colchester bantam 1920's to 1930's manual

[kaighn80]

hi, recently i was lucky enough to be given a lathe, its a screw cutting lathe with a powered cross slide and up till tonight i wasn't sure of who made it but i stumbled across a picture on everyones most hated auction site of a very similar lathe, i searched the name and came up with pictures of how it should look, problem is i need a manual and or service guide for it and i cant find one anywhere, anyone have any idea where i could either download one (free would be good) or buy one (on the cheap if i have to)

Or 600 Lathes spares
