10 year old 4X8 Torchmate Question

[topkote]

I am looking at a Torchmate that is about 10 years old. I has the THC. What kind of things should I look for and what are some of the things that might have to be upgraded.

From what I understand the older THC's can be problematic. If you can see it running well and following the plate up and down with the THC on thats a good start. Worst case scenario c&cnc and flashcut both have retrofit kits for older TM machines to update all the controls.
