This place is amazing. Got our manual in a few hours. Print quality is excellent. Even the manufacturer didn't have this manual. The price was excellent. How many more stars can I give them? More than satisfied.
I'm so glad I was able to find a site to download my missing manuals. Very reasonable prices and they kept me informed about the process and I had my manual within less than a day. The only thing I wish was an option is a 100% English version with no spanish or anything. But overall great site.
The manual is complete with excellent quality! One suggestion, show number of pages and weather it is multi-lingual. The AD 600 Manuel is about 76 pages and over half is non English. This results in a larger print job than usually needed. Having this information, one could select the desired pages for printing.
I've been looking for a copy of the original user/owner manual. Just what the doctor ordered, thank you.

I. Bearing Assembly
The Teres bearing was designed to have a lot of viscous damping. This damping helps swamp the effects of stylus drag, resulting in better speed stability. For this reason heavy oil (30 weight) is provided. With heavy oil the bearing will turn smoothly but there will be a lot of resistance. This is by design. Please read this information carefully before assembling your bearing. The Teres bearing has been machined with very close tolerances. The radial clearance in the bearing is only 4 to 5 ten-thousandths. This tight tolerance results in superb stability reducing rocking to microscopic levels. However, with these tolerances it is imperative that the bearing is clean and that proper procedure is used for assembly. The objective is to have the bearing completely full of clean oil, including the recess in the top of the bearing housing. If air becomes trapped in the bearing it will not seat properly. The bearing must be assembled dry to avoid trapping air. The procedure: 1. Clean the bearing housing and spindle thoroughly. Wiping down the bearing surfaces with rubbing alcohol on lint free cloth works well.
2. Fill the recess in the bottom of the spindle with oil and press in the ball bearing. This displaces air in the recess and will hold the ball bearing in place. Be sure to completely wipe away any excess oil. 3. Place 3 to 4 drops of oil into the bottom of the bearing housing. 4.Place the brass thrust plate in the bottom of the bearing housing with the white Delrin button facing upward. The thrust plate needs to be held flat as it is lowered into the bearing. A simple method is to attach a small loop of tape to the end of a pencil. Then stick the thrust plate to the pencil and lower it in place. Be sure that the Delrin button is facing up! 5. Carefully pour 3.8ml of oil into the bearing housing without getting any oil on the sides of the bearing. 6. Insert the spindle into the bearing. The spindle will stop about 3/4" before it is fully seated. And if no air is trapped it will not feel spongy or pop up when released. If air is trapped you must start over. 7. Place the platter on the spindle. The platter will generally slide onto the spindle with
