I have an old PM50 jointer I took apart, cleaned up and repainted. Now I am putting it back together and I can't find the pictures I took before disassembly and I can't get the infeed side put together exactly right. Anybody have one of these they could snap a picture under the table of the lifting mechanism to help me out? It's the model with the wheel mounted on the front of the machine rather than under the table. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much, but I actually have a different mechanism (didn't realize there were 2), mine has a threaded rod that runs the entire width of the machine, like the one below, but it would be really helpful if someone had a picture that showed all the way up to the back I can't quite see everything back there :

What you describe sounds like a Taiwan made copy of the Delta 37-220 design. I'd love to see a photo of what you've got. The design I posted above is the early version of the 50. The later version of the model 50 had the raise/lower hand wheels under the beds.
Powermatic at one time sold a Taiwan-made entry level jointer called the Model 54. It had the cross threaded rod for raise/lower of the infeed table only.
