There is also Richard Sleigh's "Straighten Up and Tune Right" available from customharmonicas.com, and my book, Harmonica For Dummies, has a chapter on basic repair and maintenance, with pictures and detailed descriptions of basic procedures (available form amazon.com and most other online sellers).
Also, if you subscribe to bluesharmonica.com, Kinya Pollard and Joe Spiers are both available to answer your repair and tweaking questions. Kinya also writes a column for the free online magazine harmonicasessions.com

The late (great) Douglas Tate wrote a good book about chromatic harmonica

That would be a good place to start!
