49-500 alignment procedure
#1

Just finished restoring a 49-500 I picked up from a craigslist ad sometime back for $10. The thing was filthy, filthy, filthy, complete with rodent droppings, and urine stains on the chassis. It took a ton of labor and elbow-grease, but the cabinet and chassis cleaned up very nicely. New caps, a few new resistors, and she's almost back to life. I checked out the Riders alignment procedure, and there's a significant chunk of the page that's cutoff. I've downloaded all of the free copies available online, but they're all of unacceptable quality, with the same missing pieces. Can anybody set me up with a legible copy of the procedure?

Does this help?

Excellent Bob, that's perfect! Thanks so much! I see now the info wasn't missing, but rather, was just shifted off onto another page.
