Introduction
When manufacturing or rebuilding components to replace worn ones in the
field, the machinists, at times, is limited to the type of operations he can
perform  because  the  type  of  machines  needed  are  not  available  in  his
particular shop set or van.  Therefore, manufacturers have developed various
attachments that can be mounted on the lathe to bridge this gap.
These
attachments,  when  mounted  on  the  basic  engine  lathe,  will  allow  the
machinists to perform milling, grinding, drilling, and slotting operations.
During this task, we will discuss the uses, repair, and adjustments on some
of the lathe attachments.
