Mowing Ford 515 Sickle Mower Manual

[DK_Farms]

I picked up a 515 sickle in excellent working condition that I am using to cut a canal bank and pond bank. I called my local NH dealer and tried to order a manual. After 4 weeks of back and forth, he told me that the "Manual Department" at NH corporate had moved, and he didn't know when they would be in business again. I tried another NH dealer and he tells me he can't find any references to a 515 sickle. I have searched the manual sources on the internet and I can't find anyone that can supply one. Are there any aftermarket manual suppliers that I have overlooked? Or am I expecting a miracle?
Thanks
Ken

I just sold a 515 and included the manual (which I got from the dealer a couple years ago). But, you're in luck! I made an extra copy of the manual in case I ever bought another 515 someday. I'll be happy to scan it and send you the .jpg images. Send me a Private Mail with an email address (or just post it here if you want) and I'll send you the manual.

Thanks anyway, but I solved the problem. The solution was so simple, I'm ashamed to tell you how easy it was. Although I searched the internet for manuals, I failed to visit the New Holland web site because I "assumed" ( and we all know what that means! ) since my dealer couldn't get one from the factory, neither could I. But lo and behold, right there on the web site, was a number to call for publications. I called, made my request, gave 'em 20 bucks, and a week later I have an Operator's Manual and Parts List in my hands. Next time I'll try a little harder before crying wolf ( or trusting a dealer! ). Thanks again to all who responded.

If you still have the manual of the 515 would it be possible to get a copy? shendrix6@nc.rr.com

Just check out "ntractorclub.com" They have an excellent manuals section, which includes an owners, and parts manual for the 515 mower.
