I got the same machine,good stout mill the Poles make. Yes it does have a quill, that T-shaped deal in the recessed hole on the front of the head is the quill lock. Is has similar in the hole on the right side of the head,which is the quill feed. The quill feed is not a direct rack and pinion like on a Bridgeport,but instead is a gear drive arrangement.There is a T-handle wrench that fits in the recess and engages the cross pin for unlocking and turning the quill drive. That same wrench also runs the ram in and out and opens the electrical cabinet. I have a set of manuals for it if you need some questions answered.
WOW Steamfan ! ! ! So cool you have the same machine. I am pleased to know it does have a sliding quill ! I have not looked into that yet but awesome that you have confirmed that. Yesterday I spent HOURS with the ShopVac and a scraper blade cleaning the ships and dried coolant goo ! My back hurts today. And my head from banging it on the underside of the table a few times. LOL One Q? The machine is wired for 440V and I need to change it to 220V. There is a note tag (in English) in the electrical cabinet that has a punch list of items to change over. One is the usual change the motor wires over and one is change the taps on the control transformers. The last one I can not figure out. It says something about changing leads on some capacitors, only if you have the powered overarm (which obviously I do). I have not found any capacitors yet. Surprised it has caps, as all the motors I believe are 3 phase. The control cabinet does have some rectifier diodes and some resistors. Not sure what they are for yet. But do you know what capacitors the note is talking about ? ? ? Thanks Steamfan. -----Doozer
@@kooldoozer It has electronic spindle brakes on both spindles.When you switch the motor for either off,the brake actuates,stops the spindle and powers off.Seems like it all happens in about 2 seconds. So there should be a DC power supply in there somewhere. I have the electrical schematic for mine,I'll see if I can just snap a picture of it and send it to you over on HSM. The manuals are well done, they have big fold out pages with cross section drawings of everything. Unfortunately that feature makes them a real PITA to try and copy. When I got mine, there was still a dealer in New Orleans that had a copy, he sold it to me for $100 which was a steal considering it's two hardbound books and a full sized electrical drawing.
Thank you. My grandfather's last name was Sosnowski. Glad you found my channel. I still have the Jarocin mill in my shop, and plan to restore and use it. Watch for a future video about it. -----Doozer
@@kooldoozer You have cool videos on your channel. I've been in a bad mood lately and RUclips doesn't like me - they delete my comments, but the thumbs up remains. Regards , Paweł.
Thanks GTB. Polish iron is new to me. Except for my Bison chucks LOL LOL LOL. You need to post some machine shop making something videos. Learn them machines. Get your dad in your videos too. I think it would be great !----Doozer
Dude, I'm really happy you decided to take it since last talking with you. I think the nickname for those were The Jaro but could be wrong. What a lovely assistance and I think she should be the host of future Doozer videos,lol...Okay bud talk to you later and can't wait to see it in action. BTW, I passed on that Smaller Hendey. Ricko
The mill looks very good under the oil and chips the sharp edges are not battered. The #2 size mills have very little daylight from spindle to the table the design of the early sliding vertical head on my B&S #2 has only 9" of daylight. Looks like a fun machine you have there!
Thanks Donnie. I think I have about 1 foot of daylight with the knee down. Have to see once I get the ways clean enough to move the knee. What I have cleaned, the ways look very good. In production, the way this machine was used, was to mill a square on a round shaft, using the indexer to space off the square. It ONLY saw travel movement on the Y axis, in and out. The main X and knee Z axis never got moved, maybe only in setup. So the typical heavy wear that most mills have on the table X ways, it does not have. The Y ways are box ways, and the oiling system seems to have been working, because there is a lot of oil on them. The Y screw looks pretty OK. The Y nut has a bit of wear, but it is actually moving for and aft in its mountings. It appears to be 2 nuts for anti backlash. Should be easy to tighten up. Or eventually make a new on e on the lathe. It is a round nut, not an odd shape like sometimes they can be. Thanks for your comments. Hope you build your garage shop larger soon. -----Doozer

Looks like it has a Cincinnati dividing head with the elusive and rare matching tailstock. Nice score!
hello from spain..very good milling machine
Thanks amigo ! ! ! I always watch your channel. Keep up the good job ! ! ! ---Doozer

Great to see you
Glad you are still having fun with you Pratt and Whitney. Who knew how much attention it needed. Glad you saved her. --Doozer
Cool mill, it is a shame that it has never been cleaned but it looks like it will clean up very well. It is good to have a camera person

Cool score!! You find some really cool stuff!!
Thanks brother !
That looks like a great machine for you to use once you clean it up. Good Luck with it.
Thanks man ! ! !
Interesting mill. Your shop is filling up fast. When does the expansion start?

Sorry I missed you, I left a message. I hear ya about passing on the Hendey. Hopefully the Cinci lathe will turn out to be a good old girl. ----D
@@kooldoozer I'll call you during the week Dooz. Love to hear about the jaro
@@kooldoozer I'm nervous about that Cinci hydra so I may just hold off for another old boy gear head.
Interesting mill.
Thanks Dale. Probably not one in the state of Alaska. ----Doozer
@@kooldoozer I don't think there is one here ether.

nice machine.
Thanks. I got your email. Just been super busy. --D
The cleanup will be interesting.That hunk of iron is filthy. It does look robust though.
Polamco is the same company tag as my mortiser
Polish mortise machine ? Cool. --D
