What I do with those is save them to disk, then use a PDF unlocker to remove the password.

 

Here's an on-line one: http://www.pdfunlock.com/

Uncle Vinny
I was wondering how I could get my own hard copies of the document. 

I have copies I can send you by email.

Wiring a PreWar 259e steam engine
Posted by Uncle Vinny on Thursday, June 9, 2011 5:43 PM

Greetings.  I am looking for a little help.  I have an old hand-me-down 259 e steam engine prewar from my father and the wiring inside is all dry rotted and incomplete. I am partially through re-wiring but I am stumped as to how the direction unit connects to the rest of the engine.  The engine itself looks in very good condition and that is why I am spending time trying to get it to run.  In particular, I need to find out how the solenoid is connected.  I am pretty sure I have the rest OK. Is there a wiring diagram that anyone can send me or perhaps just tell me if anyone knows.  I appreciate any help.  I am a bit of a novice but I've fiddled around with this stuff somewhat.

Any help will be appreciated.  Thank you.
