If you can figure out what Grizzly called that one when they sold it (they seem
to have at some point sold every design of Chinese and Taiwan made mill and
lathe) you may be able to get some parts, or at least download a manual.
I know JET sold that lathe during their "green period" before they went to the
cream color with black and red stripe.

A lathe showed up on my doorstep (almost). A friend called up and said
"I've got a lathe in my trailer and I want to know if I can bring it by
today." I guess he knows me well enough to know that I could not refuse.
I have had it a couple of days and I took some time to scrape the first
layer of grime off of it and take some pictures.

One of the control panels indicates it is a Samson TD-1336 (13" x 36")
and that it was made in Taiwan in 1982. It looks like a common Chinese
lathe offered by Grizzly or Harbor Freight. It doesn't have a lot of
wear, but has been abused. The back gears are stripped, the cross slide
has been crashed into, the spindle and chuck have been hammered on
extensively.
