 Manuals for various almost identical lathes are located in the VHS-Documentation Google Drive shared folder which can be accessed below. Each manual is quite different, covering different topics in different depths and at varying qualities of both images and writing, so take a look through them all for the information you're looking for. Manuals for various almost identical lathes are located in the VHS-Documentation Google Drive shared folder which can be accessed below.
