I just bought one of these for $55.
Model YHJ-60B
1 hp
dated 5-1992
motor seems to have no overload protection
guard missing but it doesn't seem a hard thing to make.
has an end-mounted fence
I think the outfeed table has a slight droop
I'm under no illusions--this is semi-junk machinery as purchased. Wondering if folk here think there is any potential in these machines ... whether they are worth a few hours to align and set up. Opinions?
I don't find much info on these online. Doesn't seem that the Cal-Hawk brand is being used for stationary power tools these days. Anybody know of a source for paperwork?
Thanks.
