Try this site. Look through the various links near the top of their page and you can find publications such as parts lists, owners manuals etc. They've also got a buy/sell thread on their sister site that's linked to there. Good place to find missing parts.

I have a 1942 Atlas Craftsman 10" lathe. I knew it was probably from the 40's by the serial number but the spindle bearings are date stamped 1942.

109 usually refers to the AA produced mini-lathes, but I am not familiar with the 0701, just the 0703. A picture would help.
