The lever engages and disengages the gears to the gear rack. One position and the headstock is cranked back and forth along the gear rack. The other it can be pushed along the way tubes like the Mark V.

I put the headstock on it and ran it back and forth and it works like new. I also added a steel plate in the vacuum box. Next on the list is all new bearings and paint for the headstock. The belts look good but if I can find new ones, I'd like to replace those while I have it apart.
Wow! That looks great! Is that a powdercoat?
Nice! Makes me anxious to get to my basket case.
Cheers!

As a guy who’s trying to exercise restraint, watching you VII guys work together is a good way to sort of have the experience via osmosis.
If the time should ever come these posting may prove an invaluable resource for VII newbies.
