I have a Colchester Master 2500, the top slide has a lock fitted operated by an Allen screw facing the operator,the cross slide is locked by another screw,positioned vertically on the right hand side of the slide,it is not very obvious that this screw is a lock and could be confused with the other screws holding the cross slide nut.
