The service manual is as described and received the link to the download sooner than expected. Great service, quality product. This site is a big help in the electronics repair business.
I ordered this manual sometime in the afternoon and I received it on my e-mail the same evening.
This is a fantastically good and properly scanned copy of the original manual. All pages are of the same scale and they overlap each other. It means that you can print the manual and easily make it as a convenient paper manual.
The content of the manual is fantastic. Alignment descriptions, PCB layouts and elementary diagrams are explicit and precise. I immediately found what I was looking for. Thanks to this manual and Owner-Manuals.com my amplifier is alive again. Many thanx indded!

Procedure
Note The procedure details the key presses required on the HP EPM-441A. For the HP EPM-442A the equivalent key presses should be performed on both channels. 1. Set up the DVM to measure resistance. Connect the DVM between the VRF connector on the rear panel of the HP 432A and pin 1 on the thermistor mount end of the sensor cable. Verify that no power is applied to the HP 478A 2. Round off the DVM reading to two decimal places and record this value as the internal bridge resistance (R) of the test power meter (approximately 200 �).

3. Connect the equipment as shown in Figure 3-3. The leads should be isolated from ground. Ensure that the power reference oscillator is off. Ensure that both the power meter under test and the HP 432A have been powered on for at least 30 minutes before proceeding to the next step. 4. Set the HP 432A range switch to coarse zero and adjust the front panel coarse zero control to obtain a zero meter indication. 5. Fine zero the HP 432A on the most sensitive range, then set the range switch to 1 mW. Note Ensure that the DVM input leads are isolated from chassis ground when performing the next step. 6. Set up the DVM to measure microvolts. 7. Connect the positive and negative input leads, respectively, to the Vcomp and VRF connectors on the rear panel of the HP 432A.
