Could anyone please assist me with determining the best way to lift one of these lathes? I have purchased it with no manual available. Not sure if a bar through the spindle for a sling and a longer sling around the bed near the tail stock would be suitable

FWIW they balance exactly under the spindle nose with the chuck removed. If you can hoist it from this position it won't take much to control the balance.

Thankyou. I had read that some people had slung them there, I was concerned the bed may twist.
The manual i found online didn’t mention any lifting recommendations, only weight and grouting to the floor etc.
Looks like you can download the manual from the French machine tool site: https://passion-usinages.forumgratuit.org/t2417-graziano-sag-180
Hi Kurt,
I had found a manual but there was no mention of where/how to lift the machine.
Regards
Jason
