Older Central Machinery T-596 Bench Grinder

[eagle12624]

Hello, again since I'm new to this site I'm still trying to figure things out and how to do things on here. I just recently got a OLD bench grinder. It is a Central Machinery 2 HP, 10", Green in color Bench Grinder made in Taiwan it's
13 1/2" tall, 21 1/2" Long The motor measures 23" around and weighs 74 LBS. serial # 000784, single phase or phase 1, volts 110, cycles 60. I gave all that information because I'm looking for a Original owners manual or a copy of it with the break down in parts and part numbers for the parts. My brother who was a mechanic, has only seen two or three of these in his life time as big as it is. I have upload pictures of it. If anyone has any info or knows someone, or knows where I could get info on it it would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help.

Central Machinery is a house brand of Harbor Freight. The first step would be to contact them but based on past experience with their product support, I would doubt they will be much help. Maybe somebody here has one and can help. Just what information are you looking for?

X2, what are you hoping to do with the manual? That's a pretty low end grinder despite its size and HP. Tool rests attached to cheap tin wheel covers does not a quality grinder make.

You are correct. Like I had said in my first post A lot of family medical problems going on and I'm not really on my game lately especially with whats going on with the wife. So to anyone reading this I hope I didn't inconvenience you to much. Thanks again

You shouldn't feel like you are bothering us. It takes some time to figure out how to use a forum sometimes.

Being Taiwan, that may have been HFs best grinder ever. But being what it is, run it if it works. Their stuff is kind of disposable. Use it up then toss.

Do you have any specific questions? Maybe you don't need the instructions.
