hello acelathe,
The manual is called " How to run a lathe" by South Bend. You can find a copy of it in our sister group called "southbendmanual". Subscribe to that group and look in the files section.
Each year South Bend published a newer version of the manual. You can find a copy of your year lathe on ebay. If you do not know it's year post the serial number (located on top of the ways near the tail stock) here and we can tell you when it was built. There are many sizes and models of SB lathes. The serial number will tell all.
