Owners Manual?

Looking through my envelope of papers that came with the trailer, and don't see much in the way of an overall manual.

There are 'cut sheets' and specific manuals for many of the large items (Aircon, furnace, fridge, etc).

Is this normal, or am I missing some info?

That's what I got for a new one in 2004, I purchased a motorhome mechanics book from good sam club and sure paid off I'm not aware of any Manual for the coach in itself but you should have a ford book if you have a ford chassis or whatever you have Good Luck Good Sam is the best deal check it out copout67

The owners manual is a waste of a good tree. The one that came with my Flagstaff in 2004 covered everything from pop-ups to motorhomes, and doesn't do it very well. It sounds like you got the various manuals for the major components of the rig, so all you need is a good general purpose RV manual that can be purchased either through a dealer, camping store, or as previously mentioned, Good Sam club.

mn 308,

This is normal.
The manuals are not unit specific. They are mostly generic. Separate manuals for each appliance.

I did as copout67 and purchased a manual. I got a copy of Bob Livingston's RV Repair & Maintenance manual. It's loaded with good information.

That is pretty much normal and what I received with my Roo.

I think an RV owners manual is actaully an urban myth. I don't think they really exist. Or maybe big foot has one!

I think the owners manual will come in hand one day.


I keep it stored under the sink in the bathroom near the toilet, in case I run out of paper.
