Hello, Can any one tell me what lathe this chuck fits? It has 1 ¾"-6 mounting

Ha! You're right about the spindle lock nut on the 405. I had to go out to the garage for a look and the nut my 405 is solid with a locking screw and the one on my 9A is split. I've taken them

Bob I think Chris' point was that the thread protector is used to remove the standard collet sleeve. The standard sleeve has a large flange on the outboard end, as you screw off the thread protector

No, Dennis, I am using all 20 DP gearing. I drive off the rocker gear on the reversing assembly that's a 24 tooth 20 DP gear just like the spindle. This allows me to use the 405 Gear chart and the LH
