Summary...................

This DVD set is really for the 4500 owner that wants all the info on the machine and it's workings. There are many other tips for those with the 4000 as a lot of functions cross models. Listen carefully to all the topic's as many clues are touched on regarding discrimination, coil fields and settings still not explored to there true potential. I have only touch on the topic's as there is just so much to cover.
The most informative instructional DVD Set I have ever viewed.
