About This Manual:    This is a high quality reproduction manual which has been scanned with a high resolution scanner.  Each page is then digitally edited in Photoshop to remove grease marks, fingerprints, writing, and other imperfections that the original manual may have had.  It is then printed on 24 lb heavy paper and 65 lb cardstock for the covers with a 600 DPI LaserJet printer.  The result is a clean and durable manual which many times is better than the original and should last many years in your shop.
