Manual for Pexto shear

[outlaw]

A few months ago I aquired a Pexto xc42a gap shear that was made in 1941. I am planning to restore it & use it. Before I tear it apart & repaint & powder coat it I would like to try to find a original manual or a copy of one for it. I have contacted the current Peck, Stow, & Wilcox co., but all information they once had has been lost. I have bought a few missing pieces for it from a company in Washington that restores equipment like this, and they sent me a copy of how to adjust a similar but newer gap shear. I posted this on the hamb & recieved a few responces but no luck yet. I thought before I got involved with a machinest web site that I would post this here in hopes that a barner might have some information on it. Thank you. Bill
