    Default Elu goes full circle

    Last night I was going through my Emails (I might get 3 or 4 a day) and there was one from a guy call Collin MacInness. He was asking for a manual on a TGS172 Elu Saw (you the one that flips from a bench saw to a drop saw). I had downloaded the manual from some one on this Forum some years ago. Anyway I attached the Manual file for him and sent it off with a chatty sort of note saying that a South African bloke had asked me for the same Manual. As it turns out this Collin MacInness comes from London!
    So here I am in a small country town in NSW supplying a manual for a German Saw. He says he can get parts but needed the manual to get the part numbers. So the ELU info has done a full circle and gone back to nearly its home
    Just do it!

    Kind regards Rod

    Default Elu

    I was speaking with a guy from elumatec the other day about the very same saw. It seems they sold the woodworking business to Black and Decker who then moved it to the Dewalt brand. He said you can still obtain spares for a lot of old Elu machines from Dewalt - parts are interchangeable with some Dewalt gear. The company now focuses on machines for cutting aluminium sections, etc.
