Whilst this is a photo copy, and some of the pages are a little askew, it was all readable and intact. A real bonus finding an old manual for a classic piece of kit that no other site had.
Great stuff.
Thanks to Owner-Manuals.com! This manual was exactly what I needed. As Amana was purchased by Maytag and later by Whirlpool, there was no way to receive it from their websites. I was lucky to find this resource.

Note : Clear RF signal waveform means that the shape � � � can be clearly distinguished at the center of the waveform.
RF signal waveform VOLT/DIV : 200mV TIME/DIV : 500ns
Procedure : 1. Connect oscilloscope to TP (TEO) and TP (VC). 2. Turned Power switch on. 3. Load a disc (YEDS-18) and playback the number five track. 4. Press the gG button. (Becomes the 1 track jump mode.) 5. Confirm that the level B and A (DC voltage) on the oscilloscope waveform.

6. After check, remove the lead wire connected in step 1. RF PLL Free-run Frequency Check Procedure : 1. Connect frequency counter to test point (XPCK) with lead wire.
BD board TP (XPCK) frequency counter
2. Turned Power switch on. 3. Put the disc (YEDS-18) in to play the number five track. Confirm that reading on frequency counter is 4.3218MHz.
