I can't download the manual for the Instant **** 7 in 1 duo 60. I'm in my senior years and eyes not perfect. Not sure if I got all the motor bikes or bridges pictures. Doing this on my phone. Also it wanted to know if I had a PayPal account. I did very many years ago. Don't think could still be active so didn't know what to answer. I just can't get it but I would like it. I have been given one as person out most of the time and only used it about a dozen times.
