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.

Thanks so much for the Owner's manual for my Sony PS - FL1. I had purchased the turntable off of eBay. It came in and looked great. Packed well and appeared to be great. I balanced and aligned the tone are and hooked it up. When trying to play a record the tone are would move to the right place and just before it would drop to play it moved back off the edge of the record before touching down. I searched the net for an answer to this issue. No luck. Then I purchased the owners manual and sure enough there was a place to adjust where the stylus touched down. That adjustment solved the problem and saved me a $35 feet to have the player checked out. The manual is well written and easy to understand. It is a must have for anyone with this front loading Sony turntable.
Some years back I pruchased a Sansui G-9000. I had it cleaned up and a problem with the left channel repaired. When I got it back I hooked it up to my tape decks, turn tables, TV and it played great. The only thing I was not really satisfied with was the performance of my Graphic Equalizer. I purchased this owner's manual had poured myself a cup of coffee. The manual is well organized and written in plain language. It also contained the solution to my dissatisfaction. By using the preamp connections coupled I was able to run everything through my graphic equalizer and now enjoy the full potential of my complete system.
An excellent service for the price, however, it would also have been handy if the troubleshooter pages were included. The manual is only sent in the language of your country, thus it looks as though there are some pages missing. Otherwise highly recommended.

CHECKING LID CUT-OFF DEVICE
Lift the lid. Turn one hotplate burner tap to its full on position and push the ignition button. Close lid. There should now be no gas supply to the hotplate and the burner will go out. Turn off the hotplate tap and lift the lid. The gas supply should now be restored to the hotplate when the tap is turned on.
10. CHECKING THE MAIN OVEN
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Turn the oven thermostat knob to Mk 9 and press the ignition button. As soon as the burner is alight the button can be released. There should now be a low gas rate to the burner, which is the F.S.D. by pass rate. When the F.S.D. phial has heated up it opens the F.S.D. valve which allows the main gas supply to the oven burner. Set the oven control to Mk 2, close the oven door and check that after about 10 minutes the flame size has reduced. Turn off the control and check that the oven flames go out. If there is a fault refer to the Fault Finding Guide on Page 12.
