Hi Terry, To your shopping list I'd add a hood and suit to keep the sand away from your bod, and heavy rubber gloves to protect your hands. A respirator or quality dust mask is a good idea, too. Yes,

Hi Ronald, I'd recommend the light blue reprint of the original manual, as the best single source of info. Oddly, the copy I've got has no index. However, it's well organized and pretty easy to use.
