Harrison "13-inch" and "15-inch" (identical apart from centre height) and badged variously as: 155, 165, 190 and "1300" and also branded as the "Do-All". Operator's Instruction Manual and Spare Parts Manual as Sectional Drawings. The Sectional drawings have, in many cases, been separated, scanned at extra-high resolution and greatly enlarged on the page for improved clarity. These very distinctive lathes differ from the other 155 and 165 L6 Mk. 2 types in having the two spindle-speed levers pointing downwards on the front face of the headstock (instead of on top), large embossed sheet-aluminium covers on the headstock and face of the apron and a fully-enclosed screwcutting gearbox operated by five short levers fastened to small knobs (there was no traditional sliding, spring-loaded indent lever). Includes copes of both Harrison and DoAll Sales, Accessories and Technical Specification Catalogues.
