B&S #2A Universal Milling Machine s/n 7339

I am about to start restoring the above machine, but I do not have any manuals or operators instructions. At the last count it had 27 levers/ handles to operate, I am sure that it grows extra ones at night! If anyone can supply, sell, copy any information I would be eternally grateful. This machine came over in WW2 as part of the lease lend (Marshall Plan) agreement between the US and UK. Thanks Gordon.



If it was used in the military I bet you can find a PDF manual on the internet. I found one for a Greeves Cincinatti horizontal that I had.

the Marshall plan and the lend lease are two different things.

Lord Gordon, I may be able to help. I have the manual and parts list for the No. 2 for serial numbers beginning 9582. Should be applicable for your machine. Send your snail mail and I'll drop a copy in the post.
