🚀 PREMIUM ADVANTAGES & SELLING POINTS (The "Bells & Whistles")

• Extremely Low Verified Hours: Only 7,702 total lifetime run hours and 48,086 total lifetime tool changes. This machine was used exclusively for short-run, low-volume toolroom work—never thrashed in a high-production facility.

• Calmotion USB Interface Retrofit: Includes a factory-integrated Calmotion USB-to-Serial unit plug-in. Allows seamless loading and drip-feeding of large modern CAM/G-code programs directly from a standard USB thumb drive (no legacy floppy disks or messy RS-232 serial cabling required).

• Single-Owner Pedigree: Purchased brand new from Selway Machine Tool. Documented history from a clean facility floor.

• Verified New Spindle (2018): Low operational hours since a complete spindle replacement. Runs exceptionally quiet up to maximum RPMs.

• Recent Selway Service & Logs: Last outsourced field service performed directly by Selway on 3/31/2025 (replaced air/oil pressure kit switch). Meticulously documented by disciplined in-house PM log tracking.

• Factory 4th & 5th Axis Pre-Wire: Side panel connector blocks and internal amp tracks are fully configured from the factory for plug-and-play rotary indexing.
