When variable speed is increased the travel starts to work in reverse.Am looking for instructions to repair this fault
What you are referring to is called an "Infimatic" gearbox, or drum-feed gearbox.
The problem lays inside most likely with the clutches.
They are worn out, and possibly other components are worn and broken. Feeding backwards means something has gone terribly wrong--and it needs to be fixed immediately for the machine to operate properly.
These gearboxes are not easy to fix properly--they are literally like a puzzle inside. Our shop employs a infimatic gearbox specialist and we are one of the few shops who can rebuild them to factory spec.
A brand new Infimatic gearbox will run you over $1,300.00 plus tax and shipping from an Ammco depot.
You can ship a broken Infimatic gearbox to our shop for a complete rebuild to factory spec.

You might try buying a manual for it. There is one on E-bay right now. might be $14.00 well spent.
Hope this helps.
