How do I change autofeed direction on my Harbor freight model BV-920 lathe? It feeds into the headstock, not away from it. It will feed away from the head stock if I change the motor direction but then the spindle spins reverse as well. Is it ok to cut with the spindle spinning the wrong way? Is there a way to make it auto feed away from the headstock and still have the spindle rotate toward me?
(I'm relativly new to machining, only had one class back in college)
thanks.
