#1 Maintenance Chart: red or black?

Post by lopena » Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:12 pm

Greetings from the colonies!

I’ve seen numerous ‘original’ Series 1 Maintenance Charts for sale on ebay and various other sites. Some Charts are printed in both red and black ink, others only in black.

Can someone please explain which charts should be red/black and which ones black only?

Many thanks indeed.

Thank you, David!

That’s what I thought.

So...all of the so-called ‘original’ black & white Maintenance Charts are reprints.

I wish sellers would be more forthright about what they’re peddling.

Many thanks indeed,

There were black-only charts in the later S1 4.2 models, beginning with the E/145/1 printing.
