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.
The manuel was exactly what I needed and I received it promptly. Thanks

4. Instruction for the Installer
q The side walls of the unit in which the hob is going to be installed, must not exceed the height of the working top. q Avoid installing the appliance in the proximity of inflammable materials (e.g. curtains, tea towels etc.). q The following instructions about installation and maintenance must be carried out by qualified personnel in compliance with the regulation in force. The regulation to be applied for this type of installation is NBN D 5I.003 : "Installations functioning with combustible gas lighter than air". q The appliance must be electrically disconnected before all interventions. If any electric supply to the appliance is required to carry out the work, ensure all the necessary precautions are followed.
GAS CONNECTION
It is indispensible that the connection to the gas mains are carried out by means of an AGB tap. Choose fixed connections or use a flexible pipe in AGB (stainless steel). If using flexible metallic pipes, be careful they do not come in contact with mobile parts or they are not squeezed. Use the same attention when the hob is combinated with an oven. This hob can be operated by Slochteren gas (G25) with a nominal pressure of 25 mbar or by natural gas with nominal pressure of 20 mbar. No regulation is required for use by these two types of gas. Before fitting the appliance ensure that the installation has the correct voltage for the appliance. At full capacity, the drop in pressure must not exceed 5%. Such a drop in pressure is caused by the following parameters: maximum capacity of meter; diameter and lenght of the tube in front and behind the meter; section of transit of variuos tubes positioned on the circuit; diameter of eventual connections.
A) Ramp with ending nut B) Seal C) Adjustable connection
IMPORTANT - To ensure a correct operation, a saving of energy and the long-life of the appliance, the voltage pressure of the appliance must correspond to the recommended values. The adjustable connection is fixed to the comprehensive ramp by means of a threaded nut GJ 1/2". Interpose the sealing between the components as shown in fig. 3. Screw the parts without forcing, adjust the connection in the required direction and tighten everything. The adjustable connection allows the feeding pipe to be situated in the site purposefully allocated on the side of the protection box of the hob itself (Fig. 4). This connection allows the overall dimensions of the hob plus the fedding pipe to be contained into a depth of 30 mm. IMPORTANT - When the final connection has been made, it is essential that a thorough leak test is carried out on the hob and installation. Use some soapy water, never a flame.
