    Default Beaver Mk2 Milling machine enquiry

    Hi I've just bought a Beaver Mk2 milling machine and its missing a couple of parts. The main one being the external assembly for the High/low Speed change. It has a variable speed head if it makes a difference. I've found some photos of the removed components on another old US forum. The main part i'm interested in is called the 'Back Gear Lever' on pages 24 and 25 of the Beaver Manual. Its not really a lever but the hub that detents the speed positions. The speed change lever does screw into this.
    Does anyone have a photo of the underside of this component?

    Thanks
    Bob

    I have the same machine but I can't access it at the moment, when I can, I will get some dimensions and photos for you.

    Thanks, but i have a copy of the 48 page manual. Its a poor copy, and shows little detail of the item i'm chasing. I have ordered a Reproduction copy of the 188 page Workshop Manual.
