Free For SASE: Well, maybe I am the last to come across this, but I recently found a repair manual for the Simpson 260 Series VOMs. This was published by Sears, of all people, in 1976. Here are the details:
"Sears Simpson 260 Meter Repair Program Division 92 Source 260" dated May, 1976. This is about 20 8.5x11 pages with many pictures and schematics. This covers all tests and repairs EXCEPT switch replacement. Switch replacement is not covered (it refers you to Simpson for a factory repair). Models covered are Series 3, 4, 5, 5P, 6 and 6P. Specifics: Lengthy troubleshooting chart, Overload Relay Adjustment, Calibration of all ranges and theory of operation. Photos show parts placement (like a Sams does) and schematics for each model are provided. Anyway, if you want a copy, just send me an 8.5x11 envelope with four 37 cent stamps on it and your address. I will stuff the envelope and mail it back to you the same day. No need to reply to this e-mail. Don't send stamps or cash--just the SASE. Address below. With any luck, the 260 will be being used by techs long after we are gone... 73, Don Merz, N3RHT 47 Hazel Drive Pittsburgh, PA 15228 The information contained in this e-mail may be confidential and is intended solely for the use of the named addressee.
