Anyone out there help me locate a manual for the older Shopsmith Overarm Pin Router model #505806 I just acquired at an estate sale?

Thanks

Don't have the one you are looking for, but here's the manual for the new one. From the way tubes to the router there isn't much difference. http://www.shopsmith.com/ownersite/productmanuals/OverarmPinRouter.pdf There are differences in the table, but those changes here can be looked at as adding versatility.

This manual and others can be found by going to the main Owner's Shopsmith Page and click on "Support". The drop down menu will lead you to available Shopsmith manuals.

I have this exact same unit that I received when I bought my used Shopsmith last year. The gentleman who owned it kept everything but this manual was not part of the paperwork that I received. But I did see this in a old Shopsmith magazine so I scanned it for reference purposes. I tried send it last night and this morning but for some reason the Shopsmith Forum will not let me add attachments. It just keeps keep giving me the same error message. If you will send me an email address via PM (Private Message) I will send you what I have.

One of my future projects is to build a stand for mine and replace the table top and set it up to use the overarm router and put in a plate to be able to use the router from below. Get the best of both worlds.

Alan.
I have the table that accepts the router from below. If your present table will fit my stand alone set up, I'd be willing to trade. All I need is a table that can be adjusted in and out and will accept my pins.
