  • Sherline Mill Saddle Lock Upgrade Instructions
  • Enhances older Sherline mills
  • Introduces efficient locking mechanism
  • Features easy-to-use brass lever
  • Prevents self-locking with spring-loaded ball
  • Simplifies and improves locking process

The Sherline Mill Saddle Lock Upgrade Instructions provide guidance for enhancing older Sherline mills with a more efficient locking mechanism. Initially, Sherline mills manufactured before 1999 employed a nylon friction lock system, which required a socket head screw to secure the mill column gib and dovetail. However, with the advent of the Model 2000 mill in late 1998, a new locking system was introduced. This innovative system features a brass lever on the leadscrew that locks against the top of the saddle nut, offering a more secure lock without the need for additional tools.

The upgrade involves replacing the existing system with a new locking lever and a saddle nut equipped with a spring-loaded ball. This design prevents the lever from self-locking when the leadscrew is turned, thereby enhancing the functionality of older machines. For those replacing a worn-out saddle nut, this upgrade simultaneously improves the machine's performance. Even if the current saddle nut remains functional, incorporating this feature can simplify and enhance the locking process, making it more reliable and user-friendly.
