I was so happy that the owner's manual was available. It is well written and helped me to use the radio/CD player/recorder without problems. Thanks for making it available.

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.

Pulizia e manutenzione
Prima di ogni operazione disinserite l�apparecchiatura dalla rete elettrica.
Pulizia generale
Lavate le parti smaltate con acqua tiepida e detersivo, evitando di usare prodotti abrasivi che potrebbero rovinarle. Lavare frequentemente gli spartifiamma e i cappellotti con acqua bollente e detersivo, avendo cura di togliere ogni incrostazione. Risciacquate bene con acqua le parti in acciaio inox, dopo l�uso, ed asciugatele con un panno morbido. Per le macchie persistenti usare i normali detersivi non abrasivi o prodotti specifici, comunemente reperibili in commercio. Vi raccomandiamo di non usare per la pulizia pagliette, lane di acciaio o acidi.
Le griglie del piano di cottura
Le griglie possono essere tolte dal piano di cottura per consentire una migliore pulizia. Le griglie possono essere lavate anche in lavastoviglie. Dopo il lavaggio, rimettete le griglie al loro posto, controllandone la corretta posizione.
Pulizia dell'accenditore elettrico
L'accensione automatica dei fornelli è assicurata dalla presenza di una "candeletta" in ceramica ed un elettrodo in metallo (indicati nella Fig. 1 con la lettera C). Procedete periodicamente ad una accurata pulizia di queste parti del piano. Inoltre, per evitare difficoltà di accensione, controllate che i fori della corona spartifiamma (lettera B) non siano otturati.
Pulizia delle piastre elettriche
Pulite le piastre con un panno umido. Inoltre, di tanto in tanto ungete le piastre (mentre sono ancora tiepide) con olio vegetale.
