Scott, they are called retention knobs. Here is a link.

Some are very close, would be better to ask the manufacturer what they were designed for.

SCOTT first off you need to go out for a good ITALIAN meal and then stop off and pick up some GOOD ITALIAN wine. POLISH off the wine and then take another  look at the manuals.(;-)

no manuals came with it other than the old burnt out Numeric control manuals, the electrical schems, and mechanical schems (which are for a differnt machine same manufacture).
It would be great to have a User manual, no such luck.  A Stone cutting Tooling sells rep for ADI tooling stopped in today and he is going to call some of his clients that have simular era machines to see what the tool holder stud type is. It uses an ISO 50 holder, which I found strange..........
