I have yet to figure out why it's tied into the head lol. The crank obviously lifts the table but then there's that linkage tied to some gearing in the head.

That lever is the foot feed for the spindle. Has nothing to do with the table.

Ah, I see it now. The pedal for the feed is jammed up under the table. That is one cool ride. Looks like it's all there too.
