| Software notes | The machine is prepared for CNC but ships without stepper motors or a CNC controller, which must be purchased separately. Control software is not included in the base configuration. | The 3029MAN is a fully manual lathe with no CNC control or software interface. Spindle speed is selected mechanically via a multi-step belt drive across four ranges (435–1800 RPM); feeds are hand-operated through lead screws fitted with friction-adjustable micrometer dials graduated at 0.001-inch increments. |
