OK - I'm continuing the teardown of this lathe and I've hit a bit of a hurdle. I'm having issues getting the selector handle hubs off the selector shafts.
The two threaded holes go all the way through the hub and I have tried screwing some bolts in and trying to 'push' the hub off the shaft that way, to no avail. I even drilled a strap of steel and bolted this to the hub and tried pulling the hub off with a slide hammer. Again, to no avail. The back of the hub is taperes, so I cannot get any purchase back there with a pry bar or similar.
Any thoughts?
I've also added some pics of the teardown, as I know you all like pictures!
I've never seen oiling port like these before - they are completely open. I though that perhaps they had caps that were missing but the pictures from the brochures/manual etc show them as being open as well.
