I just took delivery of a Nov 1944 Monarch 10EE. It appears to be in decent shape. I do machinery restoration as a hobby and I am going to completely tear this machine down and restore it to like new or better condition....and keep it!
I am going to clean the machine, de-grease it and try to get some measurements on the ways to see if there is any noticeable wear. To the naked eye they seem pretty good.
I need to remove the rod that has the carriage stop so I can remove the carriage assembly. All pretty easy except for the rod collar near the headstock. Before I damage it, can someone enlighten me the proper removal steps?
