I recently acquired a rather nice old 100MHz Iwatsu CRO. Despite much searching I was unable to locate a schematic/service manual. I emailed Iwatsu Japan and a few days later (today) recieved a message inviting me to download the entire manual, free of charge. Gotta be happy with service like that.
Great company.

** Most equipment makers & importers will supply downloads ( on pdf) of their old schematics - if you contact their service depts. That assumes that THEY actually operate one, subcontract warranty service people will do no such thing.Hope your Iwatsu service manual is not all in Japanese - that would make it a bit * inscrutable *.

It's not that bad. Providing you have the person there in front of you, a schematic is as good as a translator.
If all you have is a manual to work with, a well-written manual will still prove quite useful, but then again, a "well written" manual doesn't actually exist in real life...
