Yes, but not listed on the Shopsmith computer site. A manual comes with the SR when ordered from Shopsmith. Maybe you can buy one from them.
There are a couple of cut away views in the "Tool Hunter" blog.
http://shopsmith-tool-hunter.blogspot.com/ They are hard to find!!! (at least for me).
The Speed reducer is a fairly simple tool with bearings, pulleys and two poly V belts. The same size as the one in the mark V.
The Speed reducer is set up to drive with 5 spline hubs. so the attachment comes with an extra 5 spline hub.

I recently purchased a speed reducer manual from Shopsmith for $3.99. I waited until I was buying something else to order the manual to avoid the shipping cost. I don't understand why they can't send these USPS media mail.
Get yours here:

Sorry JPG40504. It is a thread by mickyd on the maintenance and repair section of this forum. I don't know how to attach the thread by a link. Search mickeyd threads and it is:
Everything E / ER - Technical info, documentation, links
Good luck.

beeg, I did that and it didn't work, if you look at my post.
Here is a link from another site. Maybe this one will work.

I believe that the original request related to the Speed Reducer for the Mark V. The link leads to docs for the Speed Changer for the 10E/ER.
