Bobcat Returned after 2 years. Manual question.

[Naylbender]

2 years ago I had my old 753 stolen. Not a good looking machine but it did the job. Almost 2 years to the day I received a call from a Missouri State Highway Patrol officer that said he had found a machine and believed it to be mine. He wasn't 100% because 2 of the numbers in the serial number had been copied onto the police report wrong. He knew it was stolen but couldn't get anything to show up. So he started playing with the numbers suspecting it had been copied wrong and BINGO! I gave him the serial number I had in my phone and he said, "Yup, I've got your machine". How often does that happen. They had removed the serial tag but he found out where it was stamped on the frame. Thank you to the men and women who have our backs. I never expected to see it again. I'm working on some misc fix up stuff and was wondering if there was a place on the web where I could get a owners and/or service manual? Or will I have to pay for that?

Glad they found it for you!!!! Could have been ALOT worse.
As for the manuals, I dont know of any free ones. Best thing I have found is to search ebay and find an overseas seller that has them for sale. They email you a link and you download them. By far the cheapest way. It is my understanding the american market is limited by copy write laws and that is why only overseas sellers offer manuals REALLY CHEAP.

I got one from a company in Germany for about $12. It was on a CD, but worked fine.
