I looked through it a few times and thought it was poorly organized. The pictures were not in the correct place to match a procedure.
I used to hate the Haynes manuals for that very same reason. UNtil I figured out their photo labelling process. Yes the photos may not always be right next to the paragraph that refers to them ut that is the nature of the beast when trying to optimize print layout and minimize page count. But the thing to realise is that the photo numbers correspond to the section.paragraph and has nothing to do with chapter number. So if in Chapter 4 Section 3 paragraph 5, the narrative will simply say "see illustration" and you have to look for illustration 3.5 somewhere on the page. Since realizing that I have never had any issues ... other than the greyscale photos are not always as clear as I'd like them to be. Other than that I find them quite adequate.
