Default wkndracer trying to start with PPS classic

PPS Analysis, Feedback and Assistance- Please read by Art_Giacosa
I read this first prior to posting so lets see how bad I can mess this up. My username starts the tittle line and I'm going from there.
I downloaded, printed and repeatedly read Edwards articles under "Introducing the PPS-Classic"
I made notes and started formulating a plan to switch from EI to PPS.
All was well until reading the following: http://ca.geocities.com/pps@rogers.com/FAQ.PPS.doc
From page #1
"How many solutions do I need?
The program needs four solutions, the SS, PF, Mg and TE.

How do I make the solutions?
Find four 500ml bottles and mix the following solutions.
"
What happened to the Nitrate Free solution? And don't I need a fifth bottle?

From page #2
"Test once your NO3 & PO4. Dose the same amount every day for one week. Then test your NO3 & PO4. Correct your SS and PF solution dosing amount."
Selected my tank size from the references listed.
"( 75 gall / 300 liter ) 4 ml SS, 8 ml PF, 1 ml Mg, 1 ml TE"
Am I understanding to dose BOTH SS and PF solutions?

N,P,K Relationship Volume 2, Issue 1, page 2, paragraph 3, solution substitutions.
http://ca.geocities.com/pps@rogers.c....Potassium.pdf

This states if imbalances exist to substitute for the SS solution with either the NF or PF solutions and dose the same mL as dosed with the SS solution.

I have problems understanding as the information seems to conflict with other sections and would really like some help.
