Comments:

I was looking for a PM100 when this appeared on an auction site, I bid and may have paid a bit too much, once trailer and rigger fee was included, but this is a very stout machine and this model was the "pride and joy" of a guy I know/knew, and if it's good enough for him, it is good enough for me.

The dirty paper claims it's 560 lbs, and it feels every bit as much. 1.5 hp, 3 ph, direct drive, Peerless motor.
All rollers are getting a bit stiff, so it will need a complete teardown, cleanup and fresh bearings.

BTW, for others looking, the build date and S/N is on a plate on the side of the small box on the belt/chain drive cover, under the "SKF Equiped".
