As far as updating the machine, you can add the Heavy Duty Traction Belts yourself or pay separate shipping to send it back for us to install (really no reason right now to go to this expense--you can install them yourself). We would also check it over to see if anything needs to be repaired and call you with a quote before making updates. You would have to pay labor and parts cost.
Check out this link to see what updates on the Version C are available for older machines.
First, I would suggest you lube it properly, check the head pressure and see how she runs with a simple project like Design Project 1 in our
Step by Step Tutorials for Project Designer. Do projects 2 and 3 while your there just to learn the software quicker and what all it can do!
Join the CarversClub, you'll need the support, if your a new user at least until you get the hang of it, plus you will have no worries about calling us. If you do end up sending it in there is 25% off labor and you still get the monthly specials.
Lynn, do you have a part number for the Z/Y motor bundle update, (New or Used) I purchased an older "A" model unit. S/N AQ.007.XXX, model # 133.217XXX, I can give the X's part of those numbers if you need them in a PM.
The machine needed some repairs, but I have it working great now and I would like to have those parts in my supplies bin. This is an easy machine to repair, a lot simpler than the Radars, VOR’s or TACAN’s I used to work on in the FAA.
