Shopsmith has most of the old manuals on their site. Start here to find what you need.

No you don't. You can find everything here and much quicker than with an owners' manual. If you want one for a Mark V for your model let me know and I will sell you one with some additional material for probably less than you can get it elsewhere; however, while some of it was useful, because I had it long before this site was available, I didn't use it much. I needed it then, because it was the only resource, but I don't need it now, nor do you.
PM me if you want to buy it and I'll tell you what I have. My advice is just search and ask questions here. This is a much better resource because you can ask exactly what you want to know, rather than try to figure out what the manual writer wants you to know.
The manuals written 25 years ago were written from the writer's perspective (what they knew) rather than from the owner's (what they really needed to know).
