Comments:
Purchased this machine on CL in November of 2011 for $150. Previous PO acquired it about 25 years ago. It came with a 1 HP B-Line RI motor with double pulley and a Dayton Motor Starter wired for 240v. It has a cast iron gear box and original metal stand. I took everything apart, cleaned, painted and reassembled. Replaced the bushings, added a grease seal, installed new knives and added casters.
