Before I left, on one of the our forums there was a lot of traffic about one member getting an advanced Mark 7 unit that was offered over the phone by SS before the official announcement. There was promise of pictures to show the new table mechanism and the dual tilting capability. I have tried searches to find these posts, and tried to find the poster (I only remember his location, which is just up the road from me), and have not been successful.
What I read being discussed in this thread, there appears to still be some question as to what all the new mechanisms look like.
Can someone fill point me to the correct thread that has all the pictures and information, or fill me in on what went on?
Thanks, Mike
He expressed an open invitation to come see him for a shop tour. If I were you, I would make the trip. If you do, please take your camera.:)

early Oct. When it finally arrives I will attempt to mount it on the oposite end to see if it will work.

My new Power Pro Lift finally arrived late yesterday.
In the paper work is the following statement:
"It has a quick-release feature at one end of the gas cylinder. This quick-release makes it east to remove one end of the cylinder from the Upper Mount. This is helpful when removing the Headstock for service. It is also useful for NEW Shopsmith Mark-7 owners when they tilt their machine to the left for under-table operations."
