Comments:

This machine showed up at the local Habitat for Humanitty ReStore. I did not buy it, I don't know who did, or what the price was. The machine had no data plates or serial numbers that I could find. Based on the smaller 3/4th HP motor I am guessing it was a 9" model. The blade had also been removed so the 9" designation may be incorrect. The motor and pulley did use two belts instead of the more common single belt. Overall, I was not impressed with the machine. It was lightly built out of mostly sheet metal and the fence rail system seemed particularly flimsy. I would take an old Craftsman/Emerson from the same era over it.
