[Staowners] Lubrication Chart (was Alpine Owners manual)

[Bob Hamilton]

Hi,

I have had an original, unused Maintenance Chart 
scanned in colour to the original size and can 
supply very original prints (sample below) that 
can be either laminated or dry-mounted to be hung 
in your garage for quick reference.

Regards,
Bob
