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.
Hr, klasse , good manual, verry fast on my e-mail, very usefull manual. rgds; ahm zeegers

Installing the hood to the wall
It is possible to fix the hood in position, if necessary, by only attaching it to the rear wall. Proceed as follows: 1. Drill the four holes on the wall as indicated (Fig. 11). 2. Insert the four rawl plugs supplied into these holes. 3. Screw the two mountings hooks into the top two rawl plugs (Fig. 12). 4. Dismount the spacer M (Fig. 12) from the body of the hood by unscrewing completely the two spacer fixing screws O and washers. 5. Fix the base spacer M to the wall (Fig. 12) with the two screws R 5x45 provided (Fig. 11) using either the long or the short arm, depending on the depht of the side cupboards. Do not tighten the screws fully. 6. Fix the hood to the wall by means of the two hooks P previously mounted, but first move the upper brackets S (Fig. 11) so that the front panel of the hood, once mounted, will be in line with the front edge of the cupboard doors. The two upper brackets S, located at the top rear edge of the hood may be slid backwards and forwards by loosening its fixing screws T adjacent to them on the upper hood surface (Fig. 11). 7. Check that the hood is at the right height. Minor height adjustments may be made with the screws U embodied in the brackets (see Fig. 11). 8. Tighten the two wall fixing screws R, through the two access holes N provided on the inside of the hood (Fig. 12) then fix the lower sliding frame to the hood with two screws O and washers previously unscrewed (item 4).
