Is anyone familiar with the operation of these Russian Stanko milling machines ?

This is the same as one I'm looking at to buy, and I can't understand some of the symbols on the labels/panels.
Also need to know how to get the table to move under power. Don't know if there's something wrong with the table or if it's just me not knowing how to use it. The guy that's selling it owns a welding shop and he doesn't know either. I know that sounds strange but he told me that he bought the Stanko milling machine and a Stanko lathe as a package deal, and he never used the mill.

I switched on the table at this panel and can hear the motor under the table running and gears churning but when X, Y or Z levers are pulled into position the table doesn't move. (all three axis will move if cranked by hand).


What's the button labeled "T" inside a circle for ? ... or looks like a bolt.





Had the table gearbox set like this at the time. Is it safe to move these levers while the motor is running ? ...They don't want to move easily if it isn't.
