1100 lbs of heavy metal there.  The beds are surprisingly short at 80".  And of course you need a phase converter or VFD, or a new single phase motor, to power it in a home shop so the actual cost is going to be quite a bit more.

3 HP motor so a VFD should work nicely. I'm not getting that guard, it that's what it is? Used to seeing a porkchop on there.

Doug, I think you looked under the column for the 12" model.  The 16" being advertised is in the right column, which says it's 5 HP.

Got it, thanks John! VFD will still do the job, albeit with a few more "Benjamins." 
Yes

Looks like there's a mount for a porkchop guard, wonder if it got lost and that thing there is the work around.
I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.

Well if it's a European machine so that guard is called a bridge guard and is actually the standard for most machines over there. Look at the Hammer or Felder machines they have a similar style.
