I am going to look at a 1999 Sumitomo sh145u machine this week. The serial number is 145u11294. Does anyone have any reports good or bad on this machine? I have tried searching for it, but have not found much information yet. It has 4400 hrs and appears to be in good shape, but I am concerned about parts availability. I am led to believe it may be similar/same as either a case or link belt machine. Does anyone know how to go about deciphering which parts would fit? Regards, Alan
Did you end up buying it?
