I bought this off of craigslist last summer from I think the second owner. Original owner was a engieer frome Boeing I thnk. Second owner had it for aobut 5 years ago and di not use it much. He was no longer using it and needed the room. It runs great and has the original motor which has 2 speeds and a shifter that is still functional and of course all the different speeds via the different very heavy machine so I had to take it apart to transport same Got it home and put it on roller base I made prior to bringing it home. It is dirty but original paint. the bearings in the wheels are good. I spin them with out a blade on it and it runs for aobut 5 minutes. He also incuded 23 blades that fit it most of which are new and only about 6 that have been slightly used. The switch has been replaced poorly and I will need to redo that. They mounted on casting between wheels and the upper wheel cover hits the wire when opened. I am going to get it clleaned up, lined up and bolted down and use it. Not going to worry aobut a paint job. It purrs like a Kitten!!!
