I've also noticed that Chester now have a forum on their website, and
it appears to be moderated by the same Gareth that Mark has referred
to above.
Perhaps it would be worth posting your experience there and see if
they respond to it.

I wonder if Chester ever ponder how much damage this sort of thing does
to their business? It certainly puts then into my "never touch" list.

When the only tools you have are a Bridgeport, a CNC Taig Mill, a Colchester
and assorted other stuff, every problem looks like a steam engine.

Gentlemen,

Some of you seem to be giving "Pete" a lot of stick over nothing, he has a
machine which has a problem and under warranty he should expect it to be put
right, don't knock him down because he has bought so called Chinese rubbish.
We all buy what we can afford at the time, I for one own a Clarke CL500M and
it suits me fine and if I am careful can produce work to the tolerances I
require. The warranty is there for the customer protection whether it is a
DS & G or Chester Lathe.
