    Sabre 500

    I am looking at a Sabre 500 at a local machinery dealer. The machine is being sold as is, it has a whole library of manuals with it but no tool holders. I watched it run and it sounded good, but that was not under load.
    Are there any ''Warning signs'' I should be aware of?

    I have a BP EZ TRAK and need bigger/faster.

    Any help will be greatly welcomed

    It is a 1993, or at least that is what the manual says.
    As far as the controlls go, I'm not sure.
    Upon some further investigating I discovered that it has a troubled past , so I am not going to go any further with this machine.

    Thanks for the quick reply though!
