Comments:
I bought this on Craigslist from a furnituremake/artist, who was closing his shop and selling some equipment. This was the last to go and had sat for a while unsold. I was happy to find it.
It was in good working order when I bought it, although one of the supports for the the outfeed roller was broken. The small tab with the adjustment bolt had snapped off from the main casting. A difficult piece to repair - Any Suggestions?
I recently took the suppurt bracket apart and realized that there was nothing left of the sleave bearing except for grease. I am repalcing that and I'll go from there. It was working reasonably well up til now.
It was fun moving it - I really love my pallet truck!
