Description

Number of Pages: 50

This is a reproduction of an original Clausing 13″ Geared Head Lathe Instruction and Parts Manual, and covers models 6524, 6525, 6526, and 6527. This manual contains information on operation, lubrication, maintenance, and controls as well as a complete set of explosive view diagrams of the parts with descriptions. Please see contents below.

This lathe was manufactured during the 50’s and early 60’s. The machine stayed the same except they changed the apron to a single lever safety type like the one shown above. This manual doesn’t cover the older type of apron.
 

The manual above may help you operate and maintain your metal lathe. If you would like to learn more about metal lathework techniques, the names and proper uses of different lathe tools, and other lathe operations, I would recommend clicking on the pictures of these two books here. We also have a complete series of different machinist books on sharpening, gearmaking, milling machines, and more here: Workshop Machinist Series

Overview I have collected this information for many years and have found the information they contain to be priceless in using and setting up the machines properly. I believe this manual will be a valuable resource of knowledge that will provide a lot of helpful information that is often hard to find. My manuals are not photocopies. I maintain a high standard of quality in my reproductions. Most of the manuals I reproduce look better than their originals. I have professionally digitally edited every page,and removed stains, wrinkles and handwriting. All of the manuals are printed on thick white paper to withstand shop wear and tear; they are then comb bound with heavy cover pages so they lie flat on the workbench.
