revolve CLOCKWISE when facing the
work light.
2. Main Spindle Motor draws 13.2 amps on 120V wiring and 6.6 amps on 230V wiring.
Lubrication
1. Use regular No. 40 S.A.E. non detergent oil in all cups, the “Zero-Max”, and the main
body.
2. The oil level in both the “Zero-Max” and main body were filled at the factory. Please
check these levels prior to running the machine.
a. Main body oil should be filled to hole (Figure 2A).
b. The “Zero-Max” should be filled to within 3/4 inch of the fill hole (Figure 1).
