One more Craftsman Combination question...

[LeftyMcHirple]

Greetings. New guy in this garage. Today I picked up a Craftsman Saw/Jointer Combination with dust collector for $100. The saw works, but the jointer does not. I believe the jointer just needs to be rewired (see image of cable in). If not, it's possibly the crossover switch (pictured).

Anyone with tips, advice, or know where I can get the manual? I assume it's not all that important to have, but I'm finding NOTHING on this unit, which is kinda odd. The jointer is direct drive—not PTO from the saw, so there are essentially no shared power elements, meaning everything should be separate units simply bolted on to one rolling stand. I know at one point Craftsman had units that had drill presses, jointers, and some other machines running off a shared or swapped pully or a PTO. Regardless, the stand is in surprisingly good shape, and most of the exposed steel only has very minor surface rust. From the plastic of the bevel lock handle, it's giving off early/mid 80s vibes.

Just hoping that I didn't light a Benjamin on fire...

From a website called copyright encyclopedia , looks like 1998 vintage.

yeah, I thought it looked like mine, which has a 1981 date on the manual. What's 20 years between friends?
