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.
I am happy to get a rare TECHNICS SH-9090 Owner's Manual by PDF in clear copy.

Operating sequence
1. Check the filters
Ensure they are clean and properly positioned (see "Maintenance and cleaning" - Instruction book part 1).
9. At the end of the washing programme
At the end of the programme the dishwasher will automatically stop. The On/Off indicator light remains on until the On/Off push button is depressed.
2. Check that there is rinse aid and salt
(See "Instruction book - part 1")
10. Switch off the dishwasher
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push button and open the door. Wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved. Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one.
3. Load the dishes
Remove any scraps of food. Pull the lower basket out and arrange the saucepans, plates and cutlery in it. Pull the upper basket out and arrange the plates, saucers, glasses and cups etc. in it. Slide the baskets back into the machine.
4. Ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely
When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off. In general it is not advisable to open the door while the machine is working; if the door is opened however, a safety device ensures that the machine stops.
5. Measure out detergent
Add the required amount of detergent into the dispenser according to the "Washing programmes" chart. Close the detergent dispenser lid.
6. Close the dishwasher door 7. Set the programme
Turn the programme selector dial clockwise until the letter of the programme you wish to select corresponds with the programme marker on the control panel.
Important! Care must be taken if the door is opened during the hot phase or immediately after a programme has finished, as steam may escape.
8. Start the programme
Depress the On/Off push button. The On/Off indicator light will come on and the machine will start. If you wish to interrupt the washing programme at any time press this button again.
