Vanrock E-101 Manual/Schematic?
Hi all,
Thanks for all of your shared brilliance.
I recently purchased a Vanrock E-101 lathe and was hoping someone here has or could point me to any online scans of the manual/schematic for the machine. It seems some were posted here years back but were hosted on a no-longer active Photobucket account. Thanks.

I've been meaning to reupload these after having the same issue with the broken links.. I'll try to get to it tonight. Although TBH I did not find the manual to be especially helpful since it's in Japanese

Thank you! I've had success using Google Translate to scan Japanese text images and return pretty clear English text translations.ilium wrote:I've been meaning to reupload these after having the same issue with the broken links..

Re: Vanrock E-101 Manual/Schematic?
I did actually try that but some of the text is faint in the scans I have so Google was having problems with it. But if you are able to get good translations please post them!THIOF wrote:Thank you!

Here's the scans I have which I believe are all the same ones you might have seen on here before but the links where broken.

Thank you! I'll see what I can do with translating this and post my results if I'm successful.

Hi Folks!
We recently acquired an old VanRock 101 off ebay for our engineering teaching labs. I hired someone from the Japanese department (a 6th year grad student!!) to translate the manual for us. Follow this link to four documents - annotated original manuals (numbers added that correspond to items in translated copy) and full translations of the original manuals. If you are already familiar with the operation of this machine, I'd REALLY appreciate your feedback on the translation (hopefully it's a bit better than what googletranslate has to offer!). We're using the machine for a record cutting lab later this semester so I'd love to get any kinks out of the manual prior to that. Thanks in advance!

Re: Vanrock E-101 Manual/Schematic?
This is awesome, thanks indeed! I definitely encountered the issues ilium was referring to w/ Google Translate on some of the blurry areas of the other scans (though they were also helpful). Having someone who speaks Japanese/English manually draft a translated copy is as good as it gets! Thank you for shraring this. There's the one area regarding "damage" and disc distortion where the original image is indecipherable, thus unable to be translated. I'd be curious to know the troubleshot that it lists for that. I also recently purchased one and after some repairs finally have the machine fully functional. However, my test cuts (embossing PVC with a tungsten) are heavily distorted. Any ideas?shraquel wrote:Hi Folks!

Re: Vanrock E-101 Manual/Schematic?
I also just bought one. How is the sound (compared to a pro-cut) and max.
volume? I hope, it also works with plastic blanks...
