          interest, one payable on February 3, 1986, and the other on                 
          February 2, 1987.                                                           
               As a condition of becoming a limited partner, the                      
          partnership required an investor to assume recourse debt of                 
          $114,805 per partnership unit purchased, which represented his or           
          her proportionate share of the note executed by the partnership             
          in connection with the purchase of the additional equipment.  The           
          partnership anticipated that the obligation assumed by the                  
          limited partners pertained to the last installments of the                  
          partnership note, due between January 1, 1990, and January 1,               
          1992.
