Andrä & Zwingenberger - User Manual

[maclerche]

I'm looking for user manual for an Andrä & Zwingenberger watchmaker Lathe as it showed ... it's especially a section about the   Face Plate that I'm looking for. If it exists!

I can not figure out how to work with the centerpin and springs. Perhaps it does not fit together?

If the centre pin does not go through the collet holder then it may be as simple as that is not the correct collet holder? Should go straight through the collect holder and then through the middle of the faceplate

There is a  brass piece missing on the centering arbor. I can post a photo on monday. The manual (4 pages only afaik) does not adress your issue.

Great Frank i would be happy to see a picture of that!

I can now understand that there is a brass thing missing on the centering arbor. But i have an idea that the drawbar is not the right one. The centering Arbor can not reach very long as i show on the pictures here...

Maybe your drawbar is too long, there are different types. The mentioned brass piece is fixed in the draw tube at my machine. It has a guiding slot for the pin on the centering arbor.

Thanks Frank...

Yes i think the drawbar is to long. Maby i can make a new none some day.  The most important is that the centering arbor fit the Face-plate and im shure that this is the right one. It fits perfect... Im going to us it on my Cowells 90CW lathe, so anyway i might need som changes ...

Your issue is you don´t use the A+Zw headstock. Its spindle length surely is different.

The light of the Drawbar don't change no mater what the spindle length is... The drawbar shown here is the one that came with the faceplate...   

I can shurely make it fit the Cowells some how...
