ManualMan specializes in amateur radio, audio, and radio-related manuals
primarily from manufacturers who no longer support certain older equipment models
or from manufacturers who no longer exist. ManualMan always recommends you
check the availability of needed manuals from the original equipment manufacturer first.
An original manual on a complex piece of electronic equipment (with multi-layer boards,
path layouts, complex schematics, color layer identification, etc.) is always easier
to read than a replication. If the manufacturer can no longer supply the information you
need, ManualMan would be happy to serve you.

Provide This Service in a Professional & Dedicated Manner
All manuals are prepared to look "like new." This means that all
markings, notes, hand-drawn pictures, etc. will be removed (as best
as possible) from the original before a replication will be made.
Depending on the condition of the original, there may be sections,
paragraphs, or entire pages that may have to be retyped. All reproductions
are done back-to-back or as the original dictates. If, in the process of
providing a replication of a schematic, assembly drawing, or specialized layout,
and sheet bonding is required due to an unusual sheet size, ManualMan will
provide this service at no additional charge. Complex schematics
are generally enlarged to fit on 11 x 17 sheets. Large schematics are
generally replicated full size. Schematics are not cut up to fit on 8.5 x 11 sheets.

Once again thank you for the nice work you did on the manuals.
If it was not for the B&W reproduction, you would think these
manuals came from the manufacturer!

Thanks a million for the super service on the SP-600 manuals, they
arrived today. They are beautiful! Maybe I can get this old gal up

Thanks again

Got the Tandberg manual today. Fabulous job! It's just what I was looking for. I'll keep you in mind for my future needs. It looks like an original, is it, or is it a copy?
|
01/08/2007: Randy
I received the manuals today. I'm very impressed. If I did not know, it would be difficult to tell that they were not originals; the fold-out schematics look great.
|
07/05/2006: Harry Vaught, KT4AE
Pete, I just received the Dynaco AF-6 manual I ordered last week. I have manuals from several other vendors, but of them all, this is the best copy and most nicely presented.
Regards,
Harry Vaught, KT4AE, Maryville, Tennessee
