I went online and downloaded and printed my own assembly manual. I had read it completely twice before my K3 arrived. I could not have done this if I had to wait for a printed manual to come with my radio and most likely would not have read it as carefully as I did waiting for my K3. I was not in a rush to get-er-done. I learned a lot studying the assembly instructions without having the radio parts to look at and many times I had to read a passage carefully more than once to understand what they were talking about since I could not look at the part or area of the radio pictured. I would not want to bypass the experience and knowledge gained by printing my own instructions. I did not use the book that came with the radio as I had a newer one downloaded that had just been released when my radio arrived.
