You must have gotten a pretty crummy manual.  The factory
manual for the M100-A is excellent.  I learned more about
how slug ejectors work from reading the "theory of operation"
section of the M100-A manual than I'd ever known before.
I've always tried to use the M100-A manual as a "style guide"
for the technical writing I do on the job.

Well, they're alike in the way that the AMI 40 selection
78 mechanism and the 120 selection 45 mechanism are alike,
but many of the differences in the Seeburg 78 and 45
mechanisms are at the expense of the 45 mechanism from
what I've been told (I don't have a lot of Seeburg 45
experience).  The M100-A was a real tour de force.  I can
watch it for hours.
