| − | I've noticed a few problems in recent tests: -
| |
| − | * the spindle pulley is not in the correct position - some of the grub screws were loose (and hanging out) but when fully released the pulley can't be moved back into position
| |
| − | * the centres were not aligned and the bolt to release the headstock end of the bed tube is not as in the Clarke manual
| |
| − | * the cup chuck is off whack!
