Mount the iso to a virtual drive with Daemon Tools or Alcohol 120%. Winzip or WinRAR should be able to open iso's too.

an .iso file is an image of the cd, or the whole cd copied into one file. Its whats created when you copy a cd before you burn it.

Once the ISO is burnt to CD, you will find that it is a whole bunch of PDF files (like, literally hundreds) linked together into a searchable system. There is not much of a chance that you could download all of the PDF files individually and end up with it working correctly. The ISO file is a single file, easier to download and it keeps the file system intact. Hence a lot of stuff you download is in ISO format.
For those of you who easily adapt to computer technology...
Google for some free software called DAEMON TOOLS LITE...it runs on your PC, and allows you to open and mount ISO files in memory.....no need therefore to burn to disk.
Once the ISO is mounted it appears with a different drive letter name...you can mount and unmount multiple isos at the same time. Comes in handy. Give it a go...shoot me a PM if you need help.
EDIT: Savage beat me to it...lol
deamon tools works and I use it, but just make sure to untick ALL the "extras" boxes or it will install other programs and change your home page and add search bars etc.

Download WinRAR.
Install WinRAR.
Right click on iso.
Select extract to folder.
Once extracted open folder.
Open the "Magna_Verada" PDF.
Can't get any easier than that.

Go ask your kids then.
Or a neighbour who is computer literate.
Now if you offered to PAY someone . . . . you would get plenty of help. lol
Or check eBay, its available there.
Or check your local car parts shop, printed version - Gregories for example - for about $50.
Before Mitsu computerised their manuals, genuine printed workshop manuals were greatly sought after and cost a packet.

just tried google for a manual and voula there was one download instal and bingo reading all sorts of handy info. looked like the same file as the iso one but it worked so alls good in the world. rego in the coming week so yippee.
been seeing a few come through work lately all with the same oil leaks etc. found that some seals in the kits are very soft and can leak a little,had to redo a rear cam seal today on a 300k 99 exec done 3 months ago.(no shaft wear)

There in lies a big issue when people keep replacing seals when the issue is pcv and breathes. I get cars sent to me often where work is done and leaks spring back up for this reason

Thats fine, what about the breather on the rear rocker cover and more importantly the cross over pipe as well, pcv is needed of course but will be useless if the cross over pipe is all blocked up which is what usually happens, had a Triton in here this week with the same issues, crankcase too much pressure, rear main seal had let go and was only 6 months old, the mechanic cleaned the pcv but all other breathers were completely blocked and the RHS bank (rear bank if was east west motor) was getting so much pressure build up when you turn off the motor you can hear the gas escaping down into the case

MMM good point,cross over is new but failed to check rear hose. On another note went to put my TH over pits and thet pinged me for lhr window winder handle broken(sharp edges),rack boot torn?(cant see it yet),oil to be cleaned off motor/rack area(should have cleaned it spotless hey) So another hundred bucks later and i can get plates DOH
