The owners manual is very good. all my how to questions were answered in detail.
;
Irrespectively of this manual exist only germany language, it's useful - although i need some additional task to translate: My english is bad, but usable - but i really dont speak germany. :)
;
Excellent service from this company (including a total refund on an earlier purchase when through no fault of the company the manual was incomplete). I have purchased several manuals which I have been very satisfied with, as I am with this one. Highly recommended.
;
It was easy to order and received exactly what I needed. Only complaint would be the 24 hours you have to wait.
;
Manual was delivered in a timely manner and was all in English as advertised. The manuals I received when we moved into our flat were in German, Italian, and French. Having never used a steamer before, and not speaking/reading German very well, I needed an English Manual. this was a huge help.
About the Mesh Head
Replacing the Head
When the Head Should Be Replaced
The head is an expendable item that eventually will wear out and need to be replaced. Replace the head when the following occurs: � The head surface is torn � Striking points are no longer detected correctly, even when the head tension is properly adjusted. � Slack portions remain in the head even after the head tension is properly adjusted.
6. Pass the tuning bolts through the washers, then attach them to the hoop and frame. 7. Next, adjust the tension of the head. Refer to �Adjusting the Head Tension� (p. 6).
Do not firmly tighten a single tuning bolt by itself. Doing so will make it impossible to tension the head evenly, and will cause malfunctions such as failure to accurately detect the striking location.
About the Lock Bushings
The KD-80 and the PD-80R are provided with lock bushings to prevent rotation and loosening of the tuning bolts caused by vibration transmitted from the hoop. If a lock bushing happens to become separated from the frame while the head is being replaced, position the bushing so its four slots are aligned with the corresponding ridges in the frame, then press down firmly on the bushing.

Replacing the Head
1. Remove all tuning bolts and washers.
When replacing the head of the KD-80 or the PD-80R, press the lock bushing (in figure below) in place with your finger as you remove each tuning bolt, to prevent the bushings from being pulled off the frame. Only the KD-80 and the PD-80R are provided with lock bushings.
