The following manuals are available for free download both standard html and in Adobe Acrobat format. Please note that the illustrated manuals have fairly large file sizes and will take several minutes to download unless you are on a high-speed internet connection.

Although these manuals are copyrighted, permission is granted to print out any reasonable number of copies for previewing the kits, or for use with the kits, or for any classroom or laboratory use within your educational institution.

The Acrobat files are intended mainly for those who need to print out several copies of the manuals. For reading from the computer screen, may be better to use the web (HTML) files. To view the manuals in html format (as a standard web page) click the appropriate model number:
