I am not certain that this is a new online post or not but just in case here is a link to a Mark V Maintenance Manual.

This in conjunction with the parts manual that has always been online constitutes a good starting reference for a new owner.

Is there the same document for the Mark 7 online?

Dusty, you might want to post this in the Newowner Information thread also.

Paul, did you not get a manual along with your Mark 7/PowerPro when you bought it?

As far as whether there is one available online, I don't know - LOOK!:rolleyes:

Dusty: I assume you would not object to my doing so in the top post. If you do, I will remove it!

If you having posted it will adversely affect my perforrmance bonus then I by all means object. Otherwise, this is all for the benefit of those who might need it.

Thanks for posting it.

I did not buy a Mark 7, I purchased all the pieces to create one. The manual included is focused on the upgrade and troubleshooting the motor.

The document on the 520 that was posted was specifically on maintenance, and much of it does not apply anymore.

Aside from the fact the headstock innards are different(no maintenance), the table posts are different, and the end castings/tie bar are different, what do you expect to find in the Mark7 manual that you do not already have a superset of?

I assume SS will 'sell' you one, but I doubt it would be worth the price!
