The manual is one of the places were the kit shows its age. Not a single word. Only a handful of exploded views to help you to see how the parts go together. Some pre-existing experience with DJH-kits will be very helpful as they essentially all go together in very much the same way. Having built two DJH kits before I do not expect to have much difficulty. There are also some excelent building reports on various websites.
