FOlks,
I have an opportunity to purchase a roll engraving attachment for use on my GK21 but I have a question that I'm not able to resolve with the seller; here are some facts:
The model of the attachment is 6020.
I have a "newer" GK21 model - the kind with the more boxy angles.
The manual that came with my machine does not list the 6020 as a prospective attachment but it does list models 6021, 6022, 6024, and 6025.
An older Operating Instructions manual lists the 6020 in addition to the 6021, 6022, etc. This manual says the 6020 is compatible with the GK21 (at least the ones made comtemporaneously with the GK21's made then.
Here's the real question, I think. Is the "newer" GK21 compatible with the 6020 even though the 6020 model is not mentioned in the manual that comes with the newer machine. This question revolves around whether or not the spindle fits properly into the "guide Bracket."
I hope that is specific enough for anyone with some experience in this to advise. I'd just like to know before I dump the money into a big "oops."
Cheers,
Rich
