Well its actually running M3 in that direction so I suppose its running forward
The way the original contactors are set up is that CW is default so obviously its meant for the rear turret.
Cant use tools upside down because of the wedge clamping for the tools, if I put them upside down they would be well below the centre line.
The DOC in the video was I think 3mm but I have taken as much as 20mm off the Dia in one hit and it didnt seem to bother the lathe. Just dont want to do that DOC too often with the door open and no coolant as the spray of very hot curly bits of steel can soon become uncomfortable
Servos seem to be working great, seems to be enough power but I suppose my first time pushing a 2" drill into some stainless will tell me if they are OK.
Let me know how the motors and drives look once you test them.

BTW do clocks run backwards when you get that far down south
