Publisher's Synopsis
136 pages, 518 black & white illustrations, size 8.25 x 11 inches. This is a faithful reproduction of the English language section extracted from the extremely scarce BMW 600 Factory Workshop Manual, which was originally published in 4 languages. This 136 page English language edition was republished in 2012 by VelocePress. It includes complete technical data, service and maintenance information and detailed instructions for the repair and overhaul of the major mechanical and electrical components for the BMW 600 Limousine series of automobiles. As would be expected from a factory publication there are exhaustive tables of technical data, tolerances and fits. The manual is broken down into the following sections: Engine, Transmission & Differential, Rear Suspension, Front Suspension, Steering, Brakes, Chassis, Body, Electrical Equipment, Special Equipment (Saxomat). There are 518 illustrations and each procedure is explained in a step-by-step method using an appropriate illustration. There is adequate detailed text and diagrams to assist in major refurbishing such as an engine rebuild or even a complete mechanical renovation, making it an invaluable resource for collectors and restorers of these iconic automobiles. The translation from German to English is, at times, a little quirky but the profuse illustrations make up for any difficulty in understanding what needs to be done! Originals of this manual are becoming increasingly more difficult to find on the secondary market and on the rare occasions they surface they command astronomical prices. Consequently, we are pleased to be able to offer this reasonably priced alternative as a service to all BMW 600 enthusiasts worldwide.
