Hi

I know a couple of forum members have been chasing a copy of the manual for the Woodfast MC 908 lathe over the years.

I recently got a copy of the manual from a very helpful bloke & wife who were selling one on eBay a little while ago.

The copy is in scanned PDF files (large). If you are looking for a copy - message me and I'll arrange to get you a copy.

regards

David

Hi David,

I hope you still have the copy of the Woodfast MC908 Manual. I recently picked up a Woodfast MC908 lathe in good condition from a clearance sale & would be interested in the manual for it. Please could you send me a copy of this pdf file.

Many Thanks

If David doesn't, I got a copy from him and shrunk it down to about 4meg. PM me if David doesn't.
Cheers,

Lol65 & Jim

I have still have my original digital copy of the manual - but is large (about seven emails from memory & 30 MB) - happy to send them on but Jim's suggestion may be better (ie smaller file size and no real affect on quality) - Jim did a great job in reducing the files I had - I'd private message Jim - or PM me with email address and I will send - regards david D

hi David,
It should be attached to this but if not send me a pm with your email address. Also a Rikon the USA version of the Woodfast which has some extra detail. Just remember that things like thread sizes might/will be different.

Hi. Just saw the string on manuals and wondered if your might still have a digital copy available. Bought my lathe at Craftsupply USA in middle 90s. Has been a loyal and great companion. However, I finally broke down and purchased the Powermatic 4224B lathe and after 6 months transportation delay - finally came in. Now to sell the Woodfast MC908 on eBay. Would appreciate your digital copy - can’t find my physical manual anywhere.
warm regards

I'm new to this group and found what I'm looking for pretty quickly, the manual for the Woodfast MC 908. A big cast iron lump of a thing. The belt is shot and short of using magic I figure there must be a procedure to change the belt. So thanks to all.500029
