Operator's Manual for 15" Asian Planer

Here are links to the 16 pages of the operator's manual that came with the machine that I bought new, back in about 1986.
It has worked out pretty well for me.
Sorry, but I am not very good at pdf files, and besides. I wanted to make sure that the images are stored with the highest possible resolution:
