Picked up this 712 (1/2 horse, 7") off of CL yesterday. Never been used. The wheels are clean and untouched. My question is on what looks like corrosion that you'd see on battery terminals, the white stuff. It brushes off easily with a little brass brush. There's more on the right side than the left.
Galvanic reaction?? Chorline or other chemicals near by??
I was worried that it might have some more serious issues, so I opened up the bottom and it's pretty clean in there. You can see that the right side mounting hole has some rust, but nothing too crazy.
It runs nicely. And takes a bit to stop.
Anybody with a cheap source for the tool rests and eye shields?
As everybody says, you'll find more once you buy one. I picked up a 1/3 horse Wissota a couple of weeks ago. Needs most of the accesories too. The guy I bought the Baldor from had the same Wissota for sale too. It was absolutely pristine. All of the accessories were still wrapped in brown paper.
