PDF Files

I have started to encode manuals in PDF format. The PDF files contain higher resolution images than the online files, which makes them far more suitable for printing. Currently three manuals are available in this format, and more will be ready soon. You may need a PDF viewer to read PDF files. I recommend Adobe Reader, which you can download by clicking the icon below.

Tape Recorder Manuals

This section contains scanned pages from the manuals of various Ferrograph tape recorders. I hope that they will be interesting and useful to other enthusiasts.

I would like to add documentation for other Ferrograph recorders to this site. Please if you have any material that you would like to contribute.

Other Manuals

This section contains scanned pages from the manuals of other Ferrograph products, and related equipment.
