Purchased from used machinery dealer in SE Michigan. History unknown. I restored, put in service in my hobby shop and sold in 2015 to reclaim floor space. New owner in Whitmore Lake, MI uses to surface large slabs in his business. 10HP direct drive motor draws over 100 amps at start-up. Sounds like an airplane when spooled up. Several minutes to coast down to stop. 4 knife head.
