I own a medium size polish lathe, not a TOS though but an Andrychowska (year 1952 AFAIR). I believe they are similar in many respects.
I have copied the manual (including a comprehensive thread chart) and will mail it if you're interested. Send me a PM!

zebbguy, I know I asked for it but I got cold feet, looking at your drawing. I thought I knew enough of american relay and switch schematics but apparently there are holes in my knowledge. I read another PM thread recently about the different and confusing schematic styles and I fully agree...
Looks like Telemecanique switches but there must be many alternatives.
Some questions come to mind:
Hole size?
Number of poles? (pull out the switch, draw a diagram).

Plastic is the title for all newcomers. You can advance to Titanium, I think.
Nothing to do with the quality of your posts!
I think I can say you're very welcome.
Looking forward to news of your search. Best regards, fusker
I'm no expert but I thought the tank on #7 seemed too small.
I installed a hydraulic centrifuge in Singapore and had to get two local experts to help me out. First thing they said was: Get a much larger tank! We bought one from them, and it worked. Can't explain why but it seems those guys had a...
