Bridgeport Mill Rebuild Manuals for J Head and 2J Head Buy Both and Save $

2 complete books: renovating the bridgeport “j” and “2j” milling machine. Published in the usa by ilion industrial services, llc.

These are not fuzzy photo copies of old bridgeport parts manuals that you often see on line. These soft cover shop manuals are fully illustrated with hundreds of b&w photographs and diagrams, plus step-by-step instructions for disassembling, cleaning, reassembling and adjusting all of the critical components of the bridgeport series 1 milling machine.
Bridgeport never produced a full blown maintenance manual for their mills so this is the closest you will come to a step-by-step guide. Please take a look at the sample pages in the photos above for an example of what to expect.
The photos can be enlarged by clicking the button beneath the photos. The j head manual is 126 pages and the 2j manual is 156 pages. The typeface of the manual is printed two points larger than normal for those of us who prefer to work at the bench without the use of our reading glasses. The instructions are simple and easy to follow… No prior machinery renovation experience is required. Though the bridgeport is an industrial machine, it is well suited for the home garage shop or small business and the task of finding one, getting it home and getting it back into operating condition is not as expensive and daunting as you may think. Let us show you how.
