Interesting machine. swivel table. Never seen one of those before. Too bad they left it outside. Doesn't look like it would have much z travel. Conclusion: Somebody grab it quick!
 
Grab it quick? If that is near what the 4u vicy I had was size wise it may weigh 7000bl.+/-. Table is what's called a universal table. My friend that got mine was very excited and more so when I pulled out the vertical head and 10 in. Vise. I didn't know it weighed that much, hauled it home in the back of the dodge, no the springs were not flattened out.
 
I talked to the owner. It's a 2U and he says they lift it easily with a 5000 lb forklift. He sent me a pic of the motor plate and it's 5HP but it shows 550 volt. When I asked if they really run it on 220 volt 3 phase he said they have 240 and 480 three phase in the shop and he's not sure which they ran it on. Asking price is 5K obo so I lost interest.
