Read before buying.

Please do your research to make sure you have a workshop lathe. Some of the indicators are the oilers are on the top of the headstock rather than on the front of it. Every example I have seen has the small feet under the bed. However the some of the later 9” lathe did as well. The countershaft is generally one non-adjustable casting. This isn’t the prefect indicator though.

You should check here to find the year your lathe was made…

You can sort this page by year to figure out what model you have.
