First of all, look at this page: it's the A100 service manual online!</P>


It'll also "print" nicely to a pdf.</P>


I'll point you to some other places too, but take a peek there first.</P>

Do a search for the B3/C3 service manual also, it's free online somewhere and may have some extra info, like getting inside the thing, oiling etc.</P>


Oh! Here's one! http://www.rungroup.sk/tmp/tomas/ham..._C3_manual.pdf</P>


Patrice Gagne at http://hammondb3andleslietips.com/has a fairly expensive but useful pdf to start confidence in fixing up bits and pieces.</P>


When it comes to standard maintenance A websearch will get you all you need to know, and questions here and in places like yahoo's Hammond Zone http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/hammond_zone/and the Hammond Forum (aka Hammond Zeni) </P>


http://www.zeni.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hammond/are good also. Also browse the Hammond Wiki: http://www.dairiki.org/HammondWiki/</P>


Ask us any sticky questions and we'll either answer or find someone who can.</P>


Cheers!</P>

How long have you had the A100?</P>


I love the cabinet work on those!</P>
