Knitmaster knitting machine (Mansfield NG18)

Knitmaster Zippy Deluxe and SRP60N ribber set up. Both freshly serviced in January by Neil at KMR.

The zippy deluxe was a fore-runner to the modern SK280, and this particular model was the budget offering, so was manufactured without a lid. They also didn’t seem to come with a tool box, and the included tools were very cut down. I have managed to gather together all the tools it should’ve come with, minus the scale. I’ve also found the extras that would’ve come with the Zippy Plus - a set of magic cams, point cams and yarn separaters. No punch cards are included. I no longer have the paper instructions, but I could print a copy if required.

The SRP60N has its paper instructions, and all accessories- 5x big and 2x small weights, both types of hangers, p-carriage, p-presser, driving cam, bodkin, 2x combs, close knit bar, and R2 punchcards.

There are some spots of rust on the edges of both beds, however, both carriages run well, and this doesn’t seem to impact usage. I’d be sorely tempted to keep it if I didn’t already have an SK280.

Collection only from Mansfield NG18.
