I am looking for an e-mail site for a free down load owner/operator manual for a 1530 John Deere

Have you tried John Deere? They have a lot of online manuals for free downloads.

I have never found John Deere offering even operators manuals for free. Everything has a price in the JD world unless another member has what you want.

I just checked again on both the USA site and the Canadian site.

Searched and found the part number for the 1530 operator's manual. Told to go to parts site to purchase.

OML29382 is part number.

From their site:

Publications for Model '1530 UTILITY TRACTOR BASE UNIT'

Following is a listing of all publications matching the search criteria. Publications available in electronic format are indicated by a hyperlinked Part Number. Visit the John Deere Technical Information Store to purchase Operator's Manuals, Parts Catalogs, Technical Manuals, and other publications that are not available in electronic format.

This will seem kind of funny but in Australia there are three libraries who have book copies of 1530 manuals for free loans to members.

Amazon sells them for $23

Operators manual doesn't really tell you much, what kind of info are you looking for? There is lots of ops manuals that can be viewed for free on the public site but for the most part availability of a hyperlinked manual starts at about 2000. So they have really only been loading the op's manuals to view for about 18 years now so am not terribly surprised that the 40 year old ops manual is not loaded as view able.

Not all but some select JD operators manuals are available for viewing/downloading on JD's website. Unfortunately 1530 tractor isn't among the selected OM's for viewing for free.

As Jim wrote, JD has many owners manuals (not the technical manuals) online free, but not for the 1530 as Jim also wrote.

Link: John Deere Ag - New Equipment: Technical Publications - Equipment Search

Another: John Deere Technical Information Store

As an example, here is the OM for my 3720 CAB tractor: OMLVU25574_H2
