Hello,
Bear with me as I learn more about my Index 55 mill. I am missing what I believe what would be called the table feed stop. I am assuming as the table travels along the X axis the part (circled in red below) trips the table feed engagement lever to stop the table movement.

Does anyone have pictures of this part removed from the table? It seems to be fairly easy to replicate.

Many thanks.

Greg

I will pull mine off later today and take pictures and get some measurements.

I am missing the trip lever on mine so I could use a good picture of that part.

Dennis,

Is the lever you refer to the part that the stop "trips" or are you meaning the lever shown in the pic with the metallic handle end?

I have that and can post/send you pics.

Happy New Year.

Yes that is the lever that I am missing. The housing that holds the gear is broken and the lever was missing. I hope that these pictures will help you.
