There are no new manuals, nor have there been any, for over 20 years. A manual for the current GT would cover most features but Linhof doesn't really have a GT manual. The operating elements are described in the GT brochure and these are mostly the same as the B controls.

Do be particularly aware that any part or accessory that mounts directly to the monorail of the B are out of production and out of stock for more then 20 years at Linhof and their distributors. That includes spare rail clamps, rail caps, rails, intermediate standards, etc. Any accessory that fits directly to the front or rear standard are available and are the same as the ones for the GT/GTL. Special accessories like the Spacer that allows one to make vertical shots with the back positioned vertically or use a Polaroid holder are no longer available either.
