Hi, Yep, sounds like a delta unisaw. And pretty old. With casting numbers consisting of 3 letters, then 3 numbers, probably at least 20 to 30 years old. Parts from them are expensive, but generally available for the unisaw. They have a 800 number, and can verify the approximate age of the saw on those casting numbers. They can also supply an exploded parts diagram of the saw which will help to identify missing parts. Also, join Yahoo and do a search for a GROUP (there are groups, clubs, all sorts of wierd things) called oldwwmachines, uh, I think, if you're interested I'll check my bookmarks later, some experts on there can tell you EXACTLY what you need to know about this saw, and some will have parts for it MUCH cheaper than a dealer. I got a 50 year old obsolete bull gear for the transmission of my wood/metal delta bandsaw there for $50, with the shaft, bearings, keepers, EVERYTHING. Had been checking with delta dealers for NOS for some 9 years. These guys solved the problem in 6 months! Tools
