What penetrating oil did you use? I have an older seized machine
also.

SWMBO picked up this non-working machine last week. She sent me a picture, looked like a
plastic version, which I wasn't to thrilled about. I was with Floyd at the time, he said
"Get it!" so I passed that advice back to SWMBO. Tonight I finally had time to
look at it. I was wrong, only the top cover and a side cover are plastic, the frame is
steel. Heavy! It's also in a nice case.
The works were seized from sitting, so I applied penetrating oil and gently put
pressure in the right places and over about an hour I worked it free.
Works like a champ now. Model #247, I'll have to see what info I can find on Al
Gore's internet. This is a very basic model, nothing fancy, uses belts for the
motor and the hook.
