Barrett Brake Dokter Drum Lathe information needed

Oh, yes Brent.
I have that affliction also. I consider myself a jack of all trades but amster of none. And I have the tools to prove it (some only used once). I am happy so what esle could anyone ask for.

Do any of you with a Drum Dokter have the manual that you would be willing to scan? I have a Model B-500 that I need a manual for.
 
Can we revive this thread?

My concern is the OD of the race built into the rear housing is 2.060(quick caliper measurement on one of mine). There would appear to be a lot of play centering off of the installed bearings with that 2.056 adapter.

I've recently acquired one of these machines and am able to make any adapter needed. I currently have a large rear cone, a stepped rear adapter(that I could easily turn to fit the hub rear), and have already made a small cone. The inner bearing race appears the best place to register but with the bearings in place, I just can't see it giving good repeatable results.

Razkid, I have most of the Barrett brake manuals for the various Barrett pieces of equipment. Just tell me what manuals you want and I will email the manual pages. Harry Barrett's quality produced are a keen interest of mine. The B500 was later equipped also with a rotor turning attachment when FMC acquired the Barrett company and the Snap On acquired FMC Barrett and sold their alignment equipment.
 
I have a B500 I'm restoring for the Model A Ford Museum in Hickory Corners, Michigan and would really like a copy of the manual so I can see how it all goes together. An email of the manual would be fantastic. Thanks! ExecutiveDirector@maffi.org
 
Hi CPD, I just sent you a copy of the manual via mail drop since it is a very large file. It will be available to download for 30 days. Let me know it there is a problem. I could also faxa copy if the maildrop doesn’t work. Supergnat
 
Hi again CPD, The email address you provided will not accept the email I sent due to policy reasons. Do you have another email address you can use. You can send it via a PM.
