8136 scantronic language change?

Our scantronic doesn't use the English language,
Polish i think.

Can I change it so it displays English text by changing the language in the options setup menu myself or will it need the attention of a qualified tradesman ?,

If I need a tradesman then roughly at what cost?, but I would really like to have a try myself.

Unfortunately you won't get a copy if you ain't in the trade,

The only mention of changing the language I could find in the manual. Utilises one of these >
