The Handle and Screw are in the plastic bag. I believe, but have not confirmed, that they are the same parts used on the Carriage of the 510/520/M7 to raise and lower the Main Table.

Just saw this thread, and my experience may be helpful, if you can't get the feed motor to work and want to convert to manual feed. This may be the article have already seen, since it was from 2015.

Jim,
br549's experience adding a Manual Feed to his Mark Mount Planer may be more helpful than what you have received so far. Do keep in mind that his making a Manual Feed was over 10 years ago and new OEM parts from Shopsmith are more limited for the Planers than before. Used parts still come up for sale so keep an eye out for them.
As for the Crank Handle it is the same part number as the one for the Carriage as mentioned in my previous post.
