Want to purchase a KB Service Manual

I know that I can buy reproductions for about $70.00, but I would be willing to pay more for an original. Anyone interested in selling?

Re: Want to purchase a KB Service Manual

Its up to you, but consider that the repro are good copys of the orignal and as with any manual, you tend to need it when your hands are dirty. Old manuals tend to have grease stains and fingerprints that can make it hard to read. $70 for a re-pro is worth the money. I have an orignal parts and re-pro service manuls, and would opt for the re-pro on the parts if I had the choice.

Re: Want to purchase a KB Service Manual

I have only seen one reproduction but it does not compare at all to an original. The reproduction I had looked like they used a cheap photocopier....the drawings text and line art were fine but the photographs were aweful.

Keep watching Ebay they come up occasionally. Be prepared I've seen them sell anywhere from $80-$180

The manual is CTS-8 if you are doing a search.
