Mr. Etharp:
Thanks very much for your quick response and offer to help me. When I have a more specific technical problem or question I will try and contact you. I am new to the BB and did not realize the email address would be taken out.
The reason I thought I would try and locate a factory service manual is it would help me alng the way whebn I am doing the restoration. I plan to disassessemble the machine and remove the engine and transmission in hopes to overhaul them.

In that I have the other two manuals I mentioned, I wanted to learn if Caterpillar or MCF ever printed a Service Manual. I did locate some service information on Microfiche that MCH contracted (I think) with the Bell and Howell Media firm to produce covering the Towmotor, but I was disappointed in that it was not very complete like the Printed Parts Manual I obtained from MCF. It was suggested that I try to contact some of the older dealers that might have some old manuals left over from the "Towmotor Years". Anyway thanks again for your reply and offer to help.
Respectfully
