Does anyone have or can anyone take a picture of their Lodge & Shipley spindle speed chart. I have a 14" model A that is missing the plate, and it would be a great help.

Thank you.
 
Might help to say which Model A. Older ones went to just 540 - or 1080 as an option

Some had 24 speeds - with a two speed motor

Later ones are mostly the fast range - or more
 
This is an old one. I actually think it is an Q or QA. That's what someone told me. I'm completely sure which model it is. It looks a lot like an A.

I know they don't put the chart in any of their bulletins, manuals, catalogs, etc... I was just hoping for a place to start before trying every combination.
 
Say serial on top right end in between two REAR ways

ON EDIT, add some scans for info

Left thumbnail is early thirties round top with speed chart above levers

Center thumbnail is mid thirties flat top with speed chart to left of levers

Right thumbnail is mid forties flat top with speed chart to right of levers

L1 nose or Double Spindle Nose?

Literature from about then shows clutch pulley speeds of either 500 or 1000 - for either 540 or 1080 top ends, respectively. Fairly easy to look at data tag on motor for its speed and calc pulley ratio and see where you are at. 540 came with 1200 motor and 1080 came with 1800 motor

Have '36 manual (double spindle nose shown) I can email if you want to PM your email address
