Even if the PDF is a scan, I can read the information I need.
The price is affordable and the service (mail sending) is very fast.
Thanks ! Regards. William (Fan of Kenwood)
Excellent just what I needed to replace the electrolytic caps and make this old gem a beauty again. Was as scan of the original photocopied service manual.
It was helpful to get schematic with waveforms in important points and lot of service information. Manual is good quality, fast delivered. Of course it is hardcopy of paper one with all its disadvantages.
I want to give you a real heads-up for your desire to enable such people as I to acquire the information I need to maintain the older types of equipment such as this Akai HXA351W. You do a swell job with all the processes you have to perform so I can have a legible, thus usable
document which does not send me crazy trying to figure out the blurry text of a bad copy.
Very well done, Thomas.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT
RF AGC Adjustment 1. Receive a good local channel. 2. Enter the service mode signal category and select the service adjustment "AGC". 3. Set the data value to point where no noise or beat appears. 4. Select another channel to confirm that no noise or beat appears.
CHROMA ADJUSTMENT
No. Adjusting point Adjusting procedure/conditions SUB-TINT (I2C 1 1. Receive the "Color Bar" signal through AV in. BUS CONTROL) 2. Connect the oscilloscope to TP47B (Pin (5) of P882) BLUE-OUT. Range : 10 V/div. (AC) (Use probe 10:1) Sweep time : 10 µsec/div. 3. Call the "SUB-TINT" mode in service mode. Adjust the "SUB-TINT" bus data to obtain the waveform shown as Fig 1. 4. "SUB-TINT" bus data decrease 4 steps to get final waveform. (Fig 2.) 5. Clear the SERVICE mode. Waveform and others

HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL DEFLECTION LOOP ADJUSTMENT
No. Adjusting point Adjusting procedure/conditions V-SLOPE (I2C 1 1. Receive the Monoscope Pattern Signal. BUS CONTROL) 2. Call the "V-LIN" mode. 3. Increase or decrease "V-LIN" by Volume key till the horizontal line in the center of monoscope is just at the position where the blanking starts. 2 V-CENTER (I2C 1. Call the "V-CENT" mode. BUS CONTROL) 2. Increase or decrease "V-CENT by Volume key till the picture is centered. Waveform and others
3 V-AMP (I2C 1. Call the "V-AMP" mode. BUS CONTROL) 2. Increase or decrease "V-AMP" by Volume key to set overscan to 10.0% typical. Adjustment Spec 10.0% range ± 1% 4 S-CORRECTION (I2C BUS CONFIXED DATA, NO NEED TO ADJUST. TROL) 5 H-CENTER 1. Call the "H-CENT" mode. 2. Increase or decrease "H-CENT" by Volume key to center the picture horizontal. 1. Receive the "Monoscope Pattern" signal. 2. Press the R/C to set Picture NORMAL condition.
