Teac has some pdf files on their .jp website. I found them once while
using google to search for jumper settings for these drives.

I've got a huge box full Teac FD-55 drives somewhere. I think they all
have the gray faceplate/levers instead of black or ivory. All of those
drives were pulls from working equipment, so I think they are all in
working order. I might be willing to get rid of just a few of these later,
once I get everything moved into the new shop ;)
