It seems the drive is pre-set when enter the motor code number so no tuning in the amp.
Have finally got the head apart on the mill - a tiny broken shaft was holding me up - an absolute bugger to get out.
Now thats off it should move a bit more rapidly. The plan is to do a complete strip, wire-brush the poor repaint job it has off then sand and repaint in "Bridgeport Grey" engine enamel and reassemble to a bare machine then fit the CNC conversion.
The DRO and Original, working power-feeds will be sold off to raise funds.
Space is the biggest problem, will probably have to erect a shelter and do most of the prep in the garden.
