That's the same one I have. The loose pages made scanning the entire document and converting it to Adobe soft-copy a lot easier.



Break it to me gently, how long did this take you and how did you break it up. I am looking at my one now and I know I have to do this. What I think I might do is scan it into a file per section. Boy this is going to be a lot of work but the only way to have it.



I started the process with a Lexmark all in one X75. This got old pretty quick as I had to scan one sheet at a time. It was much like doing squats (up-down up-down, you get the idea). My Lexmark went south during chapter 3 I think, so I bought a Canon MP780 sheet feed model. I was able to feed about 10 sheets at a time and the whole process sped up considerably. The only drawback was several sheets are a little crooked.

I was in no real hurry to scan, so I drug the whole process out over a couple of months. I had to scan the electrical diagrams on my work scanner (Xerox model), because they were so large. Also, the coloring did not come out on these as the scans are in .tif format, but it's nice to have everything on a single scan.

I'm extensively book marking the document in Adobe and created hyperlinks througout the manual. I still have to bookmark/hyperlink the last two sections.

I have part number T3859909-01 Issue 4, 10.2004

I've done this for personal use and I'm trying to honor "my interpretation" of the copyrighting. If you email me a scan of the page containing the part number, so I feel good about you actually owning the document, you can have a soft-copy. Keep in mind it's about 100MBs in size, so there may be some difficulty getting the document to you. But, I think I can work something out.

PM me if your interested.
