Hey Iggy,

WOW !!! Watch for a counterweight that is too heavy....look at the
top cross-frame(s). The remaining one is bent, and looks to me like
they cut the front one off because to was too badly bent to leave.
Strange.


I am not sure if the front one ever existed. I bet that they bent it
when moving this press with a crane, there is a mark in the middle
from a crane hook.
