The "search" function is disabled. If, after your "first read-through" you want to review the "Short Circuit" mode of MIG-welding you cannot use the Search "magnifying glass" to reach that point in the text. This is a content-full book...and you WILL need/want to review aspects. Why anyone would wish to disable the Search Function, I cannot imagine.
