Restoring Woodmaster 5 in 1 multitool

Post by Mood227 »

Hello! I recently acquired a Woodmaster 5 in 1 and I cannot for the life of me find any documentation on how to operate or maintain it. I am wondering if it is missing any parts as it is obviously older. Can anyone help with any documentation? Thank you.

This may or may not help. The Wood Master Multi-Tool is a clone of the Shopsmith Mark V. To the best of my knowledge, it functions pretty much the same as a Mark V 500. There are differences in the parts and some parts are apparently interchangeable while other are not. I have not owned any of the Shopsmith Clones so I cannot answer any specific questions. From what I see in the picture above it does not look complete compared to what comes with a Shopsmith Mark V 500.
