Myford VM-F milling machine manual

[stevep]

Hi all.

I have just acquired a VM-F milling machine from the estate of a fellow club member who has sadly passed away.

Unfortunately, we have been unable to find the manual for the machine, and I wondered if anyone has one that they can either scan and send the PDFs to me, or can lend to me so I can scan it?

Many thanks....Steve

Hi Steve,

You should be able to find one at www.lathes.co.uk

Russell.

Thanks for the suggestion Russell - I have looked there.

There isn't a manual listed on their web site, but I have sent an e-mail to Tony to enquire whether he has any information. He's away at the moment, so I am waiting for his return.

Regards....Steve

Steve,
Almost certain Tony will have one of those.
I purchased a Myford VM-C mill earlier this year and Tony supplied one for that.
Cannot remember how to find it on his web site now but there is a page somewhere in it that lists all books he has.
Will post link if I find it.

Check with Myford.
They list one for the 'E'

That mill is an import that Myford "tune up" before they put their name on it.

Chances are there are manuals out there for the "untuned" imports under other names.

Look at www.grizzly.com these US importers put all their manuals and parts lists on line for free download and you may be able to find one that a dead ringer.

Thanks for all the inputs.

Myford phoned me back yesterday to say that they have managed to find one, which they are now sending to me - so problem solved.

Thanks all.....Steve
