Two arbor supports (drop brackets) were supplied with each machine: both were made of aluminium and complete with an oil reservoir large enough to last for several days' use. Type A was intended for arbors with a plain end and the other, Type B, for those fitted with bearing collars - the latter also having provision to clamp on the overarm-to-knee bracing bar .

Relatively small but beautifully engraved, the micrometer dials used a pull-and-turn mechanism (against light spring pressure), to zero them - an arrangement that eliminated possible setting errors as a locking knob or ring was loosened or tightened.

• Table and saddle ways - and the table feed-screw end bearings - were lubricated by a
  hand-pump drawing oil from a sight-glass-equipped reservoir built into the front of the saddle.
