Taking the instructions to your local pub and asking the German backpackers to give you a hand.

Wootton is a very small place, but surprisingly when my Hepco Becker centre stand instructions arrived in German I had two neighbours within 1/2 a kilometre that could of translated for me. One of them, came out to Australia in the 70's and the Hepco Becker factory is a couple of villages over from where he grew up. Incidently the hardest part is the double spring set up...

It is a small world, but the term "sprechen sie deutsch" makes it even smaller.
