Some of the manuals overlap on certain machines and parts, because Atlas didn't change every machine and part at precise times, but I can help you match the appropriate manual with your machine. SEE "Which manual works with your lathe:" below. I am aware that there are original versions of this manual sold on eBay, but I am not trying to compete with those manuals. By many request, this collection of manuals was reproduced for my Atlas Craftsman-Sears customers. I am trying to provide a complete collection of manuals after years of research and processing, scanning, and cleaning over 1,500 pages from these 6 different manuals. I hope my effort helps you with locating the appropriate manual for operating your size and vintage of lathe.
