Exactly as advertized. High quality digital copy of the Nak 610 user manual. Easy download and access. Highly recommended.

The manual was exactly what I wanted and I found it nowhere else. Thanks!

Having purchased a 1994 Kenwood music system from a Charity shop in 2013 (it was a high end product in its day), I found myself not quite knowing where to plug in what, and how to do this, that and the next thing. I needed a Manual, and after failure with another online 'Manual provider' I found Owner Manuals dot com. Well, I wasn't sure, but it was only $5, and if things didn't work out, I wouldn't have lost much...
But things DID work out. After paying my childrens inheritance money, $4.99, I was sent a Manual for my Kenwood System very quickly. Alas, it was in German, and being Scottish, I could not read it or get my system in order from it...a rapid email to them brought the English Manual in short order, and my retro-system was and IS up and running in it's regulation settings.
I am very grateful to http://www.owner-manuals.com for their quick service and for even having such an obsolete Manual in the first place! If you need a Manual for ANYTHING, try here first. I wouldn't be surprised if I bought a 1928 Marconi radio, and got the user Manual for THAT here too!
Top marks.

I was so happy that the owner's manual was available. It is well written and helped me to use the radio/CD player/recorder without problems. Thanks for making it available.

Excellant!!! Very quick and easy....Best $4.99 I have spent in a very long time..
I highly recommend this.
clamps, slide the pickup into place, then reattach the clamp(s) once it is correctly positioned. When reattaching the clamps, verify that they slide into the slot that is molded into the pickup housing. Tighten the screws snugly, but don't overdo it -- this can damage the pickup or guitar finish. If you are concerned about the possibility of the M1 damaging the instrument's finish, consider applying thin cork pads (not included) between the clamp and guitar. However, note that the clamps have been left unpadded to improve coupling between the pickup and guitar body. Because the M1 reads the top resonances that provide depth and warmth, using cork pads may dampen this sensitivity and adversely affect the pickup's responsiveness. For permanent installations, be sure to secure the wire with the two self-stick wire clips provided (this is important because of the pickup's body sensitivity).
4.USER'S
GUIDE
4.1. Package contents explained: In addition to the pickup, cables and wire clips, the box also contains a 3/32" Allen wrench and three spare pole pieces. The Allen wrench is included for pole piece adjustment (see section 4.3); spare pole pieces have been provided in two sizes. 4.2. Plugging in: The M1 will plug into practically anything with good results. Low impedance inputs such as those found on mixing boards will flatten the sound and reduce the pickup output. High impedance devices such as active direct boxes will capture all of the M1's nuances. Our Para D.I. partners well with the M1 due to its high impedance, clean gain and EQ capability. Note that the length and quality of your cord will have a large influence on the sound. This is because passive magnetic pickups interact with the cord capacitance to create a frequency peak that is a distinctive part of the tone. Long cords move this peak frequency downward, and create an edgy, "electric" tone with more midrange. Short, low-capacitance cords move the peak upward, creating an airier, more acoustic-sounding tone. These are simply general guidelines; experiment with different cables to determine the best match for your guitar and equipment. 4.3. Experiment with pole piece heights: The pole pieces on the M1 are preset for bronze acoustic strings, but this is just a starting place. They are adjustable with the 3/32" Allen wrench so you may obtain the optimum balance and tone. The height of the pole pieces relative to the strings will have a profound effect on the sound and balance of the pickup. Raising the pole pieces will increase the output of the strings; lowering them will decrease the output. For the most powerful and articulate sound we recommend setting the pole pieces as close to the strings as is practical. Lowering the pole pieces will de-emphasize the direct string output and emphasize the body sound. We have provided two additional 3/4" pole pieces for use in the B and little E string positions with nickel or electric guitar strings, and one spare 3/8" pole piece for use with acoustic sets that have an unwound "G" string. Note: When adjusting the pole pieces downward you will encounter additional resistance when you reach the bottom of the adjustment range. Do not force the pole pieces any further! This could damage the pickup permanently. 4.3. Mixing with other sources: The M1 is intended to provide a complete sound from a single passive pickup. However, you may still want to pair it with another transducer. The prewired strapjack harness has stereo output capability. You can connect the output wire from a mini-mic or another transducer to the ring terminal of this jack. Then run a stereo cord to the L.R. Baggs Mixpro or your favorite outboard gear. The M1 can easily be substituted for other soundhole pickups in an existing two-source setup. As with all two-pickup setups, you should experiment with relative phase if possible. The two sources will often mix much better in one phase than the other.
