Comments:

This machine is no longer used in our school shop. There is enough wear in the ways that it is difficult to adjust and operate. Additionaly, due to the travel of the foot pedal, it is difficult enough for an adult to operate let alone a high school freshman. I don't have any manuals or other documentation on it.
