CONDITION: Used – Excellent Mechanical & Functional Condition

LOCATION: Hayward, CA (On shop floor, under power)

=============================
PREMIUM ADVANTAGES & SELLING POINTS
=============================

* THE "B" ADVANTAGE (Geared Head): This is a true VF-3B model featuring the sought-after High-Torque 2-Speed Gearbox Drive. Ideal for rigid, heavy-milling operations in tough materials, steel, or mold work. Much scarcer and more valuable than standard belt-drive units.

* SINGLE-OWNER PEDIGREE: Purchased brand new from Selway Machine Tool. Never bounced around from shop to shop or abused by auction flippers.

* VERIFIED NEW SPINDLE (2018): Low hours since a complete spindle replacement. Runs incredibly smooth and quiet through the full range with zero high-RPM bearing whine.

* IN-HOUSE MAINTENANCE HISTORY: Maintained strictly via regular, disciplined in-house preventative maintenance tracking and internal logbook documentation.
