I may get your machines confused, but I think the Cinci has Gettys motors
and amps.  The motors are 8 pole DC brush, and very low voltage and very
high current.  My understanding of the Gettys history is they used huge
banks of car radio audio output transistors in parallel as these were
readily available, and this limited them to not much over 12 V, but the
motors are rated up to 80 A or so.  So, no, my servo amps definitely
cannot drive those Gettys motors.  They could probably get the machine
to move, but barely more than that.

In fact, there are darn few servo amps that were ever made that were a good
fit for that series of Gettys motor.
