Have an Enco 100-1427 turret mill with 2 speed & pulley speed change head. Started seeing issues in fly cutting and and increase in noise from my spindle. Pulled the top end off to check bearings, pulleys and gears. One item I noticed that concerned me was that the sleeve around the quill does not appear to be fixed in place and can be moved up in down the quill with some force from the top end, sorry should have taken pictures will add tonight. Based on the manual I can't tell where and what holds the sleeve in place. Spindle bearings don't sound bad either which was my first suspect. Though the splined spindle appears to have some wear on the splines. Any thoughts on these issues? What are the standard failure items on these type of mills?
Thanks
