[Fred Pachter] “I was wondering if you might have anything in your files–manuals, schematics, service instructions”

I would be happy to give you that, Fred… if I had it. I have absolutely bupkus. No documentation or instructions or anything of the sort. She arrived to us completely bare of anything like that… and still is.

One piece of info that might prove slightly useful, which I learned after talking with someone else who has one of these beasts: If it needs major work or an overhaul, you can send it to most any place that does major cine equipment repair work and they’ll fix it right up for you. And charge you an arm and a leg. OR… you can take it to most any dealer that services forklifts. Much of the mechanism (especially the hydraulics) is exactly the same… and they can service it, replace seals, or whatever… for a fraction of the cost.

Want another one? 🙂
