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.

Katalyse-Set reinigen
Die Katalyse-Bleche sind selbstreinigend. Sie absorbieren Essens- und Fettspritzer, während der Backofen in Betrieb ist. Um diesen Selbstreinigungsprozess zu unterstützen, empfehlen wir, den Backofen in regelmä�igen Abständen ohne Gargut zu beheizen.

1. Alle Einschubteile aus dem Backofen entfernen. 2. Backofen-Temperatur auf 250°C einstellen. 3. Nach einer Stunde Backofen ausschalten. 4. Evtl verbliebene Reste mit einem feuchten weichen Schwamm abwischen. Achtung! Keinen Backofenspray oder scheuernde Putzhilfen verwenden. Keine Seife oder andere Reinigungsmittel verwenden. Dadurch kann das Katalyseblech beschädigt werden. Im längeren Gebrauch kann das Katalyse-Blech sich leicht verfärben. Dies hat zunächst keinen Effekt auf die katalytischen Eigenschaften. Je nach Beanspruchung sollte das Katalyseblech jedoch von Zeit zu Zeit erneuert werden.

Rengøring af katalysesættet
Katalysepladerne er selvrensende. De absorberer mad- og fedtsprøjt, mens ovnen er i brug. Til hjælp for denne selvrensende proces anbefaler vi med regelmæssige mellemrum at opvarme ovnen uden mad i.

1. Fjern alle indsatsdele fra ovnen. 2. Stil ovntemperaturen på 250 °C. 3. Sluk for ovnen efter en time. 4. Eventuelle rester tørres af med en fugtig, blød svamp. Bemærk! Undlad at benytte ovnspray eller skurende pudsemidler. Benyt ingen sæbe eller andre rengøringsmidler. Derved kan katalysepladen blive beskadiget. Efter længere brug kan katalysepladen ændre sin farve lidt. Det har i første omgang ingen indflydelse på de katalytiske egenskaber. Alt efter belastningen bør katalysepladen dog blive udskiftet fra tid til anden.
