Need Info. On A Enco 109-1000

[Helo-tech]

Hey guys,

I just got a "new to me" ENCO 3 in 1 machine, it seems in good shape and has a few extras but no documentation at all, does anyone know where I can find an owners manual or exploded parts diagram? I called MSC (ENCO) and they don't even show a record of having made it. there is no doubt of the maker or model as the tags are clearly there.

if nothing else, does anyone know what taper the spindles use or maybe how to identify them?

thanks, Helo-tech

Boy that may be a tough one, I have a three in one Shoptask and the lathe spindle is MT4 and tailstock is MT3 the mill quill is MT3 . Hopefully someone with an Enco like yours will chime in

I did a little Google Search just for fun on this and it seems that the machine might have been made by Smithy basically their Model # 1220.

This is one of the links I found about a slightly different Model # (109-1015):

This Link has a bunch of different OEM and their Model #'s

And Lastly a Link to the Smithy site - does it looks like one of these?

thanks for taking the time to help out with this, I've done considerable searches and have found that the Grizzly 4015 is almost identical, just a couple subtle differences.

I guess I'm gonna have to learn about this the hard way.

I did download the exploded diagrams from Grizzly and just from a casual look-over, the two are VERY close to each other.
