Anyone Know Anything About This Older Weaver Press

I can pick this press up pretty cheap. need to find out if it works. Does anyone know anything about this brand?

Here's another shot.

Weaver made professional garage equipment. Lot's of neat weaver equipment out there including several press styles. Here are a couple vintage weaver adds. I have a few pieces including the arbor press and the auto ambulance. Very cool vintage equipment. Ed.

Any luck getting info? I just picked up a 50 ton one that looks identical. Yours is the only picture I found online that matches mine.

Castle equipment is a great source for Weaver equipment with its own history section.

Thank you Hiball! I have searched their history pages and PDFs but no luck yet. I have seen lots of info on screw-type presses there and a bit elsewhere. I am mostly curious as to how old it might be.

Everything currently works with only some seal leakage when extending the secondary large piston after the smaller diameter inner one reaches the limit of it's travel. I don't use the press often enough for this to worry me.

I would simply give them a call, I’d be willing to wager they can help you date it either off the model or serial number if legible.
