operating handbook

Please, does this mean that the product itself is converted to adopt this operating handbook? Doesn't make sense to me. Emotion: smile Thank you.

"This arrangement of the operating instruction is the only possibility to make up individual operating instructions in spite of the enormous number of possible combinations and should this metering system be converted to adapt the operating handbook."

The text is very poor English indeed, written by someone who does not know the language very well. The first part says that the manual is the only authoritative method, but frankly I have no idea what is meant by the phrasing after 'and'.

I think the part after the and means- if the way that measuring occurs changes then change this handbook. It could be his boss of the operating handbook told him to write it in the most convoluted way possible or its a translation from Japanese by lowly paid Chinese translators. The Japanese couldn't do any better anyway.
