Ed, table is 22" but has the bowls (?) on each side to collect coolant with a hole to attach a hose to.
Willie, thanks for the manual links, there are also links on the Wells-Index website but I never thought to look at the model 40 manual, which contains a bunch more info than the 40H book.
Stan, I don't think we've had a You Suck around here in a while! I'm honored!
I did power it up, the motor was swapped out for a 110/220V single phase motor a number of years ago. When the guy I got it from got it from his brother (who got it from his dad), he never used it. Anyway, when I power it up, the motor spins up to speed, you hear a click and it spins down to about half the RPM, then another click and it spins back up again. When it's spinning down it sounds like power was cut. Wondering if maybe the run cap is bad...
Anyway, from what I've discovered, it has a power spindle feed, but the belt is missing (19" x `1/2"), shouldn't be hard to find, at worst I have a factory part number and Wells-Index is still around.
I also need to make or buy a couple of cranks or wrenches for it. Square drive for vise and head tilt are missing.
The fun of exploring a new toy!!!
