First thing I'd do is lube it, then turn the disk so ya can turn the speed dial slowly to fast. Then clean it up and RE LUBE it in the drill press position.

[quote="sawwood"]Right you are joshh!!!!

Another one popped up on craiglist with no pic and not much info. A couple of weeks went by and since it wasn't to far from me, in Buford GA, I decided to call the seller and go take a look. Said he only had one other response in the past month (ie the weak ad with no pics) so was eager to show it right then. Didn't seem to know to much about it as I asked what model it was and he didn't appear to know what I was talking about. So off to Buford to go take a look. Turns out he had bought it from a garage/carport sale, ie it was kept out in the carport? and he had it stored at his storage unit which meant he never used it and no way to test it/ run it. :eek: It was/is a 510, from 09-13-94 with the 520 table upgrade!!!!! He also had the bandsaw and the dc3300 dust collector, but that was about it. He was asking $400. Having learned a vast quantity of knowledge from you'all ]

You did very well for $400.
