Having purchased a 1994 Kenwood music system from a Charity shop in 2013 (it was a high end product in its day), I found myself not quite knowing where to plug in what, and how to do this, that and the next thing. I needed a Manual, and after failure with another online 'Manual provider' I found Owner Manuals dot com. Well, I wasn't sure, but it was only $5, and if things didn't work out, I wouldn't have lost much...
But things DID work out. After paying my childrens inheritance money, $4.99, I was sent a Manual for my Kenwood System very quickly. Alas, it was in German, and being Scottish, I could not read it or get my system in order from it...a rapid email to them brought the English Manual in short order, and my retro-system was and IS up and running in it's regulation settings.
I am very grateful to http://www.owner-manuals.com for their quick service and for even having such an obsolete Manual in the first place! If you need a Manual for ANYTHING, try here first. I wouldn't be surprised if I bought a 1928 Marconi radio, and got the user Manual for THAT here too!
Top marks.

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.

3 - Installation
Installing your new refrigerator.
The refrigerator should arrive with the front adjustable rollers wound down to tilt the top of the refrigerator backwards by about 10-15mm from upright (See Diagram 1). The stability foot should also be wound fully up so it will not interfere with the operation of the rollers (See Diagram 2). Diagram 1 1. Roll the refrigerator into its final position. WARNING: The rollers are designed for forward or backward movement only. They are not castors. Moving the refrigerator sideways may damage your floor and the rollers. 2. The top of the refrigerator should be tilted back by approximately 10-15mm. This will allow the doors to selfclose providing a consistent door seal. (See Diagram 1) It is normal for the freezer door to momentarily open and re-close when the food compartment door is closed firmly. If the freezer stays open you will need to tilt the refrigerator backwards a little further. Diagram 4 8. Clean your refrigerator thoroughly following the instructions on page 15 and wipe off any dust that has accumulated during shipping. Diagram 2 3. If the refrigerator is not tilted back, you can adjust the two front rollers by turning the large, plastic roller nut (See Diagram 2). This will increase the height of the rollers. One turn of the nut will tilt the refrigerator back approximately 10mm. If you have difficulty turning the roller nut you can have someone tilt the refrigerator back, so that you have better access. Alternatively, you can access the rollers from the side, using a flat screwdriver to help you turn the nut (see Diagram 2). 9. Plug the refrigerator into the power point. Don�t use a double adaptor. If you need to roll the refrigerator out to get at the power point, remember to raise the stabilizing foot before you do so. 10.We recommend that you let your refrigerator run for two to three hours before you put any food in it. This will allow you to check that it is operating properly and that enough cool air is going to the freezer. Congratulations! You have successfully installed your refrigerator. 4. Check the alignment of the refrigerator to the surrounding cupboards. The top of the refrigerator should be level from side to side (see Diagram 3). If you need to adjust the level, use the adjustable rollers as discussed in Step 3. 5. If the refrigerator now rocks from one corner to the opposite rear corner, this means that the floor is uneven; you will need to put some packing under one of the rear rollers.You could use thin pieces of solid material, such as thin board, vinyl floor tiles or laminate. Place the packing so that it will sit under one of the rear rollers when the refrigerator is rolled into position. 6.You may now need to fine-tune the installation by repeating Steps 3, 4 and 5. 7. When you have the refrigerator in final position wind the stabilising foot down until it just makes contact with the floor (see Diagram 4). Whenever you need to move the refrigerator, be sure to wind the foot back up so that the refrigerator can roll freely.
